Interface ToolArgumentsErrorHandler

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.

@FunctionalInterface
public interface ToolArgumentsErrorHandler

Handler for ToolArgumentsExceptions thrown by a ToolExecutor.

Currently, there are two ways to handle errors:

1. Throw an exception: this will stop the AI service flow.

2. Return a text message (e.g., an error description) that will be sent back to the LLM, allowing it to respond appropriately (for example, by correcting the error and retrying).

Since:

1.4.0
