Your bot is more than its code. It needs somewhere to keep data, somewhere to keep images, a way to run on a schedule, credentials for the services it talks to, and a record of what it did. All six of those live in the Tools tab.
If you’ve used Paige before, or followed an older guide, these used to live under Settings. They moved to their own tab — Settings is now just for configuring your project, while Tools is for the machinery your bot actually runs on.

​
What’s in the tab

Database

Browse and edit your tables, export them, and run SQL. Where your bookings, contacts, and everything else your bot remembers actually live.

Storage

The images and documents your bot can send, plus anything customers have sent in that you’ve chosen to keep.

Scheduled Tasks

Run part of your bot on a repeating schedule — a morning reminder, a nightly sync, a weekly report.

Secrets

API keys and tokens your bot code reads at runtime, kept out of your code.

Connectors

One-click connections to Airtable and Slack, so your bot can read and write there without you handling a token.

Logs

What your bot printed while it ran. The first place to look when something misbehaves.

How Tools relates to Deploy

This trips people up, so it’s worth being explicit — the six sections don’t all behave the same way when you deploy.
You don’t have to visit this tab to use most of what’s in it. Ask in chat and the Code agent will create tables, write scheduled tasks, and use your stored media for you. Tools is where you go to look at what it did — or to do something by hand.
