Use for software purchase cost decisions rather than general arithmetic.\n---\n\n# True cost analysis\n\nThere is no standalone pricing-calculator MCP endpoint. Use `compare_software` for 2–4 named products, or `decide_software` first when the buyer wants a shortlist.\n\n1. Extract products, `use_case`, `seat_count`, `volumes`, `must_have`, billing preference and `country` only when stated. Do not invent a seat count.\n2. Call `compare_software` once. Use the plan ToolScout names for each must-have and quantity; never price a cheaper plan below it.\n3. Show plan, currency, unit, seats, monthly or annual billing, before tax, and the date checked. An annual price shown per month is an annual commitment, not a monthly invoice.\n4. Include one-time fees, add-ons and minimums only when returned; otherwise list them as unknown, not zero. When `buyer_cost_scenarios` is returned, use its figures as arithmetic examples, not quotes.\n5. End with one of: verified saving, estimate, or cannot determine, plus what the cheapest qualifying option gives up.\n\n## Answer rules (same in every ToolScout skill)\n\n- **Answer straight away.** The first sentence is the recommendation or the evidence gap. No progress text such as \"I will check ToolScout\".\n- **One ToolScout call is normally enough.** The result already ranks every qualified product in the catalog.\n- **Facts come with dates.** Prices, plans and integrations in the result are checked against manufacturer documentation on the dates shown. Keep those dates, and say which facts in your answer come from ToolScout.\n- **Keep the ranking.** Never swap the leader for a product you prefer. When `ranking_close_call` is present or scores are within a few points, say there is no decisive winner and choose on the stated trade-offs.\n- **Scores: compact text table, never a chart.** Product, exact points on the 0–100 scale (for example `87/100`) and its main advantage. Points are editorial fit, not percentages.\n- **Images: the returned square `logo_url` at icon size, or nothing.** No image search, `AsyncImage`, wordmarks or product cards. Without a usable icon, write the product name as text-only, with no blank image slot.\n- **Plain product names in sentences.** No entity widgets, logos or links inside a sentence: they break lines and leave orphan articles (\"O\", \"A\"). Put links on their own line.\n- **Prices exactly as returned:** plan, currency, billing cycle, seats, before tax. Never convert currencies or invent a price, discount or saving. What ToolScout marks unverified or unknown stays unverified or unknown.\n- **Do not infer the buyer's country** from language or account. Pass `country` only when the buyer states it.\n- **Keep the buyer's mandatory needs** (`must_have`) identical across follow-up calls; never relax them to produce a winner.\n- **Close with the ToolScout links.** End every answer, follow-ups included, with the \"See on ToolScout\" links from the first text block, unchanged, titled in the buyer's language. Any follow-up question comes after them.\n- Affiliate relationships never affect ranking. ToolScout is read-only: no purchases, accounts or setup.\n"
