Tools | OpenRouter SDK | OpenRouter

The tool() Helper

The tool() function creates type-safe tools with Zod schema validation:

1 import { OpenRouter, tool } from '@openrouter/sdk';
2 import { z } from 'zod';
3 
4 const weatherTool = tool({
5   name: 'get_weather',
6   description: 'Get the current weather for a location',
7   inputSchema: z.object({
8     location: z.string().describe('City name, e.g., "San Francisco, CA"'),
9   }),
10   outputSchema: z.object({
11     temperature: z.number(),
12     conditions: z.string(),
13   }),
14   execute: async (params) => {
15     // params is typed as { location: string }
16     const weather = await fetchWeather(params.location);
17     return {
18       temperature: weather.temp,
19       conditions: weather.description,
20     };
21   },
22 });

Tool Types

The SDK supports three types of tools, automatically detected from your configuration:

Regular Tools

Standard tools with an execute function:

1 const calculatorTool = tool({
2   name: 'calculate',
3   description: 'Perform a mathematical calculation',
4   inputSchema: z.object({
5     expression: z.string().describe('Math expression like "2 + 2"'),
6   }),
7   outputSchema: z.object({
8     result: z.number(),
9   }),
10   execute: async (params) => {
11     const result = eval(params.expression); // Use a safer eval in production
12     return { result };
13   },
14 });

Generator Tools

Tools that yield progress updates during execution. Add eventSchema to enable generator mode:

1 const searchTool = tool({
2   name: 'search_database',
3   description: 'Search documents with progress updates',
4   inputSchema: z.object({
5     query: z.string(),
6     limit: z.number().default(10),
7   }),
8   // eventSchema triggers generator mode
9   eventSchema: z.object({
10     progress: z.number().min(0).max(100),
11     message: z.string(),
12   }),
13   outputSchema: z.object({
14     results: z.array(z.string()),
15     totalFound: z.number(),
16   }),
17   // execute is now an async generator
18   execute: async function* (params) {
19     yield { progress: 0, message: 'Starting search...' };
20 
21     const results = [];
22     for (let i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
23       yield { progress: (i + 1) * 20, message: `Searching batch ${i + 1}...` };
24       results.push(...await searchBatch(params.query, i));
25     }
26 
27     // Final yield is the output
28     yield { progress: 100, message: 'Complete!' };
29 
30     // Return the final result (or yield it as last value)
31     return {
32       results: results.slice(0, params.limit),
33       totalFound: results.length,
34     };
35   },
36 });

Progress events are streamed to consumers via getToolStream() and getFullResponsesStream().

Manual Tools

Tools without automatic execution - you handle the tool calls yourself:

1 const manualTool = tool({
2   name: 'send_email',
3   description: 'Send an email (requires user confirmation)',
4   inputSchema: z.object({
5     to: z.string().email(),
6     subject: z.string(),
7     body: z.string(),
8   }),
9   execute: false, // Manual handling required
10 });

Use getToolCalls() to retrieve manual tool calls for processing.

Schema Definition

Input Schema

Define what parameters the tool accepts:

1 const inputSchema = z.object({
2   // Required parameters
3   query: z.string().describe('Search query'),
4 
5   // Optional with default
6   limit: z.number().default(10).describe('Max results'),
7 
8   // Optional without default
9   filter: z.string().optional().describe('Filter expression'),
10 
11   // Enum values
12   sortBy: z.enum(['relevance', 'date', 'popularity']).default('relevance'),
13 
14   // Nested objects
15   options: z.object({
16     caseSensitive: z.boolean().default(false),
17     wholeWord: z.boolean().default(false),
18   }).optional(),
19 
20   // Arrays
21   tags: z.array(z.string()).optional(),
22 });

Output Schema

Define the structure of results returned to the model:

1 const outputSchema = z.object({
2   results: z.array(z.object({
3     id: z.string(),
4     title: z.string(),
5     score: z.number(),
6   })),
7   metadata: z.object({
8     totalCount: z.number(),
9     searchTimeMs: z.number(),
10   }),
11 });

Event Schema (Generator Tools)

Define progress/status events for generator tools:

1 const eventSchema = z.object({
2   stage: z.enum(['initializing', 'processing', 'finalizing']),
3   progress: z.number(),
4   currentItem: z.string().optional(),
5 });

Type Inference

The SDK provides utilities to extract types from tools:

1 import type { InferToolInput, InferToolOutput, InferToolEvent } from '@openrouter/sdk';
2 
3 // Get the input type
4 type WeatherInput = InferToolInput<typeof weatherTool>;
5 // { location: string }
6 
7 // Get the output type
8 type WeatherOutput = InferToolOutput<typeof weatherTool>;
9 // { temperature: number; conditions: string }
10 
11 // Get event type (generator tools only)
12 type SearchEvent = InferToolEvent<typeof searchTool>;
13 // { progress: number; message: string }

Using Tools with callModel

Single Tool

1 const openrouter = new OpenRouter({ apiKey: process.env.OPENROUTER_API_KEY });
2 
3 const result = openrouter.callModel({
4   model: 'openai/gpt-5-nano',
5   input: 'What is the weather in Tokyo?',
6   tools: [weatherTool],
7 });
8 
9 // Tools are automatically executed
10 const text = await result.getText();
11 // "The weather in Tokyo is 22°C and sunny."

Multiple Tools

1 const result = openrouter.callModel({
2   model: 'openai/gpt-5-nano',
3   input: 'Search for TypeScript tutorials and calculate 2+2',
4   tools: [searchTool, calculatorTool],
5 });

Type-Safe Tool Calls with `as const`

Use as const for full type inference on tool calls:

1 const result = openrouter.callModel({
2   model: 'openai/gpt-5-nano',
3   input: 'What is the weather?',
4   tools: [weatherTool, searchTool] as const,
5   maxToolRounds: 0, // Get tool calls without executing
6 });
7 
8 // Tool calls are typed as union of tool inputs
9 for await (const toolCall of result.getToolCallsStream()) {
10   if (toolCall.name === 'get_weather') {
11     // toolCall.arguments is typed as { location: string }
12     console.log('Weather for:', toolCall.arguments.location);
13   }
14 }

TurnContext

Tool execute functions receive a TurnContext with conversation state:

1 const contextAwareTool = tool({
2   name: 'context_tool',
3   inputSchema: z.object({ data: z.string() }),
4   outputSchema: z.object({ result: z.string() }),
5   execute: async (params, context) => {
6     console.log('Turn number:', context?.numberOfTurns);
7     console.log('Message history:', context?.turnRequest?.input);
8     console.log('Model:', context?.turnRequest?.model);
9 
10     return { result: `Processed on turn ${context?.numberOfTurns}` };
11   },
12 });

TurnContext Properties

Property	Type	Description
`numberOfTurns`	`number`	Current turn number (1-indexed)
`turnRequest`	`OpenResponsesRequest \| undefined`	Current request object containing messages and model settings
`toolCall`	`OpenResponsesFunctionToolCall \| undefined`	The specific tool call being executed

Tool Execution

callModel automatically executes tools and handles multi-turn conversations. When the model calls a tool, the SDK executes it, sends the result back, and continues until the model provides a final response.

Automatic Execution Flow

When you provide tools with execute functions:

1 import { OpenRouter, tool } from '@openrouter/sdk';
2 import { z } from 'zod';
3 
4 const weatherTool = tool({
5   name: 'get_weather',
6   inputSchema: z.object({ location: z.string() }),
7   outputSchema: z.object({ temperature: z.number() }),
8   execute: async ({ location }) => {
9     return { temperature: await fetchTemperature(location) };
10   },
11 });
12 
13 const result = openrouter.callModel({
14   model: 'openai/gpt-5-nano',
15   input: 'What is the weather in Paris?',
16   tools: [weatherTool],
17 });
18 
19 // getText() waits for all tool execution to complete
20 const text = await result.getText();
21 // "The weather in Paris is 18°C."

Execution Sequence

Model receives prompt and generates tool call
SDK extracts tool call and validates arguments
Tool’s execute function runs
Result is formatted and sent back to model
Model generates final response (or more tool calls)
Process repeats until model is done

Controlling Execution Rounds

maxToolRounds (Number)

Limit the maximum number of tool execution rounds:

1 const result = openrouter.callModel({
2   model: 'openai/gpt-5-nano',
3   input: 'Research this topic thoroughly',
4   tools: [searchTool, analyzeTool],
5   maxToolRounds: 3, // Stop after 3 rounds of tool execution
6 });

Setting maxToolRounds: 0 disables automatic execution - you get raw tool calls.

maxToolRounds (Function)

Use a function for dynamic control:

1 const result = openrouter.callModel({
2   model: 'openai/gpt-5-nano',
3   input: 'Research and analyze',
4   tools: [searchTool],
5   maxToolRounds: (context) => {
6     // Continue if under 5 turns
7     return context.numberOfTurns < 5;
8   },
9 });

The function receives TurnContext and returns true to continue or false to stop.

Accessing Tool Calls

getToolCalls()

Get all tool calls from the initial response (before auto-execution):

1 const result = openrouter.callModel({
2   model: 'openai/gpt-5-nano',
3   input: 'What is the weather in Tokyo and Paris?',
4   tools: [weatherTool],
5   maxToolRounds: 0, // Don't auto-execute
6 });
7 
8 const toolCalls = await result.getToolCalls();
9 
10 for (const call of toolCalls) {
11   console.log(`Tool: ${call.name}`);
12   console.log(`ID: ${call.id}`);
13   console.log(`Arguments:`, call.arguments);
14 }

getToolCallsStream()

Stream tool calls as they complete:

1 const result = openrouter.callModel({
2   model: 'openai/gpt-5-nano',
3   input: 'Check weather in multiple cities',
4   tools: [weatherTool],
5   maxToolRounds: 0,
6 });
7 
8 for await (const toolCall of result.getToolCallsStream()) {
9   console.log(`Received tool call: ${toolCall.name}`);
10 
11   // Process each tool call as it arrives
12   const weatherResult = await processWeatherRequest(toolCall.arguments);
13   console.log('Result:', weatherResult);
14 }

Tool Stream Events

getToolStream()

Stream both argument deltas and preliminary results:

1 const searchTool = tool({
2   name: 'search',
3   inputSchema: z.object({ query: z.string() }),
4   eventSchema: z.object({ progress: z.number(), status: z.string() }),
5   outputSchema: z.object({ results: z.array(z.string()) }),
6   execute: async function* ({ query }) {
7     yield { progress: 25, status: 'Searching...' };
8     yield { progress: 50, status: 'Processing...' };
9     yield { progress: 75, status: 'Ranking...' };
10     yield { progress: 100, status: 'Complete' };
11     return { results: ['result1', 'result2'] };
12   },
13 });
14 
15 const result = openrouter.callModel({
16   model: 'openai/gpt-5-nano',
17   input: 'Search for TypeScript tutorials',
18   tools: [searchTool],
19 });
20 
21 for await (const event of result.getToolStream()) {
22   switch (event.type) {
23     case 'delta':
24       // Raw argument delta from the model
25       process.stdout.write(event.content);
26       break;
27     case 'preliminary_result':
28       // Progress from generator tool
29       console.log(`Progress: ${event.result.progress}% - ${event.result.status}`);
30       break;
31   }
32 }

Event Types

Type	Description
`delta`	Raw tool call argument chunks from model
`preliminary_result`	Progress events from generator tools (intermediate yields)

Tool Result Events

When using getFullResponsesStream(), you can also receive tool.result events that fire when a tool execution completes:

1 for await (const event of result.getFullResponsesStream()) {
2   switch (event.type) {
3     case 'tool.preliminary_result':
4       // Intermediate progress from generator tools
5       console.log(`Progress (${event.toolCallId}):`, event.result);
6       break;
7     case 'tool.result':
8       // Final result when tool execution completes
9       console.log(`Tool ${event.toolCallId} completed`);
10       console.log('Result:', event.result);
11       // Access any preliminary results that were emitted during execution
12       if (event.preliminaryResults) {
13         console.log('All progress events:', event.preliminaryResults);
14       }
15       break;
16   }
17 }

ToolResultEvent Type

1 type ToolResultEvent<TResult = unknown, TPreliminaryResults = unknown> = {
2   type: 'tool.result';
3   toolCallId: string;
4   result: TResult;
5   timestamp: number;
6   preliminaryResults?: TPreliminaryResults[];
7 };

The tool.result event provides the final output from tool execution along with all intermediate preliminaryResults that were yielded during execution (for generator tools). This is useful when you need both real-time progress updates and a summary of all progress at completion.

Parallel Tool Execution

When the model calls multiple tools, they execute in parallel:

1 const result = openrouter.callModel({
2   model: 'openai/gpt-5-nano',
3   input: 'Get weather in Paris, Tokyo, and New York simultaneously',
4   tools: [weatherTool],
5 });
6 
7 // All three weather calls execute in parallel
8 const text = await result.getText();

Manual Tool Handling

For tools without execute functions:

1 const confirmTool = tool({
2   name: 'send_email',
3   description: 'Send an email (requires confirmation)',
4   inputSchema: z.object({
5     to: z.string().email(),
6     subject: z.string(),
7     body: z.string(),
8   }),
9   execute: false, // Manual handling
10 });
11 
12 const result = openrouter.callModel({
13   model: 'openai/gpt-5-nano',
14   input: 'Send an email to [email protected]',
15   tools: [confirmTool],
16   maxToolRounds: 0,
17 });
18 
19 const toolCalls = await result.getToolCalls();
20 
21 for (const call of toolCalls) {
22   if (call.name === 'send_email') {
23     // Show confirmation UI
24     const confirmed = await showConfirmDialog(call.arguments);
25 
26     if (confirmed) {
27       await sendEmail(call.arguments);
28     }
29   }
30 }

Execution Results

Access execution metadata through getResponse():

1 const result = openrouter.callModel({
2   model: 'openai/gpt-5-nano',
3   input: 'What is 2+2 and the weather in Paris?',
4   tools: [calculatorTool, weatherTool],
5 });
6 
7 const response = await result.getResponse();
8 
9 // Response includes all execution rounds
10 console.log('Final output:', response.output);
11 console.log('Usage:', response.usage);

Error Handling

Tool Execution Errors

Errors in execute functions are caught and sent back to the model:

1 const riskyTool = tool({
2   name: 'risky_operation',
3   inputSchema: z.object({ input: z.string() }),
4   outputSchema: z.object({ result: z.string() }),
5   execute: async (params) => {
6     if (params.input === 'fail') {
7       throw new Error('Operation failed: invalid input');
8     }
9     return { result: 'success' };
10   },
11 });
12 
13 const result = openrouter.callModel({
14   model: 'openai/gpt-5-nano',
15   input: 'Try the risky operation with "fail"',
16   tools: [riskyTool],
17 });
18 
19 // Model receives error message and can respond appropriately
20 const text = await result.getText();
21 // "I tried the operation but it failed with: Operation failed: invalid input"

Validation Errors

Invalid tool arguments are caught before execution:

1 const strictTool = tool({
2   name: 'strict',
3   inputSchema: z.object({
4     email: z.string().email(),
5     age: z.number().min(0).max(150),
6   }),
7   execute: async (params) => {
8     // Only runs with valid input
9     return { valid: true };
10   },
11 });

Graceful Error Handling

Handle errors gracefully in execute functions:

1 const robustTool = tool({
2   name: 'fetch_data',
3   inputSchema: z.object({ url: z.string().url() }),
4   outputSchema: z.object({
5     data: z.unknown().optional(),
6     error: z.string().optional(),
7   }),
8   execute: async (params) => {
9     try {
10       const response = await fetch(params.url);
11       if (!response.ok) {
12         return { error: `HTTP ${response.status}: ${response.statusText}` };
13       }
14       return { data: await response.json() };
15     } catch (error) {
16       return { error: `Failed to fetch: ${error.message}` };
17     }
18   },
19 });

Best Practices

Descriptive Names and Descriptions

1 // Good: Clear name and description
2 const tool1 = tool({
3   name: 'search_knowledge_base',
4   description: 'Search the company knowledge base for documents, FAQs, and policies. Returns relevant articles with snippets.',
5   // ...
6 });
7 
8 // Avoid: Vague or generic
9 const tool2 = tool({
10   name: 'search',
11   description: 'Searches stuff',
12   // ...
13 });

Schema Descriptions

Add .describe() to help the model understand parameters:

1 const inputSchema = z.object({
2   query: z.string().describe('Natural language search query'),
3   maxResults: z.number()
4     .min(1)
5     .max(100)
6     .default(10)
7     .describe('Maximum number of results to return (1-100)'),
8   dateRange: z.enum(['day', 'week', 'month', 'year', 'all'])
9     .default('all')
10     .describe('Filter results by time period'),
11 });

Idempotent Tools

Design tools to be safely re-executable:

1 const createUserTool = tool({
2   name: 'create_user',
3   inputSchema: z.object({
4     email: z.string().email(),
5     name: z.string(),
6   }),
7   execute: async (params) => {
8     // Check if user exists first
9     const existing = await findUserByEmail(params.email);
10     if (existing) {
11       return { userId: existing.id, created: false };
12     }
13 
14     const user = await createUser(params);
15     return { userId: user.id, created: true };
16   },
17 });

Timeout Handling

Wrap long-running operations:

1 const longRunningTool = tool({
2   name: 'process_data',
3   inputSchema: z.object({ dataId: z.string() }),
4   execute: async (params) => {
5     const timeoutMs = 30000;
6 
7     const result = await Promise.race([
8       processData(params.dataId),
9       new Promise((_, reject) =>
10         setTimeout(() => reject(new Error('Operation timed out')), timeoutMs)
11       ),
12     ]);
13 
14     return result;
15   },
16 });
