Tools

Tools are the most granular way agents interact with systems you have integrated with Ava. Each tool encapsulates a specific operation---query, create, update, clone, or other supported actions---against the target application, with parameters defined in a structured contract.

The platform lets you author custom tools through a guided flow: provide a name, display name, description, JSON definition, and the application the tool should call. Once created, you attach those tools to custom agents so Ava knows when and how to invoke them during a conversation.

Tool definitions should follow your integration team’s standards for least privilege: expose only the operations and fields each agent truly needs.
