FileTools enable an Agent to read and write files on the local file system.

Example

The following agent will generate an answer and save it in a file.

cookbook/tools/file_tools.py

from phi.agent import Agent
from phi.tools.file import FileTools

agent = Agent(tools=[FileTools()], show_tool_calls=True)
agent.print_response("What is the most advanced LLM currently? Save the answer to a file.", markdown=True)
