intermediateSpring AI — Tool Calling, Agents & Production

What is @ToolParam and how does Spring AI generate tool schemas?

@ToolParam(description="...") annotates a tool method's parameters; Spring AI uses this plus Jackson's schema generation to produce the JSON Schema sent to the LLM alongside the tool definition. Clear, descriptive parameter descriptions directly improve how accurately the LLM calls the tool.
