+## Tool ownership for preconfigured Foundry agents
+
+`FoundryAgent` connects to a PromptAgent or HostedAgent whose instructions, tool declarations, and tool-selection
+behavior are configured in Microsoft Foundry. The `tools=` argument supplies only the local Python implementations
+for function declarations already present on that remote agent; it does not replace or restrict the remote tool
+inventory.
+
+Per-run `tool_choice` restrictions and `allow_multiple_tool_calls` values cannot be sent with an agent reference and
+are ignored with a warning. The framework's unrestricted `tool_choice="auto"` default is omitted silently. Configure
+tool behavior on the remote Foundry agent, or use `FoundryChatClient` when tool selection must vary per request.
+`FunctionMiddleware` and tool approval policies can authorize local Python execution, but they do not change tools
+that execute inside the remote Foundry agent.
