Prebuilt Tools for Search, Code, Generation, Data & Web

AI Agent Tools

The prebuilt capabilities you assign to agents — semantic search and RAG, code intelligence, document and media generation, data analytics, and web and communication — governed, on-premise, and orchestrated as networks.

How it fits together

Industry → Use Case → Agent → Tool → Network

Every industry has use cases; each use case maps to agents; and you assign tools to those agents. Bring multiple use cases and industries together and VDF AI composes the agents into a governed, on-premise network.

Tools are grouped by what they do. Each category has its own hub, and every tool has a dedicated page with its inputs, use cases, and the agents that can be assigned it.

Agent Core & Quality Tools These tools give an agent the ability to remember across runs, plan before acting, hand off work, checkpoint long tasks, ask a human when it matters, and verify its own answers. Assign them to any agent to raise reliability, or wire them across a network for governed, auditable autonomy. 16 Code Execution & Workspace Tools These tools turn an agent from a suggester into a doer. Assign sandboxed execution, file operations, test and build runners, and the full Git action set so an engineering agent can implement, verify, and ship changes — under role-based policy and full audit logging. 18 Semantic Search & RAG Tools These retrieval tools turn your private knowledge into answers an agent can cite. Assign one to an agent for focused recall, or several to a network that searches every system at once — without any of it leaving your perimeter. 25 Development & Code Intelligence Tools The deepest category in the catalog: tools that read repositories, review pull requests, scan for risk, and generate documentation. Assign them to an engineering agent, or wire several into a network that reviews, scans, and documents every change. 24 Integration & Action Tools Search tells an agent what happened; these tools let it do something about it. Assign write actions across Slack, Teams, Calendar, Gmail, Jira, Confluence, GitHub, Zoom, Notion, and Salesforce — with role-based policy and human approval where it matters — so a network can close the loop end to end. 26 Browser & Web Action Tools These tools give an agent hands on the web. Assign browser control and extraction for sites with no API, and structured API/OpenAPI/webhook invocation for the ones that do — so a research or operations agent can gather and act across any external system you allow. 12 Data & Analytics Tools These tools give agents structured signal from unstructured input — spreadsheets, free text, and scanned documents. Assign one to an analytics or strategy agent, or chain them into a network that ingests, extracts, and scores in one pass. 14 Document & Media Generation Tools These tools are how an agent hands you a finished artefact instead of a wall of text. Assign one to a content or design agent, or combine them in a network that drafts, formats, and ships a complete deliverable. 5 Multimodal Tools These tools let an agent read, hear, watch, and speak. Assign translation, speech and video transcription, voice synthesis, and image/video analysis so a single agent — or a network — can work across documents, calls, and media without any of it leaving your environment. 8 Security, Governance & Ops Tools These tools make autonomy accountable. Assign PII redaction, secret scanning, permission checks, and cost and audit controls so every agent action is safe, authorized, and traceable — the difference between a demo and something you can put in front of regulators. 9 Workflow & Automation Tools These tools let agents run on a schedule and coordinate multi-step work. Assign scheduling, triggering, retry/cancel, notification, and reporting so a network can execute recurring, long-running automation reliably — with full visibility and governance. 8 Web & Communication Tools These tools let agents pull in fresh external context and act on the results. Assign one to a research or sales agent, or wire them into a network that researches, drafts, and sends — end to end. 3

How they run

Governed tools, assigned to agents

Every tool runs on the VDF platform with role-based access, audit logging, and on-premise deployment. Assign tools to individual assistants with VDF AI Agents, or wire several agents and their tools into repeatable multi-agent workflows with VDF AI Networks.

FAQ

Questions about VDF AI tools

What are VDF AI tools?

VDF AI tools are prebuilt, governed capabilities you assign to AI agents — semantic search and RAG, code intelligence, document and media generation, data analytics, and web and communication actions. Each tool runs on infrastructure you control with role-based access and audit logging, and any agent can be given the exact tools it needs.

How do tools relate to agents and networks?

The model is Industry → Use Case → Agent → Tool. An industry has use cases; each use case maps to one or more agents; and you assign tools to those agents. When multiple use cases or industries come together, VDF AI composes the agents into a network — a governed, multi-agent workflow that orchestrates many tools at once.

Can I assign multiple tools to one agent?

Yes. An agent can be assigned any combination of tools. A knowledge agent might get federated vector search, the file summarizer, and the document generator; an engineering agent might get code review, security scan, and the repository map. Tool access is governed per role and fully logged.

Do these tools run on-premise?

Yes. Every tool can run on-premise or in your sovereign cloud, so your documents, code, tickets, and data never leave your perimeter. That is what makes them usable for regulated and IP-sensitive work that hosted assistants cannot touch.

How do I get a tool into production?

Pick the tool for your use case, assign it to an agent under role-based policy, and deploy on your own infrastructure — alone or as part of a VDF AI Network. Book a demo to see it applied to your environment.
