title: Tool description: A collapsible component for displaying tool invocation details in AI chatbot interfaces. path: elements/components/tool

The Tool component displays a collapsible interface for showing/hiding tool details. It is designed to take the ToolUIPart type from the AI SDK and display it in a collapsible interface.

Installation

Usage

import { Tool, ToolContent, ToolHeader, ToolOutput, ToolInput } from "@/components/ai-elements/tool";

<Tool>
    <ToolHeader type="tool-call" state={"output-available" as const} />
    <ToolContent>
        <ToolInput input="Input to tool call" />
        <ToolOutput errorText="Error" output="Output from tool call" />
    </ToolContent>
</Tool>

Usage in AI SDK

Build a simple stateful weather app that renders the last message in a tool using useChat.

Add the following component to your frontend:

"use client";

import { useChat } from "@ai-sdk/react";
import { DefaultChatTransport, type ToolUIPart } from "ai";
import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button";
import { Response } from "@/components/ai-elements/response";
import { Tool, ToolContent, ToolHeader, ToolInput, ToolOutput } from "@/components/ai-elements/tool";

type WeatherToolInput = {
    location: string;
    units: "celsius" | "fahrenheit";
};

type WeatherToolOutput = {
    location: string;
    temperature: string;
    conditions: string;
    humidity: string;
    windSpeed: string;
    lastUpdated: string;
};

type WeatherToolUIPart = ToolUIPart<{
    fetch_weather_data: {
        input: WeatherToolInput;
        output: WeatherToolOutput;
    };
}>;

const Example = () => {
    const { messages, sendMessage, status } = useChat({
        transport: new DefaultChatTransport({
            api: "/api/weather",
        }),
    });

    const handleWeatherClick = () => {
        sendMessage({ text: "Get weather data for San Francisco in fahrenheit" });
    };

    const latestMessage = messages[messages.length - 1];
    const weatherTool = latestMessage?.parts?.find((part) => part.type === "tool-fetch_weather_data") as WeatherToolUIPart | undefined;

    return (
        <div className="max-w-4xl mx-auto p-6 relative size-full rounded-lg border h-[600px]">
            <div className="flex flex-col h-full">
                <div className="space-y-4">
                    <Button onClick={handleWeatherClick} disabled={status !== "ready"}>
                        Get Weather for San Francisco
                    </Button>

                    {weatherTool && (
                        <Tool defaultOpen={true}>
                            <ToolHeader type="tool-fetch_weather_data" state={weatherTool.state} />
                            <ToolContent>
                                <ToolInput input={weatherTool.input} />
                                <ToolOutput
                                    output={<Response>{formatWeatherResult(weatherTool.output)}</Response>}
                                    errorText={weatherTool.errorText}
                                />
                            </ToolContent>
                        </Tool>
                    )}
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    );
};

function formatWeatherResult(result: WeatherToolOutput): string {
    return `**Weather for ${result.location}**

**Temperature:** ${result.temperature}  
**Conditions:** ${result.conditions}  
**Humidity:** ${result.humidity}  
**Wind Speed:** ${result.windSpeed}  

*Last updated: ${result.lastUpdated}*`;
}

export default Example;

Add the following route to your backend:

import { streamText, UIMessage, convertToModelMessages } from "ai";
import { z } from "zod";

// Allow streaming responses up to 30 seconds
export const maxDuration = 30;

export async function POST(req: Request) {
    const { messages }: { messages: UIMessage[] } = await req.json();

    const result = streamText({
        model: "openai/gpt-4o",
        messages: convertToModelMessages(messages),
        tools: {
            fetch_weather_data: {
                description: "Fetch weather information for a specific location",
                parameters: z.object({
                    location: z.string().describe("The city or location to get weather for"),
                    units: z.enum(["celsius", "fahrenheit"]).default("celsius").describe("Temperature units"),
                }),
                inputSchema: z.object({
                    location: z.string(),
                    units: z.enum(["celsius", "fahrenheit"]).default("celsius"),
                }),
                execute: async ({ location, units }) => {
                    await new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, 1500));

                    const temp = units === "celsius" ? Math.floor(Math.random() * 35) + 5 : Math.floor(Math.random() * 63) + 41;

                    return {
                        location,
                        temperature: `${temp}°${units === "celsius" ? "C" : "F"}`,
                        conditions: "Sunny",
                        humidity: `12%`,
                        windSpeed: `35 ${units === "celsius" ? "km/h" : "mph"}`,
                        lastUpdated: new Date().toLocaleString(),
                    };
                },
            },
        },
    });

    return result.toUIMessageStreamResponse();
}

Features

Collapsible interface for showing/hiding tool details
Visual status indicators with icons and badges
Support for multiple tool execution states (pending, running, completed, error)
Formatted parameter display with JSON syntax highlighting
Result and error handling with appropriate styling
Composable structure for flexible layouts
Accessible keyboard navigation and screen reader support
Consistent styling that matches your design system

Examples

Input Streaming (Pending)

Shows a tool in its initial state while parameters are being processed.

Input Available (Running)

Shows a tool that's actively executing with its parameters.

Output Available (Completed)

Shows a completed tool with successful results. Opens by default to show the results. In this instance, the output is a JSON object, so we can use the CodeBlock component to display it.

Output Error
