How to use it

You normally trigger this by describing what you want in chat — the agent selects COMPRESS_FILES automatically. For example:

Try saying

“use file manager to compress …”

In a workflow

As a step in a multi-step workflow DAG:

{
  "id": "s1",
  "agent": "file_manager",
  "action": "COMPRESS_FILES",
  "args": {
    "paths": "/Users/me/Documents/file.txt",
    "output": "…",
    "format": "…"
  },
  "depends_on": [],
  "outputs": []
}

Direct call

For scripting, call it directly via POST /execute_tool. Every tool returns { success, message, data }.

curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/execute_tool \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"tool_name":"COMPRESS_FILES","args":{"paths":"/Users/me/Documents/file.txt","output":"…","format":"…"}}'
