Controls how the model selects which tool to call. This only takes effect when `tools` are defined.

**Examples**:

**Let the model decide (default):**

```json

}
```

**Force a specific tool call:**

```json
"toolChoice": {
  "type": "tool",
  "name": "get_weather"
}
```

**Require any tool call:**

```json
"toolChoice": {
  "type": "any"
}
```

#### [type](https://runware.ai/docs/models/openai-gpt-5-4-pro#request-toolchoice-type)

- **Path**: `toolChoice.type`
- **Type**: `string`
- **Required**: true

Strategy the model uses to decide when and which tools to call.

**Allowed values**:

- `auto` The model decides whether to call a tool based on the conversation context. This is the recommended default.
- `any` The model must call at least one tool but chooses which one. Useful when you always need structured output.
- `tool` The model must call the specific tool identified by name. Use this to force a particular function call.
- `none` The model will not call any tool, even if tools are defined. Useful for forcing a text-only response.

#### [name](https://runware.ai/docs/models/openai-gpt-5-4-pro#request-toolchoice-name)

- **Path**: `toolChoice.name`
- **Type**: `string`

Name of the specific tool the model must call. Required when type is `tool`.

### [tools](https://runware.ai/docs/models/openai-gpt-5-4-pro#request-tools)

- **Path**: `tools.type`
- **Type**: `array of objects (4 properties)`

An array of tool definitions that the model may call during generation. The model can invoke one or more tools based on the conversation context, outputting structured calls with arguments instead of (or alongside) free-text.

For `function` tools, each definition requires:

- **`type`**: `"function"`
- **`name`**: Unique identifier (alphanumeric, hyphens, underscores; max 64 chars).
- **`description`**: What the function does. The model uses this to decide when to call it.
- **`schema`**: JSON Schema object describing the expected input arguments.

> [!NOTE]
> The `search` tool is executed server-side by the provider. You don't need to handle the tool result yourself.

> [!NOTE]
> The `codeInterpreter` tool is executed server-side by the provider. You don't need to handle the tool result yourself.

**Examples**:

**Function tool, weather lookup:**

```json
"tools": [
  {
    "type": "function",
    "name": "get_weather",
    "description": "Get current weather for a city",
    "schema": {
      "type": "object",
      "properties": {
        "city": { "type": "string", "description": "City name" }
      },
      "required": ["city"]
    }
  }
],
"toolChoice": { "type": "auto" }
```

**Built-in web search:**

```json
"tools": [
  { "type": "search" }
]
```

**Built-in code interpreter:**

```json
"tools": [
  { "type": "codeInterpreter" }
]
```

**Multiple function tools:**

```json
"tools": [
  {
    "type": "function",
    "name": "search_products",
    "description": "Search the product catalog by query and filters.",
    "schema": {
      "type": "object",
      "properties": {
        "query": { "type": "string" },
        "category": { "type": "string" }
      },
      "required": ["query"]
    }
  },
  {
    "type": "function",
    "name": "add_to_cart",
    "description": "Add a product to the user's shopping cart.",
    "schema": {
      "type": "object",
      "properties": {
        "productId": { "type": "string" },
        "quantity": { "type": "integer", "minimum": 1 }
      },
      "required": ["productId"]
    }
  }
]
```

#### [type](https://runware.ai/docs/models/openai-gpt-5-4-pro#request-tools-type)

- **Path**: `tools.type`
- **Type**: `string`
- **Required**: true

The kind of tool to make available to the model. User-defined functions require `name` and `schema`, while built-in tools (`search`, `codeInterpreter`) are executed server-side by the provider.

**Allowed values**:

- `function` User-defined function tool. The model outputs the tool name and arguments. You execute the function locally and send results back.
- `search` Built-in web search. The provider executes search server-side and enriches the response automatically.
- `codeInterpreter` Built-in code execution sandbox (Python). The provider runs code server-side and returns results automatically.

#### [name](https://runware.ai/docs/models/openai-gpt-5-4-pro#request-tools-name)

- **Path**: `tools.name`
- **Type**: `string`
- **Max**: `64`

Unique function name. Required for function tools.

#### [description](https://runware.ai/docs/models/openai-gpt-5-4-pro#request-tools-description)

- **Path**: `tools.description`
- **Type**: `string`

Explanation of what the function does, used by the model to decide when to call it.

#### [schema](https://runware.ai/docs/models/openai-gpt-5-4-pro#request-tools-schema)

- **Path**: `tools.schema`
- **Type**: `object`
