/build-tool

Usage

/build-tool <tool-name>
/build-tool cursor
/build-tool "Bolt.new"

Pass a tool name. The agent determines the slug and searches for current data.

What it does

1. Checks content/tools/ — if the JSON already exists, reports it and stops
2. Searches the web for current pricing, platform support, and the official URL
3. Determines the correct values for every required field
4. Writes content/tools/<slug>.json with all fields populated
5. Reports the file path and any fields left uncertain for human review
