description: "Tools are how AI agents interact with the world. A well-designed tool is the difference between an agent that works and one that hallucinates, fails silently, or costs 10x more tokens than necessary.

> **Platform Note:** This skill was designed for multi-agent execution. Perplexity Computer handles orchestration automatically — treat sub-agent instructions as sequential steps to complete thoroughly.
