• Tool Belt https://www.drupal.org/project/tool_belt
  • Quote from?
    • "Tool Belt provides ready-made tools that AI agents can use to perform common Drupal operations. Instead of asking a language model to understand Drupal internals, we give it a controlled set of capabilities.
    • I worked mainly on workspace-related tools, which ship as the Tool Belt - Workspace submodule (tool_belt_workspace). These allow an AI workflow to:
      • Create and reuse workspaces
        Switch between them
        Generate preview links
        Inspect changes
        Safely move content toward publishing"
• Tool API
  • Quote from?
    • "To get Workspaces talking to AI agents, we added workspace tools to the Tool Belt module which is built on top of Drupal's Tool API. The Tool API does the underlying work, so it's worth understanding first.
    • The Tool API provides the system that allows Drupal to expose structured, callable operations to AI agents. It defines how tools are described, how inputs are validated, and how results are returned.
    • In short, it turns Drupal functionality into well-defined actions that an AI can safely invoke.
    • Tool Belt builds on that."
