Is there a way to enable disable tools in ask and edit mode? #458

Issue

I see that if I switch to edit mode from ask mode then I don't have access to tools in edit mode.

But if I switch to edit mode from agent mode then edit mode does have access to tools.

Is there a way/command to enable tools in edit mode? It would be great if we can also allow tool access in ask mode on the fly.

agent> /ask
