This page reflects a **previous version of Make AI Agents**. For the latest information, see [Make AI Agent (New)](docId\:rXryASA6852hvhkZ6NhXU).&#x20;
:::

When you use a module as a tool for an AI agent, you don't need to create or configure a scenario manually. Each module tool automatically creates its own scenario with all the necessary inputs and output&#x73;*.&#x20;*&#x4A;ust configure the module tool the same way you'd configure the module itself.

You can review the history and execution logs for the module tools' scenario at any time.

:::hint{type="warning"}
Each module tool is considered an active on-demand scenario. If you’re on the **Free** plan, remember that you can only have two active scenarios at a time.
:::

Create a module tool

You can create a module tool in the **AI Agents&#x20;**&#x63;onfiguration tab or in the **Make AI Agents > Run an agent** module.&#x20;

To create a module tool in the **AI Agents&#x20;**&#x63;onfiguration tab:

:::::WorkflowBlock
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Navigate to the **AI Agents** configuration tab in the left sidebar.&#x20;
:::

::::WorkflowBlockItem
Select an agent you want to add the module tool to.

:::hint{type="info"}
If you don't have an agent yet, refer to the [Create agents](https://help.make.com/manage-ai-agents#Ln8Sl) section.
:::
::::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
In the **Tools** section, click **Add**, and select **Module**.

:::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
Click **Select a module tool**, and then **Create module tool**.&#x20;

:::

::::WorkflowBlockItem
Select the app and then the module you need.

::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/PL8X94efBsjvhfQV3wyyj-DhtD3sk4_bYRmZa7SF3EQ-20250822-105909.png" size="60" width="1072" height="798" position="center" showCaption="false"}

:::hint{type="success"}
The modules available in the app search for module tools include verified apps, excluding trigger modules, Flow Control, and Tools modules.&#x20;
:::
::::

::::WorkflowBlockItem
Configure the module tool's settings:

- Optional: In the **Name** and **Description** field, change the default name and description of the module tool. Clear and precise data helps an AI agent deliver better results. &#x20;
- If required, create a new connection or select an existing one. 
- Configure the module settings relevant to the chosen module.&#x20;

:::hint{type="info"}
For the fields related to scenario inputs and outputs, you can check the **Let AI Agent decide** box to have the AI agent fill them in automatically.

::::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
Click **Add** to add the module to **Tools**. 
:::
:::::

Once you create a module tool, you can use it in your AI agent. It appears in the **Tools** section of your AI agent.&#x20;

In the **AI Agents** configuration tab, you can test the module tool by typing a request in the **Testing & Training&#x20;**&#x63;hat.  &#x20;

::Image[]{src="https://app.archbee.com/api/optimize/oAyFj2GHlBeBVWF5OAir2/q4rs-GqdN2Fe4ygiEYz-Y-20250929-074804.png" size="70" width="2610" height="1298" position="center" showCaption="false"}

You can also create a module tool in the **Make AI Agents > Run an agent** module:&#x20;

::::WorkflowBlock
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Open the **Make AI Agents > Run an agent** module in a scenario.
:::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
In the **Agent** field, select your agen&#x74;**. &#x20;**
:::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
Click **Add tools > Module**.

::Image[]{src="https://app.archbee.com/api/optimize/oAyFj2GHlBeBVWF5OAir2/j7oQpFXtLF0wrjdn1suO8-20250924-080442.png" size="60" width="1224" height="1332" position="center" showCaption="false"}
:::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
Follow the same steps as when creating a module tool in the **AI Agents&#x20;**&#x63;onfiguration tab.

### Scenarios for module tools

Every time you create a module tool, a new scenario is automatically created for it. To view it, click the expand icon next to the module tool name.&#x20;

::Image[]{src="https://app.archbee.com/api/optimize/oAyFj2GHlBeBVWF5OAir2/JPyNtvhhZDgVyXY6hhwbH-20250924-080741.png" size="60" width="1268" height="312" position="center" showCaption="false"}

A scenario created for a module tool is locked by default. To edit it, click **Unlock** in the top-right corner. Then click **Convert.&#x20;**

:::hint{type="warning"}
Once converted, a module tool becomes a regular scenario, and appears as a scenario within your **Make AI Agents tools** and in the **All scenarios** folder.&#x20;

If you only need to edit the module tool (not its scenario), see the [Edit module tool ](https://help.make.com/module-tools-for-ai-agents#qLiN5)section below.&#x20;

You can also rename the module tool from the scenario diagram. Just click its name, and enter a new one.
:::

All the scenarios created for module tools are stored in the **Module tools&#x20;**&#x66;older under the **All&#x20;**&#x61;n&#x64;**&#x20;Uncategorized&#x20;**&#x66;olders. These folders aren't editable, but you can copy the scenarios into your own folders.&#x20;

You can identify a scenario created for module tools by a **Tool** icon next to it.&#x20;

In the **Module tools&#x20;**&#x66;older, you can also activate/deactivate the scenario using the toggle. Click the three dots to edit the custom properties of the scenario, move it to a folder (it will still be visible in the **Module tools** folder), clone it, or delete it.&#x20;

:::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
Click **Delete** to confirm.
:::
::::

To delete a module tool in the **Make AI Agents > Run an agent** module:

::::WorkflowBlock
:::WorkflowBlockItem

:::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
In the **Agent** field, select your agent.&#x20;

::Image[]{src="https://app.archbee.com/api/optimize/oAyFj2GHlBeBVWF5OAir2/a0CChd4iK_XJEPGQRa5Be-20250924-081021.png" size="60" width="1214" height="1342" position="center" showCaption="false"}
:::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
Click **Delete** to confirm.
:::
::::

:::hint{type="info"}
In both cases, your module tool will be delete&#x64;**&#x20;from all instances of the agent&#x20;**&#x61;cross all scenarios. However, the module tool's scenario remains in your **Module tools&#x20;**&#x66;older. So, you can add it again later.&#x20;
:::

To delete a module tool from your account, you need to delete its scenario:

::::WorkflowBlock
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Go to the **Module tools** folder.
:::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
Click the three dots next to the module tool's scenario, then **Delete**.

::Image[]{src="https://app.archbee.com/api/optimize/PL8X94efBsjvhfQV3wyyj-bQrRXgiFjLZtRXkZbpRBW-20250822-114518.png" size="70" width="2594" height="592" position="center" showCaption="false"}
:::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
Click **Delete** once again.
:::
::::

This permanently deletes the scenario. Once deleted, you can't use that module tool again. &#x20;
