Short answer

How do I convert gas oven knob numbers to temperature?

Tell your AI the number on your gas oven knob. It uses the oven_settings_from_gas tool to give you the exact Celsius or Fahrenheit equivalent. You'll get the specific heat setting needed for your cooking.

The conversion results

What your AI provides

These are the specific outputs your AI generates from a single knob number.

CELSIUS

Metric temperature

The AI calculates the Celsius value from the gas setting. This is what you need for most European recipes.

FAHRENHEIT

Imperial temperature

The AI converts the knob number into Fahrenheit. Use this when following American recipes on a European oven.

RECIPE DATA

Cooking instructions

The AI provides the specific temperature value. You can then use that number to set your oven correctly.

HUMAN

Physical adjustment

The AI gives you the number, but you must physically turn the knob on your oven to that setting.

The workflow

What your AI does when the knob number arrives.

The AI processes your input through a specific conversion tool.
