Agent with Tools

Attach WebSearchTools to an agent to answer a question with current web results.

Code

tool_use.py

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.models.anthropic import Claude
from agno.tools.websearch import WebSearchTools

agent = Agent(
    model=Claude(id="claude-sonnet-4-6"),
    tools=[WebSearchTools()],
    markdown=True,
)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    agent.print_response("What are the latest developments in fusion energy?")

Agno converts each function into Anthropic’s name, description, and input_schema tool shape. It executes returned tool_use blocks and sends the matching tool_result blocks back to Claude.

Agno 2.7.2 leaves Anthropic tool selection automatic because the adapter omits Agent.tool_choice from the request.
