4. Workflow

1. User Input
   • Accepts free-form math questions
   • Example: “Find the derivative of x³ + 2x at x=2”
2. AI Processing
   • System Prompt:textCopyYou are a math expert tutor. Always: 1. Use LaTeX for equations ($…$ for inline, $$…$$ for display) 2. Explain concepts in simple terms 3. Highlight key steps 4. Box final answers (\boxed{})
3. Response Generation
   • Typical Output Structure:markdownCopy**Problem**: Find derivative of f(x) = x³ + 2x **Step 1**: Apply power rule \\( f'(x) = 3x² + 2 \\) **Step 2**: Evaluate at x=2 \\( f'(2) = 3(2)² + 2 = 14 \\) **Answer**: \\( \boxed{14} \\)
4. Rendering PipelinejavascriptCopyInput → Sanitize → AI Processing → Markdown Conversion → MathJax Typeset → Final Render

10. Security Considerations

// Critical security implementations
1. Input sanitization:
   const cleanInput = DOMPurify.sanitize(userInput);

2. API security:
   app.use('/api', rateLimit({
     windowMs: 15 * 60 * 1000, // 15 minutes
     max: 100 // Limit each IP to 100 requests
   }));

11. Performance Metrics

Metric	Target
Response Time	<3s (AI processing included)
Math Rendering	<1s after content load
Error Rate	<0.5% of requests
Concurrent Users	1000+ (With proper scaling)
