Tools

Tools are core functional components in AI Asset used to enhance the capabilities of Agents and MCPs, representing the specific actions AI can perform, such as information retrieval, data processing, content generation, or system interaction.

Types of Tools​

Tools in AI Asset are divided into two categories: built-in tools and custom tools.

Built-in Tools (System Presets)​

These are pre-developed and integrated by the platform, ready to use out of the box. Users do not need to write code or perform additional configuration; they only need to enable them directly in the configuration interface of an Agent or MCP.

Features:

  • Easy to use and plug-and-play
  • Suitable for general business scenarios (such as file processing, calculation, text summarization, etc.)
  • Stable and reliable, with continuous maintenance and updates by the platform

System Built-in Tools​

  1. Google Search: Provides real-time and extensive information from the internet.

  2. Tencent Search: Provides web information retrieval capabilities based on Tencent Search services, suitable for precise searches of Chinese content.

  3. Bing Search: Powered by Microsoft Bing, supporting comprehensive retrieval of global multilingual web pages, images, videos, and other information.

  4. G-Bing Search: Provides comprehensive search capabilities, balancing retrieval breadth and result accuracy, suitable for scenarios with high requirements for information quality.

  5. Metaso Search: Provides efficient and accurate search services, enabling users to quickly locate and return the information they need. It is suitable for daily query scenarios that require fast fact-checking, information lookup, or concise answers.

  6. Web Page Reading: With this tool, users can specify a URL, and the system will automatically read the content of the web page. This feature is highly suitable for users who need to extract information from web pages, such as obtaining data from news websites, blogs, or any public web pages.

  7. Text-to-Image: This tool uses the DALL-E interface to generate images. Users can input descriptive text, and the system will generate corresponding images based on those descriptions. This tool is suitable for scenarios requiring visual content generation, such as design, artistic creation, and educational use.

  8. News Query Tool: This tool allows users to query the latest news information. Through simple instructions, users can quickly obtain news reports on specific topics or keywords, helping them stay informed about current hot events and information trends in a timely manner.

Advantages of Built-in Tools

  • Convenience: Users can use these tools directly without additional development or configuration.
  • Diversity: Covers multiple functions such as news queries, web content extraction, image generation, and online search to meet different needs.
  • Efficiency: Through integrated automated services, users can complete tasks and obtain information more efficiently.

Custom Tools (User-Built)​

These are developed or configured by users themselves according to their own business needs or specific scenarios. Through custom tools, users can enable Agents to perform exclusive tasks or call internal enterprise system interfaces.

  • Flexibility: Users can customize tools according to their own needs to enhance the capabilities of intelligent agents.
  • Adaptability: Two creation methods, Python and API, meet the needs of different users and can handle everything from simple to complex scenarios.
  • Scalability: Custom tools can extend more functions through programming, making the system better aligned with business processes and scenario requirements.

Application Value​

  • Improve efficiency: Enable AI to directly perform operations rather than only answer questions.
  • Lower the barrier: Built-in tools can be used immediately without additional development.
  • Support customization: Custom tools can precisely match enterprise business logic and processes.

By flexibly combining built-in and custom tools, users can quickly build more powerful and better-tailored intelligent agents or system integration solutions, allowing AI to truly participate in daily work and business execution.
