feat(python): add zeroclaw-tools companion package for LangGraph tool calling

- Add Python package with LangGraph-based agent for consistent tool calling
- Provides reliable tool execution for providers with inconsistent native support
- Includes tools: shell, file_read, file_write, web_search, http_request, memory
- Discord bot integration included
- CLI tool for quick interactions
- Works with any OpenAI-compatible provider (Z.AI, OpenRouter, Groq, etc.)

Why: Some LLM providers (e.g., GLM-5/Zhipu) have inconsistent tool calling behavior.
LangGraph's structured approach guarantees reliable tool execution across all providers.

# zeroclaw-tools
Python companion package for [ZeroClaw](https://github.com/zeroclaw-labs/zeroclaw) — LangGraph-based tool calling for consistent LLM agent execution.
## Why This Package?
Some LLM providers (particularly GLM-5/Zhipu and similar models) have inconsistent tool calling behavior when using text-based tool invocation. This package provides a LangGraph-based approach that delivers:
- **Consistent tool calling** across all OpenAI-compatible providers
- **Automatic tool loop** — keeps calling tools until the task is complete
- **Easy extensibility** — add new tools with a simple `@tool` decorator
- **Framework agnostic** — works with any OpenAI-compatible API
## Installation
```bash
pip install zeroclaw-tools
```
With Discord integration:
```bash
pip install zeroclaw-tools[discord]
```
## Quick Start
### Basic Agent
```python
import asyncio
from zeroclaw_tools import create_agent, shell, file_read, file_write
from langchain_core.messages import HumanMessage
async def main():
# Create agent with tools
agent = create_agent(
tools=[shell, file_read, file_write],
model="glm-5",
api_key="your-api-key",
base_url="https://api.z.ai/api/coding/paas/v4"
)
# Execute a task
result = await agent.ainvoke({
"messages": [HumanMessage(content="List files in /tmp directory")]
})
print(result["messages"][-1].content)
asyncio.run(main())
```
### CLI Usage
```bash
# Set environment variables
export API_KEY="your-api-key"
export API_BASE="https://api.z.ai/api/coding/paas/v4"
# Run the CLI
zeroclaw-tools "List files in the current directory"
```
### Discord Bot
```python
import os
from zeroclaw_tools.integrations import DiscordBot
bot = DiscordBot(
token=os.environ["DISCORD_TOKEN"],
guild_id=123456789,
allowed_users=["123456789"]
)
bot.run()
```
## Available Tools
| Tool | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `shell` | Execute shell commands |
| `file_read` | Read file contents |
| `file_write` | Write content to files |
| `web_search` | Search the web (requires Brave API key) |
| `http_request` | Make HTTP requests |
| `memory_store` | Store data in memory |
| `memory_recall` | Recall stored data |
## Creating Custom Tools
```python
from zeroclaw_tools import tool
@tool
def my_custom_tool(query: str) -> str:
"""Description of what this tool does."""
# Your implementation here
return f"Result for: {query}"
# Use with agent
agent = create_agent(tools=[my_custom_tool])
```
## Provider Compatibility
Works with any OpenAI-compatible provider:
- **Z.AI / GLM-5**`https://api.z.ai/api/coding/paas/v4`
- **OpenRouter**`https://openrouter.ai/api/v1`
- **Groq**`https://api.groq.com/openai/v1`
- **DeepSeek**`https://api.deepseek.com`
- **Ollama**`http://localhost:11434/v1`
- **And many more...**

## Comparison with Rust ZeroClaw
| Feature | Rust ZeroClaw | zeroclaw-tools |
|---------|---------------|----------------|
| **Binary size** | ~3.4 MB | Python package |
| **Memory** | <5 MB | ~50 MB |
| **Startup** | <10ms | ~500ms |
| **Tool consistency** | Model-dependent | LangGraph guarantees |
| **Extensibility** | Rust traits | Python decorators |
Use **Rust ZeroClaw** for production edge deployments. Use **zeroclaw-tools** when you need guaranteed tool calling consistency or Python ecosystem integration.
