SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Junior engineers and students often get stuck on course concepts and need patient, beginner-friendly explanations grounded in the actual grad academy curriculum rather than generic or overly advanced answers. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Curriculum-grounded answers: Fetches the relevant course slide files from the grad academy repository and bases explanations on that material before supplementing with reputable external sources. - Broad topic coverage: Covers AI tools, GitHub Copilot, prompt engineering, Git workflows, SOLID principles, REST APIs, Node.js, TypeScript, MVC, SQL, Prisma, frontend development, CI/CD, cryptography, OWASP Top 10, and web authentication. - Use Case: A graduate asks "how does JWT work" and receives a plain-language explanation drawn from the web authentication slides, plus a pointer to a related exercise to try next. ## Quick Start Ask the tutor a course question such as "what is the single responsibility principle" and it will fetch the relevant slides and explain the concept from first principles.
