Internal Tools¶
Internal tools are the built-in tools your AI assistant uses on your behalf — reading a web page, generating an image, searching your documents, and many more. You don't call these tools directly; you ask your assistant in plain language ("read this page and summarize it") and it picks the right tool for the job.
This section gives each tool its own page with a closer look at what it does, when it's useful, and how to get the most out of it.
How this relates to capabilities¶
Which tools an assistant can use is determined by the capabilities attached to its agent. The Internal Capabilities page is the catalog — it lists every internal capability (like base, web_search, or documents) and the tools each one provides.
The pages in this section zoom in on individual tools from that catalog. If a tool you want to use isn't available, check that the agent has the capability that provides it.
Tool reference¶

More tool pages will be added here over time.
