17/// A custom tool implemented entirely in Rust with strongly-typed parameters.
18///
19/// Define your parameters as a struct deriving [`serde::Deserialize`] and
20/// `JsonSchema`, then implement this trait to provide the tool's logic.
21/// The JSON Schema sent to the model is derived automatically from the
22/// params struct — doc comments on fields become parameter descriptions.
23///
24/// Tools are async: for I/O-bound work (HTTP, filesystem, subprocess) the
25/// runtime stays unblocked. Sync tools just don't `.await` anything — the
26/// compiler optimizes the state machine to an immediate return.
