OptionsCalc

Use this after valid legs are known. Primary final step for P/L, Greeks, POP, and widget payoff. Supports chart and P/L grid heatmap views; set output_view='pl_grid' to start in heatmap view or output_view='pl_curve' to start in chart view. Default quote_mode='refresh' selectively refreshes matched leg prices. For recommendation-style turns, run this once for the chosen strategy unless the user explicitly asks for comparisons.

NOT for stock price lookups — use get_server_info for those. Use this for options-chain discovery when strikes/expirations are not fixed. Returns cached chain-all coverage with DTE, ATM IV, and approximate delta landmarks (16-delta and 30-delta strikes) per expiration so you can pick valid strikes for multi-leg strategies without extra chain calls.

Use this only when you already have specific contract symbols and need a fresh quote check without refetching chain data.

Use this after get_chain_snapshot when you need detailed rows for one expiration. Avoid calling repeatedly across many expirations. Skip this for high-level strategy recommendations unless detailed strike rows are required.

Use this only when you need a scope reminder. For stock prices, stock quotes, company info, market data, or news, answer directly with native tools instead of calling OptionsCalc tools.

Use this when the user asks for strategy ideas or recommendations by outlook/risk profile. Pick one best-fit candidate, then call analyze_strategy once and cite computed risk metrics unless the user asks for side-by-side comparison.

Use this read-only utility to find optionable symbols, available expirations, and a lightweight strike preview for one selected expiration. It does not return chain rows.

Use this when the user wants to inspect position greeks across price or time. One call returns both views in a tabbed widget — do NOT call twice for different dimensions.
