🤖 Overview: AI-Powered Tool Selection

The NeuroLink MCP platform features sophisticated AI-driven tool orchestration that enables AI models to dynamically select and execute tools based on task requirements, creating intelligent workflows that adapt to context.

Key Capabilities

• Dynamic Tool Selection: AI analyzes tasks and selects optimal tool sequences
• Confidence Scoring: 0-1 scale confidence ratings for tool selection decisions
• Reasoning Capture: Natural language explanations for tool choices
• Chain Execution: Multi-step workflows with intelligent continuation logic
• Context Preservation: Maintains state across multi-step operations

🏗️ Architecture & Components

Core Orchestration System

export class DynamicOrchestrator {
  private baseOrchestrator: MCPOrchestrator;
  private aiCoreServer: typeof aiCoreServer;
  private chainPlanners: Map<string, ChainPlanner>;

  async executeDynamicToolChain(
    prompt: string,

        decision.args,
        context,
      );

      executionHistory.push(decision);
      currentResult = this.combineResults(currentResult, toolResult);
    }

🎯 Chain Planning Strategies

AI Model Chain Planner

export class AIModelChainPlanner implements ChainPlanner {
  private aiProvider: AIProvider;

  async planNextTool(
    currentContext: string,
    availableTools: ToolInfo[],
    executionHistory: ToolDecision[],
  ): Promise<ToolDecision | null> {
    const systemPrompt = this.buildSystemPrompt(
      availableTools,
      executionHistory,
    );
    const userPrompt = `
      Current context: ${currentContext}

      Based on the current context and available tools, select the next tool to execute.
      Consider:
      1. What information is still needed?
      2. Which tool would be most helpful?
      3. Are we making progress toward the goal?

      Respond with a JSON object containing your decision.
    `;

    const response = await this.aiProvider.generate({
      input: { text: userPrompt },
      systemPrompt,
      maxTokens: 500,
      temperature: 0.3,
    });

    return this.parseAIResponse(response);
  }

  private buildSystemPrompt(
    tools: ToolInfo[],
    history: ToolDecision[],
  ): string {
    return `
      You are an AI tool orchestrator. Your job is to select the best tool for each step.

      Available tools:
      ${tools.map((tool) => `- ${tool.name}: ${tool.description}`).join("\n")}

      Previous decisions:
      ${history.map((d) => `- Used ${d.toolName}: ${d.reasoning}`).join("\n")}

      Select tools that:
      1. Make progress toward the goal
      2. Don't repeat unnecessary work
      3. Build upon previous results

      Return JSON: {
        "toolName": "selected-tool",
        "args": {...},
        "reasoning": "why this tool",
        "confidence": 0.8,
        "shouldContinue": true
      }
    `;
  }
}

Heuristic Chain Planner

export class HeuristicChainPlanner implements ChainPlanner {
  private rules: PlanningRule[];

  async planNextTool(
    currentContext: string,
    availableTools: ToolInfo[],
    executionHistory: ToolDecision[],
  ): Promise<ToolDecision | null> {
    // Apply heuristic rules
    for (const rule of this.rules) {
      const decision = rule.evaluate(
        currentContext,
        availableTools,
        executionHistory,
      );
      if (decision && decision.confidence > 0.7) {
        return decision;
      }
    }

    // Fallback to simple tool selection
    return this.selectFallbackTool(currentContext, availableTools);
  }
}

// Example heuristic rule
const DATA_FETCHING_RULE: PlanningRule = {
  name: "data-fetching",
  evaluate: (context, tools, history) => {
    if (
      context.includes("need data") ||
      context.includes("fetch information")
    ) {
      const dataTool = tools.find(
        (t) => t.name.includes("fetch") || t.name.includes("get"),
      );
      if (dataTool) {
        return {
          toolName: dataTool.name,
          args: { query: extractQuery(context) },
          reasoning: "Detected need for data fetching",
          confidence: 0.8,
          shouldContinue: true,
          priority: 1,
        };
      }
    }
    return null;
  },
};

🚀 Usage Examples

Basic AI Orchestration

import { DynamicOrchestrator } from "@juspay/neurolink/mcp";

// Initialize orchestrator
const orchestrator = new DynamicOrchestrator({
  registry: mcpRegistry,
  aiProvider: "google-ai",
});

// Execute AI-driven tool chain
const result = await orchestrator.executeDynamicToolChain(
  "I need to analyze user feedback data and create a summary report",
  context,
  {
    maxIterations: 8,
    plannerType: "ai-model",
    confidenceThreshold: 0.6,
  },
);

console.log("Final result:", result.finalResult);
console.log(
  "Tools used:",
  result.executionHistory.map((h) => h.toolName),
);
console.log(
  "AI reasoning:",
  result.executionHistory.map((h) => h.reasoning),
);

Multi-Step Workflow Example

// Real-world example: User profile analysis
const profileAnalysis = async () => {
  const prompt = `
    Analyze user profile for user ID 12345:
    1. Fetch user data from database
    2. Get recent activity logs
    3. Calculate engagement metrics
    4. Generate recommendations
  `;

  const result = await orchestrator.executeDynamicToolChain(prompt, context, {
    maxIterations: 10,
    allowRecursion: false,
    timeoutPerStep: 30000,
  });

  // AI might select tools like:
  // 1. database-query (fetch user data)
  // 2. activity-analyzer (analyze logs)
  // 3. metrics-calculator (compute engagement)
  // 4. recommendation-engine (generate suggestions)

  return result;
};

Context-Aware Tool Selection

// The AI adapts based on available tools and context
const adaptiveWorkflow = async (userRequest: string) => {
  const context = {
    userId: "user123",
    sessionId: "session456",
    permissions: ["read-data", "analyze-metrics"],
    preferences: { format: "json", includeCharts: true },
  };

  const result = await orchestrator.executeDynamicToolChain(
    userRequest,
    context,
    {
      maxIterations: 5,
      plannerType: "ai-model",
      confidenceThreshold: 0.7,
    },
  );

  // AI considers:
  // - User permissions (only selects allowed tools)
  // - Session context (maintains state)
  // - User preferences (formats output appropriately)

  return result;
};

      const bucketData = confidenceBuckets.get(bucket);
      bucketData.total++;
      if (decision.outcome === "success") bucketData.successful++;
    });

    // Calculate how well confidence scores predict success
    let totalAccuracy = 0;
    confidenceBuckets.forEach((data, confidence) => {
      const actualSuccessRate = data.successful / data.total;
      const accuracy = 1 - Math.abs(confidence - actualSuccessRate);
      totalAccuracy += accuracy;
    });

🎯 Best Practices

Prompt Engineering for Tool Selection

// Effective prompts for AI orchestration
const bestPracticePrompts = {
  // ✅ Good: Specific and actionable
  good: "Analyze user engagement metrics for Q4 2024 and identify top 3 improvement opportunities",

  // ❌ Poor: Vague and ambiguous
  poor: "Do something with user data",

  // ✅ Good: Clear sequence and context
  goodSequence: `
    For user ID 12345:
    1. Fetch recent purchase history (last 30 days)
    2. Analyze spending patterns
    3. Generate personalized product recommendations
    4. Format as JSON with confidence scores
  `,

  // ✅ Good: Includes constraints and preferences
  goodWithConstraints:
    "Generate weekly sales report including charts, but only use data from authorized regions and format for mobile viewing",
};

Error Handling & Fallbacks

// Robust error handling in orchestration
const robustOrchestration = async (prompt: string) => {
  try {
    const result = await orchestrator.executeDynamicToolChain(prompt, context, {
      maxIterations: 5,
      confidenceThreshold: 0.6,
      timeoutPerStep: 20000,
    });

        { input: prompt },
        context,
      );
    }

    return result;
  } catch (error) {

    // Ultimate fallback
    return {
      success: false,

Performance Optimization

// Optimize orchestration performance
const optimizedOrchestration = {
  // Cache tool metadata for faster planning

  // Parallel execution where possible
  async executeParallelSteps(decisions: ToolDecision[]) {
    const parallelGroups = this.groupParallelizableTools(decisions);

    for (const group of parallelGroups) {
      if (group.length === 1) {

      } else {
        await Promise.all(group.map((decision) => this.executeTool(decision)));
      }
    }
  },

  // Intelligent timeout management
  calculateDynamicTimeout(toolName: string, complexity: number): number {
    const baseTimeout = 10000;
    const complexityMultiplier = Math.max(1, complexity / 5);
    const toolSpecificMultiplier = this.getToolTimeoutMultiplier(toolName);
