  • Give an Agent a Tool

    Give an Agent a Tool

    September 15, 2025

    A demonstration of a fundamental paradigm shift in computer programming: from writing explicit code for every scenario to giving intelligent agents the right tools and letting them figure it out. This project shows how the same task that requires hundreds of lines of complex branching logic in traditional programming becomes simple and flexible with agentic AI. Through a real-world example of extracting contacts from varied CSV formats, we compare traditional approaches against agent-based data processing that handles unexpected formats without code changes, demonstrating the 'give an agent a tool' paradigm in action.
