OpenAI - AI agent tools

The @tiptap-pro/ai-toolkit-openai package provides tool definitions you can add to your AI agent built with OpenAI's JavaScript SDK.

The tool calls generated by the model can then be executed in the client-side using the executeTool method.

Example usage

Install the package.

npm install @tiptap-pro/ai-toolkit-openai

Supply the tool definitions to your OpenAI model.

import OpenAI from 'openai'
import { toolDefinitions } from '@tiptap-pro/ai-toolkit-openai'

const openai = new OpenAI()

const response = await openai.responses.create({
  model: 'gpt-5',
  input: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Help me edit this document' }],
  tools: toolDefinitions(),
})

Combine the tool definitions with your custom tools.

import OpenAI from 'openai'
import { toolDefinitions } from '@tiptap-pro/ai-toolkit-openai'

const openai = new OpenAI()

const customTools = [
  {
    type: 'function',
    name: 'get_weather',
    description: 'Get the weather in a location',
    parameters: {
      type: 'object',
      properties: {
        location: {
          type: 'string',
          description: 'The city and state, e.g. San Francisco, CA',
        },
      },
      required: ['location'],
    },
  },
]

const response = await openai.responses.create({
  model: 'gpt-5',
  input: [{ role: 'user', content: 'What is the weather like and help me edit this document' }],
  tools: [...toolDefinitions(), ...customTools],
})
