How Tools Work

Tool Loading

Tools are loaded dynamically based on:

1. Integration Installed - Is the package available?
2. Credentials Configured - Are API keys set?
3. Team Settings - Is the tool enabled?

Example log output:

slack_tools_loaded: count=4
github_tools_loaded: count=16
kubernetes_tools_loaded: count=9
aws_tools_loaded: count=8

Configuring Tools

Enable/Disable

{
  "tools": {
    "kubernetes": {
      "enabled": true
    },
    "docker_exec": {
      "enabled": false
    }
  }
}

Per-Agent Configuration

{
  "agents": {
    "investigation_agent": {
      "disable_default_tools": ["shell", "docker_exec"],
      "enable_extra_tools": ["custom_runbook_search"]
    }
  }
}

Tool Metrics

All tools track:

• tool_calls_total{tool_name, status} - Call count
• tool_duration_seconds{tool_name} - Execution time

View in Prometheus or the Web UI under Agent Runs.
