This is the official Anthropic documentation for programmatic tool calling, and it’s the exact feature I’m talking about in the video. If you’re building agents, this is worth reading because it shows how to keep intermediate tool chatter out of the context window while letting the model write code to invoke tools.

Pros

  • +Clear reference for implementing programmatic tool calling
  • +Helps reduce context pollution from tool I/O
  • +Aligns tool use with what coding models do best (write code)

Cons

  • -Token cost can vary if the model writes lots of orchestration/filtering code
  • -Requires a sandbox/code execution setup to get the full benefit
