Understanding Agentic AI and Tool Calling

Understanding Agentic AI and Tool Calling: A Simple Chatbot Demo

"Agentic AI" is everywhere — from OpenAI's "Operator" to Claude's "Computer Use". But what does it mean for AI to be "agentic" and use "tools"?

I built an Agentic AI Chatbot demo that goes beyond answering questions from internal knowledge — it actively uses "tools" to find information and take action.

How My Chatbot Demonstrates Agentic Behavior

The chatbot acts as an agent by:

  • Deciding how to answer:
  • When you ask a question, the chatbot determines the best way to find the answer.
  • Accessing Information: It can automatically:
  • Read provided documents.
  • Check Wikipedia.
  • Search the internet.
  • Agentic Action:
  • The chatbot does not just stop at finding information — it also performs actions on your behalf.
  • The chatbot creates issues in Github based on the interactions it had with you and the instructions you gave.
