Tool Selector

Purpose

Analyze a task and determine the optimal set of tools, MCP actions, APIs, and system capabilities needed to complete it. Prevents using the wrong tool for the job and ensures all required capabilities are available before execution starts.

When to Use

Starting a complex task that may need multiple tools
The user asks "what tool should I use for X?"
A skill or agent needs to determine its tooling requirements
Before invoking the workflow-orchestrator to plan execution

When Not to Use

The tool is obvious from the task description
Only one tool type is relevant (e.g., always "read" for documentation)
The task is already executing and tools are already selected

Inputs

Input	Type	Required	Description
`task_description`	string	Yes	What needs to be done
`available_tools`	array	Yes	Tools, MCP actions, and capabilities available
`constraints`	string	No	Any restrictions on tool usage

Expected Outputs

Output	Description
Required tools	Ordered list of tools needed
Tool configuration	Parameters, permissions, or setup needed per tool
Missing tools	Any required capabilities not available

Exact Workflow Steps

Analyze the task to determine what operations are needed (read, write, search, execute, etc.)
Map each operation to the appropriate available tool
Verify each selected tool has the required permissions
Identify any gaps where no available tool covers a needed operation
Return the tool list with ordering suggestions

Required Checks

Every required operation has a corresponding tool
Selected tools have necessary permissions
No tool is selected for operations it cannot perform

Failure Modes

Failure Condition	Response
No tool available for a needed operation	Report gap and suggest creating a new tool
Tool permissions insufficient	Report what permissions need to be added
Task is too vague to analyze	Ask clarifying questions
