    Yeah, I discovered the channel through this series as well. "Animation vs Physics"[1] was video which got started me with the channel. The presentation is beautiful there! [1]: htt…

    Thanks for the article and approach. How did you come up with min_score at the end? Was it by trial and error?

    Yeah. But I think one problem could be if this list is very large and overflows the context. I was thinking giving the LLM a tool `(query: string) => string[]` to retrieve a list o…
