Built-in tools
OtoDock ships with a set of tools out of the box. Some are core — on by default for every agent, powering the platform's own features (a manager can still turn one off for a specific agent) — and some are optional, ready to enable per agent. This is in addition to the service integrations and the community catalog.
Core tools — on by default
These power the features described elsewhere in these docs and are added to every agent automatically. An admin can't remove them platform-wide, but a manager can turn any of them off for a specific agent:
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| Memory | Long-term notes an agent keeps across conversations. See Memory. |
| Tasks | Schedule work — recurring, one-off, and trigger-fired. See Tasks. |
| Triggers | React to external events. See Triggers. |
| Notifications | Alert you in the dashboard and on your devices. See Notifications. |
| Meetings | Bring several agents together to collaborate. See Meetings. |
| Display | Show images, audio, video, links, and downloadable files inline in chat. |
| Files & documents | Read and write Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and PDF files, convert between formats, edit and analyze images, and preview documents live in chat. |
| Agent self-configuration | Lets an agent inspect and adjust its own settings (manager sessions only). |
| Catalog browser | Lets an agent browse the community catalog. |
Optional tools — ready to enable
These ship with the platform and can be turned on per agent:
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| Image generation | Create images from a text prompt. |
| Image search | Find images on the web, including reverse image search. |
| SSH hosts | Reach the servers an admin has configured, straight from the agent's shell. |
Connecting services and adding more
Beyond these, agents connect to services like GitHub and Notion (Integrations), and you can install additional tools from the community catalog or build your own.
