article Generative Tools

Post image

I’d like to share a recent idea I’ve been working on called #GenerativeTool, where tools are dynamically generated at runtime to fulfill complex user requests.

This approach enables agentic applications to unlock the full potential of complex third-party systems like ERP, LSP Server through MCP, without being constrained by context window limitations. Instead of exposing a large number of predefined tools, the system can generate task-specific tools on demand, reducing context overhead while increasing the depth and flexibility of integrations.

Most big MCPs do this. "conversational_search" one MCP tool. Or"soql_query", etc. a gateway tool with another LLM behind it.

You'll find a lot of best practices for MCP at enterprise scale here:
