# Weather Karachi System Flow
This document describes the complete flow of the weather data fetching and transformation system.
## System Overview
The weather system consists of skills and specialized subagents that work together to fetch and transform temperature data for Karachi, Pakistan.

## Component Details
### 1. Skills and Commands
#### `/weather` (Command)
- **Location**: `.claude/commands/weather.md`
- **Purpose**: Entry point for weather operations
- **Action**: Invokes `weather-karachi` skill via Skill tool
- **Model**: haiku
#### `/weather-karachi` (Skill)
- **Location**: `.claude/skills/weather-karachi/SKILL.md`
- **Purpose**: Orchestrates the weather fetching and transformation workflow
- **Action**: Launches two specialized subagents sequentially via Task tool
- **Model**: haiku
### 2. Specialized Subagents
#### `weather-fetcher`
- **Location**: `.claude/agents/weather-fetcher.md`
- **Purpose**: Fetch real-time temperature data
- **Data Source**: wttr.in API for Karachi, Pakistan
- **Output**: Temperature in Celsius (numeric value)
- **Tools Available**: WebFetch
#### `weather-transformer`
- **Location**: `.claude/agents/weather-transformer.md`
- **Purpose**: Apply mathematical transformations to temperature data
- **Input Source**: `input/input.md` (transformation rules)
- **Output Destination**: `output/output.md` (formatted results)
- **Tools Available**: Read, Write
### 3. Data Files
#### `input/input.md`
- **Purpose**: Stores transformation rules
- **Format**: Natural language instructions (e.g., "add +10 in the result")
- **Access**: Read by weather-transformer subagent
#### `output/output.md`
- **Purpose**: Stores formatted transformation results
- **Format**: Structured markdown with sections:
- Original Temperature
- Transformation Applied
- Final Result
- Calculation Details
## Execution Flow
1. **User Invocation**: User runs `/weather` command or `/weather-karachi` skill
2. **Skill Invocation**: `/weather` invokes `weather-karachi` skill via Skill tool
3. **Sequential Subagent Execution** (via Task tool):
- **Step 1**: `weather-fetcher` subagent fetches current temperature from wttr.in
- **Step 2**: `weather-transformer` subagent:
- Reads transformation rules from `input/input.md`
- Applies rules to the fetched temperature
- Formats and writes results to `output/output.md`
4. **Result Display**: Summary shown to user with:
- Original temperature
- Transformation rule applied
- Final transformed result
## Example Execution
```
Input: /weather
├─ Invokes: weather-karachi skill (via Skill tool)
│ ├─ Subagent: weather-fetcher (via Task tool)
│ │ └─ Result: 26°C
│ ├─ Subagent: weather-transformer (via Task tool)
│ │ ├─ Reads: input/input.md ("add +10")
│ │ ├─ Calculates: 26 + 10 = 36°C
│ │ └─ Writes: output/output.md
│ └─ Output:
│ ├─ Original: 26°C
│ ├─ Transform: Add +10
│ └─ Result: 36°C
```
## Key Design Principles
1. **Separation of Concerns**: Each component has a single, clear responsibility
2. **Sequential Execution**: Subagents run in order to ensure data dependencies are met
3. **Specialized Subagents**: Task-specific subagents with minimal tool access
4. **Skill-Based Architecture**: Skills orchestrate workflows, subagents execute tasks
5. **Configurable Transformations**: Rules stored externally in input files
6. **Structured Output**: Results formatted consistently in output files
