There have been a number of attempts, and I'm curious to get something together. For now I'll assign this to copilot and see what it can drive from the prior attempts and current arch and see if there is a good version of this, I want to determine if a new tool is preferable to an additional arg when creating for example.

Not stale. This feature should be considered mandatory.
