    Select it under Tools when you start a swarm.

  4. Step 4

    Every agent can call its tools.

Notes

  • Names start with a lowercase letter; then letters, numbers, underscores; 24 max.
  • Preview hosts: TinyFish (agent.tinyfish.ai/mcp). Ask us for others.
  • Web search is built in. The deep-research examples also expect a server named tinyfish.
