  fn.name "system"
  fn.description "Runs system commands"
  fn.params do |schema|
    schema.object(command: schema.string.required)
  end
  fn.define do |command:|
    {success: Kernel.system(command)}
  end
end

example #2

class System < LLM::Tool
  name "system"
  description "Runs system commands"
  params do |schema|
    schema.object(command: schema.string.required)
  end

  def call(command:)
    {success: Kernel.system(command)}
  end
