In the previous part of the Build A Basic AI Agent From Scratch series, we built the most basic AI agent harness possible.
It was just a connection to a model, a way to take user input, a store of context of the conversation and a loop that kept the agent running.
Of course, this agent is not very useful. It can only interact by taking your input and answering you based on its internal knowledge.
If we want our agent to be more useful and do work in behalf of us, we have to give it a way to give it some way to take actions in its environment. In this case, the computer it's running on. The way you allow an agent to take actions in your computer is with tools.
What are Tools?
