Tool Selection Strategy
by AaaS · open-source · Last verified 2026-03-17
Covers heuristics and learned strategies for agents to select the right tool from a large catalog given a task description, including embedding-based tool retrieval, LLM-based routing, and multi-step tool chaining. Teaches fallback hierarchies, tool description engineering, and cost-aware selection to minimize unnecessary API calls.
