```
### `Tool` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/tools/base.py#L140" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

```python
to_mcp_tool(self, **overrides: Any) -> MCPTool
```
Convert the FastMCP tool to an MCP tool.
#### `from_function` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/tools/base.py#L218" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
```python
from_function(cls, fn: Callable[..., Any]) -> FunctionTool
```
Create a Tool from a function.
#### `run` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/tools/base.py#L258" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
```python
run(self, arguments: dict[str, Any]) -> ToolResult
```
Run the tool with arguments.
This method is not implemented in the base Tool class and must be
implemented by subclasses.
`run()` can EITHER return a list of ContentBlocks, or a tuple of
(list of ContentBlocks, dict of structured output).

```python
convert_result(self, raw_value: Any) -> ToolResult
```
Convert a raw result to ToolResult.
Handles ToolResult passthrough and converts raw values using the tool's
attributes (serializer, output_schema) for proper conversion.

**Args:**
- `docket`: The Docket instance
- `arguments`: Tool arguments
