[frontier] Maintaining static OpenAPI specs or hand-coded tool definitions that break when APIs change or when novel tools are needed

Implement runtime tool generation: scrape OpenAPI specs or codebase to auto-generate tool schemas at startup, and enable 'meta-tools' where agents can define new tools by writing Python/TypeScript code that gets sandboxed \(E2B\) and registered dynamically without deployment

Journey Context:
Teams maintain 500-line tool definition files that break when the backend API adds a required field. The fix is dynamic tool generation: use LLM to parse OpenAPI specs or even natural language API docs to generate tool definitions at runtime. Next level: 'meta-tools' where the agent can say 'I need a tool that parses PDFs with this specific schema' and the system generates a Python function, sandboxes it \(E2B\), tests it, and registers it for immediate use. This eliminates the 'tool request backlog' bottleneck where engineers must hand-code every new capability and allows agents to adapt to API changes by re-scraping specs.
