A tool that builds a tool, that builds a tool, that builds a tool

I wrote earlier about my CLAUDE CODE: Budget Edition.

Well… it evolved.

I loaded NVIDIA’s Nemotron 3 Nano Omni together with a Qwen 2 Coder model, gave my console app access to the Roslyn compiler (the thing that turns C# into actual executable code), and told it:

“Go make your own tools.”

Of course, that’s the kind of statement that demands proof.

I need to approve a tool suggestion before it will be compiled. But once that is done, its DLL is loaded dynamically when we want to call it (meaning we don't have to restart our Console app)! And because our tools are now DLL files, they can be saved on disk!

I'm telling you, it's the beginning of the end!
