set tools / shelf tools

LLM context: ~489 tokens when loaded (prompt or tool definition)

Where it runs

Part of the tools set, used in workflow and agent mode. What the model is told about each built-in tool: its description, usage notes and parameters. kdeps runs the tool itself.

  1. the agent loop builds the request
  2. the tool definitions are sent to the modeltools/http_request
  3. the model calls a tool
  4. kdeps runs it
  5. the result goes back to the model

Loaded by: kdeps (agent loop), /update, /settings, kdeps run, kdeps install, kdeps list, kdeps uninstall, kdeps update

In the code: kdeps (agent loop)agent.RegisterBuiltinToolsagent.definedAs

A kdeps asset: installed with the first-run profile that includes its set, or the first time a command needs it, and updated without a new release.
