### Provider tools

This release brings the ability to use tools that are specific to model providers with [provider tools](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/logic/tools/#provider-tools). You can now mix & match function tools and provider tools in your agent by specifying `Agent(tools=[..])`.

For those that were using the experimental `_gemini_tools` parameter with Google LLMs, that experimental parameter has been removed in favor of provider tools. See usage example [here](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/models/llm/plugins/gemini/#provider-tools).
