Function Calling And Tool Use Orchestration Across Providers

via “multi-provider function calling with schema-based tool registration”

AI framework for Spring/Java — portable LLM API, RAG pipeline, vector stores, function calling.

Unique: Uses Spring's reflection and annotation processing to automatically generate JSON schemas from Java method signatures, with provider-specific adapters that translate between OpenAI's function_calling, Anthropic's tool_use, and Vertex AI's function_calling formats, enabling write-once tool definitions

vs others: More type-safe and less boilerplate than LangChain's tool_choice (which requires manual schema definition) and better integrated with Spring dependency injection; schema generation is automatic rather than manual JSON specification
