# Use the agent SDK you already know

Create the search capabilities you need and add them to your SDK's normal tool collection:

``` python
from serpapi_search_tools import hotels_search, maps_search, web_search

tools = [web_search(), maps_search(), hotels_search()]
```

The package prepares the tool name, description, inputs, validation, and SerpApi request. You continue to choose the model and run the agent through your SDK as usual.


# Installation choices

If your agent SDK is already installed, add only the base package:

``` bash
pip install serpapi-search-tools
```

If you want this package to install a compatible SDK dependency too, use its extra. For example:

``` bash
pip install "serpapi-search-tools[openai-agents]"
```

Replace `openai-agents` with the extra in the table below.

You only need dependencies for the SDKs you use. The base install remains small and also supports direct Python calls.


# Automatic detection is the normal path

When one supported SDK is installed, omit `provider`:

``` python
from serpapi_search_tools import web_search

tool = web_search()
```

If multiple supported SDK families are installed, automatic detection raises an error rather than selecting by import order. Pass the table's provider value explicitly:

``` python
from serpapi_search_tools import web_search

tool = web_search(provider="openai-agents")
```

Use the same explicit provider for every tool in one agent. LangGraph and LangChain count as one adapter family.


# No supported SDK installed

Automatic detection falls back to a normal callable. You can request that form directly with `provider="function"` for scripts, tests, or an unlisted agent framework. See [Support another agent SDK](configuration.md#support-another-agent-sdk).


# Install only what your agent uses

Each extra installs the packages needed to create tools for that SDK. Continue to install and configure the model integration your agent normally uses. In most applications, installing the base package plus one SDK extra keeps the environment easiest to understand and maintain.
