i.e. same as in chatgpt ui

@louis030195 Here is a demo of how I got actions to work with assistant. It consists of the following steps:

1. Provide a OpenAPI spec
2. Generate functions from the spec (in parallel)
3. Generate HTTP request functions from the spec (in parallel)
4. Whenever the function from the OpenAPI spec is called, send the args to the generated HTTP request function.
5. Return the results as the tool outputs.
6. Done.

As an action this whole process should happen automatically in the assistant backend.

The expectation is to be able to pass a tool like so:

client.beta.assistants.create(
    name="Action assistant",
    tools=[
        # ...    
        {
            "type": "action",
            "openapi_spec": """
                openapi: 3.0.0
                ...
            """
        } # this tool will execute autonimously
    ]
)

For simplicity here are the features that I think can wait until after the initial release:

• authentication
  • (more so can wait) multiple authentication schemas
• is consequential flag
• OpenAPI reference mapping

should be easy to implement after merging https://github.com/stellar-amenities/assistants/pull/62
