I'm kind of surprised Claude decided to control the fuel pump directly. I was having Sol help me get control of a CNC mill, and it was pretty adamant about always building tools for every attempt at control.

It usually builds throw away tooling. It’s not polished or user friendly. If you give it a directive to preserve and document tooling it will reuse it later and potentially improve it.
