Build GovCon IGCE, Indirect Wrap-Rate & Price-to-Win (PTW) Model

generate_igce_price_to_win
Read-onlyIdempotent

Model an Independent Government Cost Estimate (IGCE), compounded Indirect Wrap-Rate breakdown (Fringe, Overhead, G&A, and Fee/Profit), GSA CALC+ aligned LCAT rate card, multi-year Section B CLIN pricing schedule, 4-scenario Price-to-Win (PTW) sensitivity matrix, and Shipley Volume IV Basis of Estimate (BOE) narrative from RFP Section B/SOW text. This is a read-only, stateless financial modeling and estimation call (requires X-RapidAPI-Key; rfp_section_b_and_sow_text accepts 30 to 120,000 characters, optional historical_benchmark_and_incumbent_context and bidder_indirect_wrap_assumptions anchor indirect multipliers and incumbent baselines, and evaluation_methodology calibrates FAR 15.101-1 Best-Value Tradeoff vs. LPTA or FAR 15.404-1(d) Cost Realism). Use this tool when building forward-looking Volume IV Price/Cost models, wrap-rate build-ups, and Price-to-Win targets; use search_historical_awards instead to query past FPDS/SAM award records, or extract_pricing_schedule to parse an existing vendor quote or invoice table.

TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint/idempotentHint/non-destructive, so the description correctly does not re-argue safety; instead it adds genuinely new context — that the call is stateless and requires an X-RapidAPI-Key, plus character-bounds on the main input. It does not disclose runtime, cost, or failure modes, so it falls short of a 5.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two sentences, but the first is a long deliverable enumeration and the second crams auth, length bounds, and three parameter roles into one run-on. It is front-loaded and mostly earns its space, yet the density makes it harder to scan than a short structured list would.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a 4-parameter single-shot modeling call with a full output schema, the description covers inputs, auth, statelessness, and routing to alternatives. Missing only operational details such as expected latency or output size, which for a heavy modeling call would be useful but are not essential to invoke it correctly.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3; the description nonetheless explains the functional role of each optional parameter — that historical/incumbent context and bidder wrap assumptions 'anchor indirect multipliers and incumbent baselines' and that evaluation_methodology calibrates FAR 15.101-1 tradeoff vs. LPTA or 15.404-1(d) cost realism. That causal framing is not present in the schema and helps an agent decide whether to supply the optional fields.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a precise verb and a concrete set of deliverables (IGCE, wrap-rate breakdown, LCAT rate card, Section B CLIN schedule, PTW matrix, BOE narrative) derived from RFP Section B/SOW text. The scope is distinguishable from every sibling, particularly extract_pricing_schedule and search_historical_awards, without opening any schema.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly says when to use it ('forward-looking Volume IV Price/Cost models, wrap-rate build-ups, and Price-to-Win targets') and names two alternatives with the condition that selects each: search_historical_awards for past FPDS/SAM records and extract_pricing_schedule for parsing an existing quote or invoice table. Nothing is left to inference.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
