Expand description

An executable tool the framework can invoke locally.

Required Methods§

Source

fn name(&self) -> &str

The tool name exposed to the model.

Source

fn description(&self) -> &str

A human/model-readable description.

Source

fn parameters_schema(&self) -> Value

The JSON Schema describing the tool’s parameters.

Source

fn invoke<'life0, 'async_trait>( &'life0 self, arguments: Value, ) -> Pin<Box<dyn Future<Output = Result<Value, Error>> + Send + 'async_trait>>
where 'life0: 'async_trait, Self: 'async_trait,

Execute the tool with the given JSON arguments.

Provided Methods§

Source

fn invoke_in_context<'life0, 'life1, 'async_trait>( &'life0 self, arguments: Value, _ctx: &'life1 FunctionInvocationContext, ) -> Pin<Box<dyn Future<Output = Result<Value, Error>> + Send + 'async_trait>>
where 'life0: 'async_trait, 'life1: 'async_trait, Self: 'async_trait,

Execute the tool with access to the surrounding FunctionInvocationContext (the agent session, middleware metadata, …).

The function-invocation loop calls this method; the default implementation ignores the context and delegates to Tool::invoke, so ordinary tools need not care. Override it for tools that read the invocation context — the Rust analogue of an upstream FunctionTool whose function declares a ctx: FunctionInvocationContext parameter (e.g. the Agent::as_tool wrapper, which forwards ctx.session to the sub-agent when propagate_session is enabled).

Dyn Compatibility§

This trait is dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety".
