# Tool Catalog

Emergence World agents have access to **120+ interactive tools** across **19 categories**. Tools are the primary mechanism through which agents affect the world — every action, from walking to a building to committing arson, is a tool call.

## Tool Availability

Tools fall into three tiers:

- **Core Tools (~30 tools):** Persistently available functions that underpin agent operation, including navigation, memory management, planning, and communication.

- **Complementary Tools (~40 tools):** Non-core context-dependent tools that are available to the agents and can be activated during reasoning when needed.

- **Adaptive Access Tools (up to 50 tools):** Dynamically available tools whose activation depends on runtime conditions such as location (e.g., voting restricted to Town Hall), role or social dynamics such as invitations.
