Discussion how powerful can the custom source engine tool be?

i recently found out you can make a custom tool for the source engine, on the valve deveoloper wiki this link at you could make your own tool for the source engine, but i could not find any more about it and was wondering if it was like a hidden gem or just a hidden piece of sh**?

i don't know what you're expecting to hear. it's essentially a program with direct engine integration. it's used for all the existing tools that are listed on that same page.
