AI Tutor Agent

Python programming tutor built with LangChain, Gemini, and MCP tools.

The agent answers coding questions. When a question needs a check (palindrome, prime, Fibonacci, GCD, and similar), it calls tools from mcp_server.py and then explains the result in plain language.

What the demo shows:

1. Project files in VS Code (tutor_agent.py, mcp_server.py)

2. MCP Inspector connected to Programming Tutor

3. Live tool runs: check_prime(6), reverse_string("hello"), sum_of_digits

4. Codex listing all 13 tools and check_leap_year(2005) → not a leap year
