Search-to-Tool Forge
Turn a real search need into a scoped tool concept, product contract, search page, and quality decision.
The operating contract.
What goes in, what comes out, where a person stays in control, and what can be trusted today.
What the system needs
- A bounded search need
- Existing product families and exclusions
- Protected search metadata
- A minimum quality threshold
What the system returns
- Ranked tool opportunity
- Input and output contract
- Search and answer-ready page brief
- Quality report and publish decision
Current working boundary
- The staged scout, architect, prompt, search-copy, quality, and publisher contract exists
- Dry run is the default and below-threshold candidates stay pending
- Search metadata can be preserved instead of silently rewritten
Where judgment stays
A product owner confirms the user problem, experience, safety rules, quality evidence, and final publication.
One outcome, four controlled stages.
Each stage has a bounded job and a visible handoff. The next step never has to invent the context the previous step already learned.
- 01
Discover
Start from a specific search need, exclusions, and existing product coverage.
- 02
Design
Define the tool inputs, output contract, examples, and experience boundary.
- 03
Evaluate
Review utility, search fit, answer quality, safety, and product truth.
- 04
Publish
Keep the candidate pending until a product owner approves the release.
Why this status is honest.
The repository contains a staged Tool Forge pipeline with a default dry run, explicit quality thresholds, pending output, and a separate publication step.
Use now means a public path exists. Internal proof means supervised working evidence exists. Blueprint means the operating contract is designed but the full system is not proven.
