| 2026 | Automated Creation and Enrichment Framework for Improved Invocation of Enterprise APIs as ToolsabstractRecent advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) has lead to the development of agents capable of complex reasoning and interaction with external tools. In enterprise contexts, the effective use of such tools that are often enabled by application programming interfaces (APIs) is hindered by poor documentation, complex input or output schema, and large number of operations. These challenges make tool selection difficult and reduce the accuracy of payload formation upto 25%. We propose ACE, an automated tool creation and enrichment framework that transforms enterprise APIs into LLM-compatible tools. ACE (i) generates enriched tool specifications with parameter descriptions and examples to improve selection and invocation accuracy, and (ii) incorporates a dynamic shortlisting mechanism that filters relevant tools at runtime, reducing prompt complexity while maintaining scalability. We validate our framework on both proprietary and open-source APIs and demonstrate its integration with agentic frameworks. To the best of our knowledge, ACE is the first end-to-end framework that automates the creation, enrichment, and dynamic selection of enterprise API tools for LLM agents.

| 2026 | DFAgent: From Natural Language Data Interactions to Reusable Agent-Ready ToolsabstractWe present DataFoundry Agent (DFAgent), a system that forges reusable, agent-ready tools from interactive data exploration, quality, and remediation tasks. Users engage with data through natural-language prompts for operations that include inspection, transformation, and visualization. These interactions automatically generate executable code snippets that are logged. From these snippets, DFAgent acts as a foundry, synthesizing a governed catalog of enriched tools exposed via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). In this way, user-derived logic for all data operations is transformed into standardized, composable tools without reimplementation. We demonstrate how diverse interactions accumulate into a reusable toolset, highlighting a paradigm that unifies natural language interaction, executable code generation, and tool foundry processes for agentic data systems.
