Tool Ontology

Tool Ontology organizes individual tools into a structured, composable network, enabling agents to reason, plan, and execute complex tasks as an extensible, maintainable capability system.

How it works

When querying for a task, the system traverses this graph to identify the necessary collections and tools to construct a capable agent.

Architecture

Three-Layer Design

How tools are organized from abstract taxonomy to deployable collections.

1

Tool Taxonomy

The Abstraction Layer

The top layer defines the broad categorization and detailed tags of tools. It organizes capabilities into categories such as:

  • Communication
  • Database
  • Storage
Classification & Vocabulary — 11 categories, 0+ tags
2

Tool Relation Graph

The Semantic Layer

The middle layer instantiates specific tools and defines how they interact. It maps relationships using edges like:

  • Similar To
  • Used With
  • Replaces
  • Belongs To
Reasoning & Composition — 0 tools, 4 relationship types
3

Tool Collection

The Execution Layer

Groups related tools into deployable units. These are the actual functional toolkits agents load at runtime:

Deployment & Execution — 5 collections, 29 tools
Edges

Relationship Types

How tools connect and depend on each other within the ontology.

Similar To
similar_to

Tools that share common functionality.

Used With
used_with

Tools commonly used together.

Replaces
replaces

Tools that serve as alternatives to each other.

Belongs To
belong_to

Tools in the same taxonomy category.
