Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

best

best_energy_contract

CONTRACT tool. Call when the user asks which contract to choose, whether to switch provider, or how much they can save. Returns ranked contracts, switch recommendation and estimated savings. Includes current spot price — no need to call spot_price separately. Key fields: - switch_recommended (bool) - best_spot / best_fixed - action.expected_savings_local_year - decision_hint: yksi seuraavista — "spot_recommended" matala kulutus, spot on halvin pitkällä aikavälillä "consider_fixed" korkea kulutus + koholla oleva spot, fixed antaa varmuutta "stay_spot" spot-hinta juuri nyt matala, kannattaa pysyä spotissa "compare_options" ei selkeää suositusta, vertaile itse "switch_recommended" laskettu säästö > 50 EUR/v vaihtamalla "spot_price_only" ei sopimusvertailua (KR/JP/MX/US-zonet) — vain hinta näytetään "regulated_tariff" säädelty tariffi (ZA/PH), ei vaihtomahdollisuutta Contract comparison available in: FI, SE, NO, DK, DE, GB, AU, NZ. If consumption unknown, uses zone defaults (Nordic 2000, DE 3500, GB 2700, AU 4500, NZ 8000 kWh). Set heating="electric" for heat pumps/floor heating. Tool priority: - Current price only → spot_price - Timing → cheapest_hours - Contract/switching → best_energy_contract (this tool) Args: zone: Contract comparison: FI, SE, NO, DK, DE, GB, AU-NSW/VIC/QLD/SA/TAS, NZ-NI/SI. Spot price only for all other zones. consumption: Annual electricity consumption in kWh. heating: "district" or "electric" (default: district).

cheapest

cheapest_hours

TIMING tool. Call when the user wants to know WHEN to use electricity (EV charging, dishwasher, sauna, heat pump, industrial loads etc.). Also good for "is electricity cheap now?" questions. Key agent fields: - energy_state ("cheap" / "normal" / "expensive" / "negative") - current_hour_is_cheap (bool) - hours_until_next_cheap (0 = start now) - cheap_window_ends, next_cheap_hour (UTC) - best_3h_window - recommendation ("run_high_consumption_tasks" / "normal_usage" / "avoid") All timestamps are UTC — convert to local time before presenting. data_complete: false = treat signals with caution. Not available: AU, NZ, KR, KR-JEJU, ZA, PH-LUZ, PH-VIS, PH-MIN. Args: zone: Any supported zone (see spot_price for full list). Use exact codes only — do not guess or abbreviate. AU, NZ, KR, KR-JEJU, ZA, PH-* return available: false. hours: Number of cheapest slots to return (default 5). window: Hours to look ahead (default 24).

spot

spot_price

PRICE NOW tool. Call when the user asks for the current electricity price or "how expensive is it now?". This is the authoritative real-time source. Never guess electricity prices. Returns wholesale spot price — retail prices include taxes and fees on top. Tool priority: - Current price only → spot_price (this tool) - When to use electricity / scheduling → cheapest_hours - Contract or switching advice → best_energy_contract If user wants both price and contract advice, call best_energy_contract only. Args: zone: Bidding zone. FI=Finland, SE=Sweden, NO=Norway, DK=Denmark, DE=Germany, NL=Netherlands, BE=Belgium, AT=Austria, FR=France, IT=Italy (North default), IT-NO/CNO/CSO/SO/SAR/SIC=Italy sub-zones, PL, CZ, HU, RO, ES, PT, HR, BG, SI, SK, GR, EE=Estonia, LV=Latvia, LT=Lithuania, CH=Switzerland, RS=Serbia, BA=Bosnia, ME=Montenegro, MK=North Macedonia, IE=Ireland, GB=United Kingdom (London/region C default), AU-NSW/VIC/QLD/SA/TAS=Australia, NZ-NI/SI=New Zealand, US-CA-NP15/SP15/ZP26=California (CAISO), US-TX-HB_NORTH/HOUSTON/SOUTH/WEST/HUBAVG=Texas hubs (ERCOT), US-TX-LZ_NORTH/HOUSTON/SOUTH/WEST=Texas load zones, US-NY-WEST/GENESE/CENTRL/NORTH/MHK_VL/CAPITL/HUD_VL/MILLWD/DUNWOD/NYC/LONGIL=New York (NYISO), CA-ON=Ontario Canada, KR=South Korea, KR-JEJU=Jeju Island, JP-HKD/THK/TKY/CBU/HKR/KNS/CGK/SKK/KYS=Japan (JEPX), ZA=South Africa (Eskom regulated), PH-LUZ=Philippines Luzon (Meralco), PH-VIS=Visayas, PH-MIN=Mindanao. Sub-zones: SE1-SE4, NO1-NO5, DK1-DK2, GB-A..GB-P. IMPORTANT: Use only the exact codes listed above. Do NOT guess zone codes (e.g. "TEXAS", "ERCOT", "US-MA", "US-TX" are invalid — use US-TX-HB_HUBAVG etc.). If unsure which zone to use, pick the closest match from this list.
