Voxta Assistant Tools
Voxta Utilities: Assistant Tools lets a character read a web page mid-reply through tool calling, with no API key, and blocks local-network URLs.
Voxta Utilities: Assistant Tools (formerly Basic Tools) gives the character a small set of tools it can call while writing a reply, served by Voxta with no API key and no external service: reading a web page for anyone, and running PowerShell or Bash commands for an administrator.
Unlike web search, which finds pages, this fetches one the character already has a URL for — including one you just pasted into the chat.
Setup
It comes installed. To change it: Manage Modules → Voxta Utilities: Assistant Tools.
The web page settings, all optional:
- Web Fetch Action Description — what the model reads to decide when to reach for it.
- Web Fetch Allowed Sites — limit fetching to these sites. Empty allows any public site.
- Web Fetch Max Characters — how much of the page comes back. The default suits an article or a doc page; the model is told when a page was cut short.
Needs a model that supports tool calling. One that doesn't will simply never call it.
Safety
The URL comes from the model, and the model is steered by whatever it has just read — a page, a document, a message from someone else. So Voxta refuses to fetch anything resolving to the machine it runs on or the network around it, checked against the address it is about to connect to rather than the URL, so a redirect or a hostname that resolves inward cannot slip past.
