• I added a very descriptive title to this issue.
• I searched the LangChain documentation with the integrated search.
• I used the GitHub search to find a similar question and didn't find it.
• I am sure that this is a bug in LangChain rather than my code.
• The bug is not resolved by updating to the latest stable version of LangChain (or the specific integration package).

Description

• I am trying to use tools with a local HuggingFace model.
• The ChatHuggingFace documentation suggests that tools are supported, but the generated prompt does not include tools bound with bind_tools.

It's unclear if this is a documentation issue or just a mistake in the code. Since the HuggingFace tokenizer supports tool calling, I think it should be fairly easy to pass the tools to the tokenizer.
