crewAI Tools

This document provides a comprehensive guide for setting up sophisticated tools for crewAI agents, facilitating the creation of bespoke tooling to empower your AI solutions.

In the realm of CrewAI agents, tools are pivotal for enhancing functionality. This guide outlines the steps to equip your agents with an arsenal of ready-to-use tools and the methodology to craft your own.

Creating Your Tools

Tools are always expect to return strings, as they are meant to be used by the agents to generate responses.

There are three ways to create tools for crewAI agents:

Subclassing BaseTool

from crewai_tools import BaseTool

class MyCustomTool(BaseTool):
    name: str = "Name of my tool"
    description: str = "Clear description for what this tool is useful for, you agent will need this information to use it."

    def _run(self, argument: str) -> str:
        # Implementation goes here
        pass

Define a new class inheriting from BaseTool, specifying name, description, and the _run method for operational logic.

Utilizing the tool Decorator

For a simpler approach, create a Tool object directly with the required attributes and a functional logic.

from crewai_tools import tool
@tool("Name of my tool")
def my_tool(question: str) -> str:
    """Clear description for what this tool is useful for, you agent will need this information to use it."""
    # Function logic here

The tool decorator simplifies the process, transforming functions into tools with minimal overhead.
