Tool Framework β Structured tool definitions with schema, validation, and retry.
Tools are the agent's interface to the world. This module provides:
- Tool base class with JSON schema, input validation, retry logic
- Built-in tools (search, calculator, python_exec, file_read)
- Tool registry with semantic search (for Tool RAG with SLMs)
- Automatic tool documentation generation for prompts
SLM optimization: Tools are formatted with minimal token overhead.
For small context windows, use ToolRegistry.get_relevant_tools()
to retrieve only the k most relevant tools (TinyAgent pattern).
