AI Ask with Multiple Tool Function Callbacks

See more AI Examples

This example demonstrates asking a two-part question that should cause the AI to respond with two tool call requests. Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

#  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  The Javascript file loaded here is shown at the bottom of this page.
#  -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#  Load JavaScript containing the tool functions.
$sbJs = chilkat::CkStringBuilder->new();
$success = $sbJs->LoadFile("qa_data/js_tools/toolset_6.js","utf-8");
if ($success == 0) {
    print $sbJs->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

$ai = chilkat::CkAi->new();

#  Register the tools that will be made available to the AI.
$evalOnly = 0;
$allowAllKeyword = 1;
$ai->RegisterJsTools($sbJs,$evalOnly,$allowAllKeyword);

#  The provider can be "openai", "google", "claude", "grok", "mistral", "custom", etc.
$ai->put_Provider("openai");
#  Use your provider's API key.
$ai->put_ApiKey("MY_API_KEY");
#  Choose a model.
$ai->put_Model("gpt-5.6-luna");

#  Tool function calling must always occur within a conversation.
$conversation_name = "example_convo";
$sysMessage = "You are a helpful assistant";
$devMessage = "Respond with markdown";
$ai->NewConvo($conversation_name,$sysMessage,$devMessage);

#  Provide inputs
$ai->InputAddText("What is my horoscope? I am an Aquarius.  Also, what's the weather in Chicago?");

#  Send inputs, tool functions, etc. and ask for a "text" response.
#  If the AI responds with tool calls, Chilkat automatically handles them by calling your JavaScript
#  tool functions as directed by the AI, and sending results back to the AI until the final
#  response is received.
$success = $ai->Ask("text");
if ($success == 0) {
    print $ai->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

#  Get the AI response.
$sbResponse = chilkat::CkStringBuilder->new();
$ai->GetOutputTextSb($sbResponse);
print $sbResponse->getAsString() . "\r\n";
