How does Tool Use Coach prevent an AI agent from making 'erratic' tool calls?

This skill provides a structured protocol and rubric that enforces planning and verification, preventing agents from making redundant, hallucinated, or risky tool calls during complex tasks.

Which AI agents or development environments is this skill compatible with?

It is designed as a framework-agnostic skill compatible with any tool-enabled agent, including Claude Code, Cursor, and custom MCP (Model Context Protocol) setups.

What exactly is included in the purchase of this skill?

The package includes the core planning rubric, safety protocols, and systematic recovery patterns designed to be integrated directly into your agent's system instructions or workflow configuration.

How do I install the Tool Use Coach into my existing AI workflow?

Installation is straightforward: you simply import the provided protocols into your agent’s instruction set to immediately activate the evidence-based verification and least-privilege tool selection.

Will I receive updates if the tool-use protocols are improved over time?

Yes, buyers receive lifetime access to any future refinements of the protocol, ensuring your agent's tool-handling strategies stay current with the latest AI model behavior updates.

Are there specific types of tools that benefit most from this coaching framework?

While it works with any toolset, it is particularly effective for workflows involving search, file editing, and command execution where irreversible actions require high precision.

Proposed Plan:
1. 'ls -R' to locate the target config (Avoids heavy grep).
2. 'sed' for the specific line fix (Safer than overwriting file).
3. 'npm test' to verify the fix hasn't broken the build.
Reason: Minimizes side effects and ensures state change is validated.

About This Skill

What it does

Tool Use Coach transforms haphazard AI tool execution into a structured, reliable workflow. It forces agents to plan, verify, and use the principle of least privilege when selecting tools. Instead of your agent "hallucinating" tool calls or performing redundant actions, this skill implements a strict protocol for evidence-based tool use.

Why use this skill

Prompting an AI to "use tools" often leads to inefficient loops or risky, irreversible actions. This skill provides a developer-centric framework that emphasizes:

Tool Minimalalism: Choosing the smallest, safest tool for the job.
Verification First: Treating tool output as claims that must be validated against the goal.
Risk Mitigation: Preventing chained irreversible actions without intermediate checks.
Failure Recovery: Implementing systematic fallback patterns when a tool call fails.

Supported Workflows

Designed for integration with any tool-enabled agent (like Claude Code, Cursor, or custom MCP setups), it provides a compact planning rubric and recovery patterns that work across search, edit, and execution toolsets.

Use Cases

Reduce redundant and expensive API or tool calls during execution
Generate a step-by-step verification plan for high-risk state changes
Implement 'least powerful tool' logic to improve agent safety and speed
Recover gracefully from failed tool calls with structured fallback logic
