Building the Agent +### Phase 2: Defining the Use Case + +Instead of building a generic agent, I focused on a specific query: -* Created a Python script (`agent.py`) to: +> “How are digital twins used in healthcare?” - * Accept user input - * Select relevant tools - * Call tools via subprocess (Node.js) - * Process and combine results +This helped me design the agent around: + +* Conceptual understanding (methodology) +* Real-world application (case studies) --- -### 3. Tool Integration +### Phase 3: Tool Selection Strategy -* Used two tools: +Rather than using many tools, I intentionally selected two: - * `smile_overview` → for methodology explanation - * `get_case_studies` → for real-world examples +* `smile_overview` → provides structured methodology +* `get_case_studies` → provides real-world implementations -* Implemented subprocess communication: +The idea was: - * Started Node server using `subprocess.Popen` - * Sent JSON-RPC requests via stdin - * Received responses via stdout +> Combine theory + application to produce a meaningful answer --- -### 4. Handling Protocol Issues +### Phase 4: Fixing Tool Execution -Initial attempts failed due to: +Initially, I used `test-client.js`, which only runs demo tests. -* Using `test-client.js` instead of the actual server -* Missing initialization step +The key fix was: -Fixes: +* Switching to `dist/src/index.js` (actual server) +* Adding initialization message: -* Switched to `dist/src/index.js` -* Added: +```json +{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "notifications/initialized"} +``` - ```json - {"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "notifications/initialized"} - ``` +Without this, tool calls returned empty results. --- -### 5. Parsing Tool Output +### Phase 5: Parsing Tool Output -* Tool responses returned nested JSON: +The biggest challenge was handling tool responses. - ```json - { - "result": { - "content": [ - { "type": "text", "text": "..." } - ] - } - } - ``` -* Extracted actual text using: +The output format was nested: - ```python - result["content"][0]["text"] - ``` +```json +result → content → text +``` + +Instead of treating it as plain text, I extracted: + +```python +content[0]["text"] +``` + +This allowed me to access actual usable data. --- -### 6. Improving Relevance +### Phase 6: Improving Relevance + +The `get_case_studies` tool returned multiple industries. Problem: -* Case studies returned multiple industries, not always healthcare. +* The first case study was often unrelated (e.g., smart buildings) -Fix: +Solution: * Modified tool arguments: ```python {"query": "healthcare digital twin"} ``` -* Extracted only the healthcare-related section from the response. +* Extracted only the healthcare section from the response + +This ensured the answer actually matched the user query. --- -### 7. Result Processing +### Phase 7: Structuring the Output + +Instead of dumping raw text, I structured the response into: -* Implemented simple summarization: +* SMILE Framework (Summary) +* Case Study (Summary) +* Analysis +* Conclusion - * Trimmed text instead of splitting sentences (to avoid broken headings) -* Combined: +This made the agent: - * SMILE methodology summary - * Healthcare case study - * Analysis + conclusion +* easier to read +* more explainable +* aligned with real-world reasoning --- -## Challenges Faced +## Problems I Faced -### 1. Incorrect Tool Execution +### 1. Wrong Execution Path -* Initially used `test-client.js` -* Result: only test logs, no usable data +Using `test-client.js` resulted in logs instead of real data. -### 2. Path and Environment Issues +Fix: -* Node process couldn’t find server files -* Fixed using: +* Switched to actual LPI server (`dist/src/index.js`) - ```python - cwd="lpi-developer-kit" - ``` +--- -### 3. Empty Outputs +### 2. Missing Initialization -* Caused by incorrect JSON parsing and incomplete reads -* Fixed using `process.communicate()` and proper parsing +Without sending the initialization message, tool calls silently failed. -### 4. Irrelevant Case Study Results +Fix: -* Default tool output included multiple industries -* Fixed by filtering healthcare-specific content +* Added JSON-RPC initialization before requests --- -## Key Learnings +### 3. Empty or Broken Output + +Initially, outputs were empty or incomplete. + +Cause: -* Tool-based agents depend more on **data flow and integration** than model complexity -* Correct environment setup is critical (paths, working directory, build) -* Parsing structured responses properly is essential -* Multi-tool orchestration improves answer quality significantly -* Relevance filtering is necessary when tools return broad results +* Using `readline()` instead of full output read + +Fix: + +* Switched to `process.communicate()` --- -## Final Outcome +### 4. Irrelevant Case Studies + +Tool returned multiple industries. -The agent: +Fix: + +* Filtered for healthcare-specific content + +--- + +### 5. Poor Summarization + +Splitting by sentences broke headings like `# S.M.I.L.E.` + +Fix: -* Uses multiple tools -* Retrieves real data from LPI -* Processes and filters results -* Produces structured, relevant answers +* Switched to simple truncation (`text[:400]`) --- -## Reflection (Beyond Instructions) +## How I Solved Them -### What I did beyond the instructions -- Filtered tool output to extract only healthcare-relevant case studies instead of returning full raw results. -- Modified tool arguments (`"healthcare digital twin"`) to improve relevance instead of directly passing the user query. -- Implemented manual parsing of nested JSON-RPC responses (`result → content → text`). -- Used the actual LPI server (`dist/src/index.js`) instead of the test client, and handled initialization explicitly. +* Read and understood JSON-RPC communication instead of guessing +* Used proper server instead of test client +* Implemented structured parsing for nested responses +* Added domain-specific filtering for relevance +* Simplified summarization instead of overengineering -### What I would do differently next time -- Abstract tool-calling logic into a reusable client instead of mixing it with agent logic. -- Add clearer reasoning traces showing why tools were selected and how outputs were combined. -- Improve summarization by structuring outputs (Challenge, Approach, Outcome) instead of truncation. -- Make tool selection adaptive instead of rule-based. +--- + +## What I Learned + +### Tool Integration Matters More Than Models + +The challenge wasn’t AI—it was correctly connecting and using tools. + +--- + +### More Data ≠ Better Output + +Raw tool output was too large and noisy. Filtering made answers significantly better. + +--- + +### Explainability Improves Quality + +Structuring output into sections made the agent more understandable and useful. + +--- + +### Debugging Is the Real Work + +Most time was spent fixing: + +* paths +* protocol issues +* parsing + +Not writing logic. + +--- + +### Simplicity Wins + +The final agent is simple: + +* 2 tools +* basic parsing +* structured output + +But it works reliably. + +--- + +## Final Thoughts + +This project was less about building a complex AI system and more about: + +* understanding how tools communicate +* extracting meaningful information +* presenting it clearly + +The biggest takeaway was that a good agent is not defined by complexity, but by: + +> how effectively it connects, filters, and explains information. + +--- From 9253aecc82da7575aff6210f61b5c55bbb398b63 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aryan Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2026 00:10:43 +0530 Subject: [PATCH 10/37] level-3: Aryan --- submissions/Aryan/HOW_I_DID_IT.md | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/submissions/Aryan/HOW_I_DID_IT.md b/submissions/Aryan/HOW_I_DID_IT.md index 058ea389..1b071677 100644 --- a/submissions/Aryan/HOW_I_DID_IT.md +++ b/submissions/Aryan/HOW_I_DID_IT.md @@ -119,7 +119,7 @@ This made the agent: ### 1.
