I'm adding uptime data to my personal LLM bot. Does this information belong in the system prompt? That was my initial plan, but I'm thinking that a tool would be better. Tools let me see information provenance ("queried the uptime tool"). There's also a small caching benefit.

There's something pleasingly self-referential about configuring an agent by talking to it. > Remember that [fact about data formats]. Agent: Noted. ... realise nothing happened ... > Write to your rules file that when I say "remember", I want you to write to the rules file.

I'm playing with Zeal/Dash so I can view stdlib docs offline. (I've been coding on public transport recently, without a reliable data connection.) Anyone have tips for making the most of this setup? AFAICT docsets are basically HTML underneath.
