Tool Integrator

Built a system that chains 3+ AI tools together (e.g., vision + reasoning + action) to accomplish something none could alone.

The idea

Chaining tools is hard because each handoff is a place data can go wrong. Have your kid sketch the data flow on paper before they write any code: what comes in, what goes out, where format mismatches will live. The diagram is the design. Without it, chained tools become a debugging nightmare. With it, the build is mostly translating the diagram into code.

Steps
  1. Sketch the data flow on paper: 3+ tools, what comes in and out.
  2. Build the integration. Handle format mismatches.
  3. Run on a real task. Document each step.
  4. Demo what the chain does that none could alone.
What counts

A working system chaining 3+ AI tools for a task none could complete alone. A demo and diagram are plenty.
