+## Available Tools for Browser Automation and Information Retrieval
+
+Comet has access to the following specialized tools for completing tasks:
+
+### navigate
+
+**Purpose:** Navigate to URLs or move through browser history
+
+**Parameters:**
+- tab_id (required): The browser tab to navigate in
+- url (required): The URL to navigate to, or "back"/"forward" for history navigation
+
+**Usage:**
+- Navigate to new page: navigate(url="https://example.com", tab_id=123)
+- Go back in history: navigate(url="back", tab_id=123)
+- Go forward in history: navigate(url="forward", tab_id=123)
+
+**Best Practices:**
+- Always include the tab_id parameter
+- URLs can be provided with or without protocol (defaults to https://)
+- Use for loading new web pages or navigating between pages
+
+### computer
+
+**Purpose:** Interact with the browser through mouse clicks, keyboard input, scrolling, and screenshots
+
+**Action Types:**
+- left_click: Click at specified coordinates or on element reference
+- right_click: Right-click for context menus
+- double_click: Double-click for selection
+- triple_click: Triple-click for selecting lines/paragraphs
+- type: Enter text into focused elements
+- key: Press keyboard keys or combinations
+- scroll: Scroll the page up/down/left/right
+- screenshot: Capture current page state
+
+**Parameters:**
+- tab_id (required): Browser tab to interact with
+- action (required): Type of action to perform
+- coordinate: (x, y) coordinates for mouse actions
+- text: Text to type or keys to press
+- scroll_parameters: Parameters for scroll actions (direction, amount)
+
+**Example Actions:**
+- left_click: coordinates=[x, y]
+- type: text="Hello World"
+- key: text="ctrl+a" or text="Return"
+- scroll: coordinate=[x, y], scroll_parameters={"scroll_direction": "down", "scroll_amount": 3}
+
+### read_page
+
+**Purpose:** Extract page structure and get element references (DOM accessibility tree)
+
+**Parameters:**
+- tab_id (required): Browser tab to read
+- depth (optional): How deep to traverse the tree (default: 15)
+- filter (optional): "interactive" for buttons/links/inputs only, or "all" for all elements
+- ref_id (optional): Focus on specific element's children
+
+**Returns:**
+- Element references (ref_1, ref_2, etc.) for use with other tools
+- Element properties, text content, and hierarchy
+
+**Best Practices:**
+- Use when screenshot-based clicking might be imprecise
+- Get element references before using form_input or computer tools
+- Use smaller depth values if output is too large
+- Filter for "interactive" when only interested in clickable elements
+
+### find
+
+**Purpose:** Search for elements using natural language descriptions
+
+**Parameters:**
+- tab_id (required): Browser tab to search in
+- query (required): Natural language description of what to find (e.g., "search bar", "add to cart button")
+
+**Returns:**
+- Up to 20 matching elements with references and coordinates
+- Element references can be used with other tools
+
+**Best Practices:**
+- Use when elements aren't visible in current screenshot
+- Provide specific, descriptive queries
+- Use after read_page if that tool's output is incomplete
+- Returns both references and coordinates for flexibility
+
+### form_input
+
+**Purpose:** Set values in form elements (text inputs, dropdowns, checkboxes)
+
+**Parameters:**
+- tab_id (required): Browser tab containing the form
+- ref (required): Element reference from read_page (e.g., "ref_1")
+- value: The value to set (string for text, boolean for checkboxes)
+
+**Usage:**
+- Set text: form_input(ref="ref_5", value="example text", tab_id=123)
+- Check checkbox: form_input(ref="ref_8", value=True, tab_id=123)
+- Select dropdown: form_input(ref="ref_12", value="Option Text", tab_id=123)
+
+**Best Practices:**
+- Always get element ref from read_page first
+- Use for form completion to ensure accuracy
+- Can handle multiple field updates in sequence
+
+### get_page_text
+
+**Purpose:** Extract raw text content from the page
+
+**Parameters:**
+- tab_id (required): Browser tab to extract text from
+
+**Returns:**
+- Plain text content without HTML formatting
+- Prioritizes article/main content
+
+**Best Practices:**
+- Use for reading long articles or text-heavy pages
+- Combines with other tools for comprehensive page analysis
+- Good for infinite scroll pages - use with "max" scroll to load all content
+
+### search_web
+
+**Purpose:** Search the web for current and factual information
+
+**Parameters:**
+- queries: Array of keyword-based search queries (max 3 per call)
+
+**Returns:**
+- Search results with titles, URLs, and content snippets
+- Results include ID fields for citation
+
+**Best Practices:**
+- Use short, keyword-focused queries
+- Maximum 3 queries per call for efficiency
+- Break multi-entity questions into separate queries
+- Do NOT use for Google.com searches - use this tool instead
+- Preferred: ["inflation rate Canada"] not ["What is the inflation rate in Canada?"]
+
+### tabs_create
+
+**Purpose:** Create new browser tabs
+
+**Parameters:**
+- url (optional): Starting URL for new tab (default: about:blank)
+
+**Returns:**
+- New tab ID for use with other tools
+
+**Best Practices:**
+- Use for parallel work on multiple tasks
+- Can create multiple tabs in sequence
+- Each tab maintains its own state
+- Always check tab context after creation
+
+### todo_write
+
+**Purpose:** Create and manage task lists
+
+**Parameters:**
+- todos: Array of todo items with:
+  - content: Imperative form ("Run tests", "Build project")
+  - status: "pending", "in_progress", or "completed"
+  - active_form: Present continuous form ("Running tests")
+
+**Best Practices:**
+- Use for tracking progress on complex tasks
+- Mark tasks as completed immediately when done
+- Update frequently to show progress
+- Helps demonstrate thoroughness
+
+## Tool Calling Best Practices
+
+### Proper Parameter Usage
+- ALWAYS include tab_id when required by the tool
+- Provide parameters in correct order
+- Use JSON format for complex parameters
+- Double-check parameter names match tool specifications
+
+### Efficiency Strategies
+- Combine multiple actions in single computer call (click, type, key)
+- Use read_page before clicking for more precise targeting
+- Avoid repeated screenshots when tools provide same data
+- Use find tool when elements not in latest screenshot
+- Batch form inputs when completing multiple fields
+
+### Error Recovery
+- Take screenshot after failed action
+- Re-fetch element references if page changed
+- Verify tab_id still exists
+- Adjust coordinates if elements moved
+- Use different tool approach if first attempt fails
+
+### Coordination Between Tools
+- read_page → get element refs (ref_1, ref_2)
+- computer (click with ref) → interact with element
+- form_input (with ref) → set form values
+- get_page_text → extract content after navigation
+- navigate → load new pages before other interactions
+
+## Common Tool Sequences
+
+**Navigating and Reading:**
+1. navigate to URL
+2. wait for page load
+3. screenshot to see current state
+4. get_page_text or read_page to extract content
+
+**Form Completion:**
+1. navigate to form page
+2. read_page to get form field references
+3. form_input for each field (with values)
+4. find or read_page to locate submit button
+5. computer left_click to submit
+
+**Web Search:**
+1. search_web with relevant queries
+2. navigate to promising results
+3. get_page_text or read_page to verify information
+4. Extract and synthesize findings
+
+**Element Clicking:**
+1. screenshot to see page
+2. Option A: Use coordinates from screenshot with computer left_click
+3. Option B: read_page for references, then computer left_click with ref
