PraisonAI Tools Creator GPT

Guide for using the PraisonAI Tools Creator GPT to quickly develop and implement custom tools for PraisonAI

from praisonaiagents import Agent, tool

@tool
def hello(name: str) -> str:
    """Greet someone by name."""
    return f"Hello, {name}!"

agent = Agent(name="Demo", tools=[hello])
agent.start("Say hello to Alex using the hello tool")

The user prototypes a custom tool with the Tools Creator GPT, then runs it through a PraisonAI agent.

PraisonAI Tools Creator GPT

Use PraisonAI Tools Creator GPT to get started quickly.

Quick Start

1. Set API key

   export OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key
   
2. Create an agent

   from praisonaiagents import Agent
   
   agent = Agent(
       name="GPTAgent",
       instructions="Answer questions accurately and concisely.",
       llm="gpt-4o",
   )
   
   agent.start("Explain quantum entanglement in simple terms")
   

Best Practices

Use GPT-4o for complex reasoning

GPT-4o handles multi-step reasoning and tool use better than smaller models.

Set temperature appropriately

Use lower temperature (0.1-0.3) for factual tasks and higher (0.7-0.9) for creative tasks.

Use structured outputs for predictable responses

Enable JSON mode when you need parseable, structured output from the agent.

Use GPT-4o-mini for simpler subtasks

Route simpler subtasks to GPT-4o-mini to reduce costs while keeping quality high.
