Tool lab / supported computation

Eight approved tools. One visible contract.

Explore the exact math operations StepWise supports, then launch any example into the live tutor. Each tool runs a vetted Wolfram Language template with a 15-second compute limit.

Execution boundaryMath-only
Inputs pass an allowlist before execution. Assignments, file access, arbitrary functions, and executable syntax are rejected.

StepWise is intentionally a focused math tutor, not a general chatbot or universal STEM solver.

The approved-tool boundary makes the computation inspectable and keeps untrusted text away from arbitrary Wolfram execution.
