The documentation on tools is currently a bit too obtuse for me. I'm left with some questions:
What happens when the model decides to use a tool? Does that function get called? With what, the entire query, or something else? Is this process repeated multiple times, or is it just a once-off? What does the second call have as inputs? Just the context?
Maybe I need a better example, but what I'm thinking of is a sort of functiony "smart home" helper, where you tell the AI to return a function to be called, such as toggle_lights("bedroom", "on").
Are these tools meant to enhance the context of the AI instead? Maybe that should be mentioned in the docs. I just can't grok it at all right now, because I'm not sure of the intended use case that tools are looking to solve.
