Look Ma, we made it again! 🎉 I have a new peer reviewed paper on @arxiv: Tool Recommendation for Multi-Step Agents: Finding Every Tool a Task Needs Written with the @TryArcade crew: @SamPartee, River Stevens, and Valerie Fanelle. We started out trying to figure out “how do we give agents the whole ~8k tool catalog without the context window or the bill exploding.” Ended up with a real deployed system with some pretty nice numbers: • First recommendation covered every required tool in 93% of Codex sessions • 57% better top-10 coverage than BM25 on ToolRet • Cut input tokens 17–40% and the bill by up to 40% vs a fixed list of 100 tools (no drop in task completion) Link to full paper in the comments

Our co-founder and CTO @SamPartee gave a talk at @mcpsummit on what actually makes a good tool for agents. He's built north of 10,000 tools. The 10x lever is not what most people think. Watch 👇 youtube.com/watch?v=q1CG02bY…

The hands need a runtime that works across any cloud, any model, any IDP, any policy engine. Just like humans — our hands go wherever we go. You shouldn't have to leave yours at the door when you walk into a new environment.
Anthropic just published how they built Managed Agents. They solved the orchestration layer elegantly. The hands are still an exercise for the reader. @TheMostlyGreat wrote about what that means: arcade.dev/blog/anthropic-ma…

Tool quality has a price tag. We benchmarked our Attio MCP toolkit against Composio's across 8 identical CRM queries. Same workspace, same model. Both got the right answers. Arcade: 7,426 tokens Composio: 747,083 tokens ~100x difference.

Just watched @RepJeffries on face the nation. If this is what leadership looks like, the Democratic Party is in peril. Sir, you just told bold faced lies. As a small business leader who just renewed our insurance plans, I know that pricing is already set.

Tax credits are not going to fix the cost of healthcare. Getting the payers to stop being greedy, making record profits and adding extra cost into the system with denials, appeals and dictating care.

Hot take: Most 'AI tools' are just API wrappers with a prayer that the LLM will figure it out. Spoiler: It won't. Learn the difference between API wrappers and production-ready AI tools – full video linked below ⬇️

MCP and authZ has come up a ton lately. Esp with the recent adoption of the HTTP RFC. MCP is headed the right direction. We want to help. We think there's a path to more secure tools and because of that, better capabilities for agents. Posted on GH discussion 👇

agents need tools! langgraph + arcade = 😻
🚨 @TryArcade featured in @TechCrunch shorturl.at/J0ORe Hard to believe, >1 year ago most models couldn't return JSON reliably. It seemed crazy to start a company around tool calling then. Now, with the latest craze of MCP, Operator, etc all centered around LLM tools, our conviction couldn't be stronger that we landed in the right space at the right time. Our investors clearly share that conviction. So much more to come out this week. :)
