ToolRegistry: A Protocol-Agnostic Tool Management Library for Function-Calling LLMs 文章

arXiv:2507.10593v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Every LLM tool call is structurally an RPC -- a function name, JSON arguments, and a serialized result -- yet each protocol (native Python, MCP, OpenAPI, LangChain) is integrated from scratch. We present ToolRegistry, a system that makes this RPC nature explicit: a single Tool object acts as a universal stub regardless of transport, while the registry serves as the RPC client runtime for dispatch, schema generation, and execution. The system ships as three packages -- a core registry, a server exposing tools over MCP and OpenAPI, and a hub of production-ready implementations -- and invokes tools through pluggable thread or process backends.
