Tools based on OpenAPI Spec
Last updated Apr 21, 2026
Oftentimes APIs are defined and documented via OpenAPI specification ↗︎. The Cloudflare ai-utils package's createToolsFromOpenAPISpec function creates tools from the OpenAPI spec, which the LLM can then leverage to fulfill the prompt.
In this example the LLM will describe the a Github user, based Github's API and its OpenAPI spec.
Embedded function calling example from OpenAPI Spects
import { createToolsFromOpenAPISpec, runWithTools } from '@cloudflare/ai-utils';
type Env = {
AI: Ai;
};
const APP_NAME = 'cf-fn-calling-example-app';
export default {
async fetch(request, env, ctx) {
const toolsFromOpenAPISpec = [
// You can pass the OpenAPI spec link or contents directly
...(await createToolsFromOpenAPISpec(

headers: {
'User-Agent': APP_NAME,
},
},
},
],
}
)),
];
const response = await runWithTools(

{
messages: [
{
role: 'user',
content: 'Who is cloudflare on Github and how many repos does the organization have?',
},
],
tools: toolsFromOpenAPISpec,
}
);
return new Response(JSON.stringify(response));
},
} satisfies ExportedHandler<Env>;
