+# Builtin Tools
+
+Builtin tools are native tools provided by LLM providers that can be used to enhance your agent's capabilities. Unlike [common tools](common-tools.md), which are custom implementations that PydanticAI executes, builtin tools are executed directly by the model provider.
+
+## Overview
+
+PydanticAI supports two types of builtin tools:
+
+- **[`WebSearchTool`][pydantic_ai.builtin_tools.WebSearchTool]**: Allows agents to search the web
+- **[`CodeExecutionTool`][pydantic_ai.builtin_tools.CodeExecutionTool]**: Enables agents to execute code in a secure environment
+
+These tools are passed to the agent via the `builtin_tools` parameter and are executed by the model provider's infrastructure.
+
+!!! warning "Provider Support"
+    Not all model providers support builtin tools. If you use a builtin tool with an unsupported provider, PydanticAI will raise a [`UserError`][pydantic_ai.exceptions.UserError] when you try to run the agent.
+
+## Web Search Tool
+
+The [`WebSearchTool`][pydantic_ai.builtin_tools.WebSearchTool] allows your agent to search the web,
+making it ideal for queries that require up-to-date data.
+
+### Provider Support
+
+| Provider | Supported | Notes |
+|----------|-----------|-------|
+| OpenAI | ✅ | Full feature support |
+| Anthropic | ✅ | Full feature support |
+| Groq | ✅ | Limited parameter support |
+| Google | ❌ | Not supported |
+| Bedrock | ❌ | Not supported |
+| Mistral | ❌ | Not supported |
+| Cohere | ❌ | Not supported |
+| HuggingFace | ❌ | Not supported |
+
+!!! note "Groq Support"
+    To use web search capabilities with Groq, you need to use the [compound models](https://console.groq.com/docs/compound).
+
+### Usage
+
+```py title="web_search_basic.py"
+from pydantic_ai import Agent, WebSearchTool
+
+agent = Agent('anthropic:claude-sonnet-4-0', builtin_tools=[WebSearchTool()])
+
+result = agent.run_sync('Give me a sentence with the biggest news in AI this week.')
+# > Scientists have developed a universal AI detector that can identify deepfake videos.
+
+```
+
+### Configuration Options
+
+The `WebSearchTool` supports several configuration parameters:
+
+```py title="web_search_configured.py"
+from pydantic_ai import Agent, WebSearchTool, WebSearchUserLocation
+
+agent = Agent(
+    'anthropic:claude-sonnet-4-0',
+    builtin_tools=[
+        WebSearchTool(
+            search_context_size='high',
+            user_location=WebSearchUserLocation(
+                city='San Francisco',
+                country='US',
+                region='CA',
+                timezone='America/Los_Angeles',
+            ),
+            blocked_domains=['example.com', 'spam-site.net'],
+            allowed_domains=None,  # Cannot use both blocked_domains and allowed_domains with Anthropic
+            max_uses=5,  # Anthropic only: limit tool usage
+        )
+    ],
+)
+
+result = agent.run_sync('Use the web to get the current time.')
+# > In San Francisco, it's 8:21:41 pm PDT on Wednesday, August 6, 2025.
+```
+
+### Parameter Support by Provider
+
+| Parameter | OpenAI | Anthropic | Groq |
+|-----------|--------|-----------|------|
+| `search_context_size` | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ |
+| `user_location` | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ |
+| `blocked_domains` | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ |
+| `allowed_domains` | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ |
+| `max_uses` | ❌ | ✅ | ❌ |
+
+!!! note "Anthropic Domain Filtering"
+    With Anthropic, you can only use either `blocked_domains` or `allowed_domains`, not both.
+
+## Code Execution Tool
+
+The [`CodeExecutionTool`][pydantic_ai.builtin_tools.CodeExecutionTool] enables your agent to execute code
+in a secure environment, making it perfect for computational tasks, data analysis, and mathematical operations.
+
+### Provider Support
+
+| Provider | Supported |
+|----------|-----------|
+| OpenAI | ✅ |
+| Anthropic | ✅ |
+| Google | ✅ |
+| Groq | ❌ |
+| Bedrock | ❌ |
+| Mistral | ❌ |
+| Cohere | ❌ |
+| HuggingFace | ❌ |
+
+### Usage
+
+```py title="code_execution_basic.py"
+from pydantic_ai import Agent, CodeExecutionTool
+
+agent = Agent('anthropic:claude-sonnet-4-0', builtin_tools=[CodeExecutionTool()])
+
+result = agent.run_sync('Calculate the factorial of 15 and show your work')
+# > The factorial of 15 is **1,307,674,368,000**.
+```
