via “tool registration and function calling with schema inference”
Type-safe agent framework by Pydantic — structured outputs, dependency injection, model-agnostic.
Unique: Automatically generates function schemas from Python type hints and docstrings at decoration time, eliminating manual schema writing. Supports both sync and async tools with unified invocation, and includes a deferred execution mode where tools return approval tokens instead of executing immediately, enabling human-in-the-loop workflows without special framework support.
vs others: More ergonomic than Anthropic SDK (which requires manual tool_use_block handling) and LangChain (which requires Tool subclasses), because the @agent.tool decorator handles schema generation, validation, and invocation automatically using Python's type system as the source of truth.
