OpenAI: Building Agents with New API Tools
**OpenAI has released new tools and an API to simplify the development of autonomous agents.**
The update introduces built-in tools like web search, file search with metadata filtering, and computer use for controlling interfaces.
**A new "responses API" is launched to handle complex, multi-step agent interactions involving various tools and modalities.**
This API is accompanied by an open-source "agents SDK," an evolution of their previous "swarm" SDK, designed for orchestrating multiple specialized agents with features like handoffs and built-in monitoring.
**While the new responses API offers enhanced capabilities, the chat completions API will remain supported.
** Eventually, the assistance API will be sunsetted in 2026 as its functionality is integrated into the responses API, aiming to make agent building more accessible and robust for developers.
