calculate_mortgage

Calculate monthly payment, total interest, and total cost of a mortgage loan. Optionally generate an amortization schedule for the first year and final month.

Instructions

Calculate mortgage/loan monthly payment, total cost, and optional amortization schedule. Returns: {principal, months, monthly_payment, total_interest, total_cost}. See list_bundles for related 'finance-france' calculators.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
principalYesLoan amount in currency units
annual_rateYesAnnual interest rate in %
yearsYesLoan duration in years
with_scheduleNoInclude first 12 months + last month amortization

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
resultNoComputed result. Object whose fields depend on the tool (e.g. {tax, marginal_rate, brackets} for tax tools, {volume_l, gallons} for volume tools).
formulaNoHuman-readable formula or method used (e.g. "I=P·r·t", "Magnus formula").
sourceNoAuthoritative source for the rule or formula (e.g. "Article 197 CGI", "NF DTU 21").
reference_urlNoLink to a calcul2 page documenting the calculation in detail.
Behavior4/5

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

The description details return fields and optional amortization schedule behavior. However, with no annotations, it does not explicitly state that the tool is read-only or safe, though this is implicit for a calculator.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

The description is two sentences, front-loading the main functionality, with zero wasted words. It is highly concise and effective.

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

Completeness5/5

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

Given the low complexity and presence of an output schema, the description is complete. It references a sibling tool for context and covers all essential aspects.

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%, providing a baseline of 3. The description adds value by clarifying the output structure and specifying the schedule includes first 12 months and last month, going beyond the schema.

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?

The description clearly states it calculates mortgage/loan monthly payment, total cost, and optional amortization schedule. It also references related 'finance-france' calculators via list_bundles, distinguishing it from siblings.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description implies usage for mortgage calculations but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives. It vaguely references list_bundles for related calculators, lacking clear when-not guidance.

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