FISH: An AI Study Helper for The Finals Built with Opus 5
Ruben Circelli built FISH, an AI-powered Finals study helper that converts pro YouTube guides into random, in-game drills, simulates complete matches, and offers both rulebook and pro-strategy advice; it also quizzes memorization of gadgets, maps, and icons. FISH leverages Opus 5 and Claude to distill a strategy bible from transcripts, then applies it to generated states. Opus 5 is fast and capable but can burn through a five-hour limit and struggles with some web data extraction and memory-following precision. After a week of use, Circelli reports clearer understanding and faster decision-making, though GPT-5.6 still often performs best on other tasks.
