* feat: enhance BaseTool and CrewStructuredTool with usage tracking This commit introduces a mechanism to track the usage count of tools within the CrewAI framework. The `BaseTool` class now includes a `_increment_usage_count` method that updates the current usage count, which is also reflected in the associated `CrewStructuredTool`. Additionally, a new test has been added to ensure that the maximum usage count is respected when invoking tools, enhancing the overall reliability and functionality of the tool system. * feat: add max usage count feature to tools documentation This commit introduces a new section in the tools overview documentation that explains the maximum usage count feature for tools within the CrewAI framework. Users can now set a limit on how many times a tool can be used, enhancing control over tool usage. An example of implementing the `FileReadTool` with a maximum usage count is also provided, improving the clarity and usability of the documentation. * undo field string

## **Getting Started**
|
|
|
|
To use any tool in your CrewAI project:
|
|
|
|
1. **Import** the tool in your crew configuration
|
|
2. **Add** it to your agent's tools list
|
|
3. **Configure** any required API keys or settings
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from crewai_tools import FileReadTool, SerperDevTool
|
|
|
|
# Add tools to your agent
|
|
agent = Agent(
|
|
role="Research Analyst",
|
|
tools=[FileReadTool(), SerperDevTool()],
|
|
# ... other configuration
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## **Max Usage Count**
|
|
|
|
You can set a maximum usage count for a tool to prevent it from being used more than a certain number of times.
|
|
By default, the max usage count is unlimited.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from crewai_tools import FileReadTool
|
|
|
|
tool = FileReadTool(max_usage_count=5, ...)
|
|
```
