Tools

In Orion101, tools define an agent's capabilities and shape how it interacts with the world around it. Tools enable agents to perform specific tasks and extend their functionality to meet the needs of diverse use cases.

To demonstrate the possibilities tools offer, here are a few examples:

• Drafting and composing emails

• Sending messages to platforms like Slack

• Retrieving and analyzing the contents of web pages

The Tools page provides a comprehensive list of all the built-in tools available within Orion101, along with any custom tools you’ve created. Orion101’s built-in tools are designed to cover a wide range of essential tasks and are open-source, making them accessible for exploration and modification. For access to the source code, visit the tools repository provided by Orion101.

Creating Custom Tools

For developers looking to expand the functionality of their agents, Orion101 supports the creation of custom tools tailored to specific requirements. Custom tools allow you to enhance your agents’ abilities and integrate them seamlessly with unique workflows, APIs, or services.

To learn how to create your own tools, refer to the Tool Authoring Guide available in the Orion101 documentation. This guide walks you through the process of defining, implementing, and integrating custom tools into your agents.

By leveraging the flexibility and power of tools, Orion101 ensures that agents can adapt to virtually any scenario, offering unparalleled functionality and customization.
