The tools you have created can now be selected in AI assistant settings, giving your AI assistants more powerful capabilities. This guide explains how to configure the tools you have created for a specific AI assistant.
First, navigate to the "AI Features" section from the left navigation bar, then click "AI Assistants". This will display a list of all AI assistants created in your account.
In the AI assistant list, find the assistant you want to configure tools for, and click the "Edit" button to enter the detailed settings page for that assistant.
Important prerequisite: Only AI assistants set to Agent Mode can use tools. If your AI assistant is in another mode (e.g., General (Default) response mode), you cannot configure or use tools for it.
On the AI assistant's settings page, switch to the "Response Mode Settings" page tab.
Check: Confirm whether the currently selected mode is "Agent Mode"
Change: If it is not currently in Agent Mode, please switch it to Agent Mode.
On the AI assistant's settings page, find the "🔧 Tools" page tab.
On this tool configuration page, click the "➕ Select Tools" button in the upper right corner. This will open a list of pre-built tools, where you can perform the following actions.
Actions:
Browse the list and find the tools you want this AI assistant to be able to use.
Check the checkbox next to the tools you want to enable.
You can select any number of tools based on the AI assistant's tasks and needs.
You can select MaiAgent built-in tools or tools you have defined yourself
Tip: Make sure to only configure tools that the AI assistant actually needs and is authorized to use. Configuring too many irrelevant tools may affect the AI's judgment accuracy and response efficiency.
After completing your selections, you can review the tools configured for the AI assistant once more to ensure the correct tools have been configured for this AI assistant.
After completing your tool selections, make sure to click the "Save" button to save the changes you have made to the AI assistant settings.
MaiAgent has four built-in AI image generation tools that you can apply to your AI assistants based on your needs, with no additional setup required:

Now, your selected AI assistant has the ability to use these enabled tools. When interacting with this assistant, if a relevant scenario is triggered, the AI will attempt to call these tools to complete tasks or retrieve information.
