Intercept tool boundaries for guarantees

problem / slide 1 of 5

Why post-tool normalization matters

Normalizing at the boundary removes an error class instead of asking the model to reinterpret formats on every call. An epoch timestamp represents time as a number counted from January 1, 1970 UTC. Convert epoch timestamps and ISO dates into one standard date format before appending results.
