Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| searchA | Search Brown's course catalog (Courses@Brown / CAB). Returns a compact list of matching courses with codes, titles, instructors, meeting times, and seat availability. Args: keyword: Free-text search, e.g. "linear algebra", "MATH 1530", "machine learning". department: Department code, e.g. "MATH", "CSCI", "BIOL", "ENGN". instructor: Instructor last name, e.g. "smith". semester: "fall", "spring", "winter", "summer", or "any". Empty = current term. year: 4-digit year, e.g. "2026". Empty = current year. |
| course_detailA | Get full details for a specific course: description, prerequisites, instructor info, meeting times, seats, Critical Review link, and more. Args: code: Course code, e.g. "MATH 0520", "CSCI 0200", "BIOL 0500". semester: "fall", "spring", "winter", "summer", or "any". Empty = current term. year: 4-digit year, e.g. "2026". Empty = current year. |
| batch_course_detailsA | Get details for multiple courses at once (parallel fetch). Much faster than calling course_detail repeatedly. Args: codes: List of course codes, e.g. ["MATH 1530", "CSCI 0200", "ECON 1110"]. semester: "fall", "spring", "winter", "summer", or "any". Empty = current term. year: 4-digit year, e.g. "2026".
