Registration alone is not a production-quality guarantee. |\n| Browser execution | Automatic updates after valid input or file selection. |\n| Browser processing | Browser; see tool notes for network behavior. |\n| HTTP API | Not callable through HTTP. |\n| Browser-agent interface | run_current_tool |\n\n### Implementation notes\n\nShows both salt/water and salt/total-solution percentages. Mass arithmetic only; this is not a validated curing, fermentation or preservation process. Calculated on your device. Changing units keeps the entered numbers.\n\n### Inputs and settings\n\nNo free-text input is required. Use the file inputs and/or settings below.\n\n| Setting | Meaning | Control type | Default | Constraints |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| `mode` | Calculate | select | \"Make a target brine\" | Allowed: Make a target brine, Measure a mixture |\n| `basis` | Target salt percentage basis | select | \"Salt / total solution mass\" | Allowed: Salt / total solution mass, Salt / water mass |\n| `water` | Water mass | number | 1000 | min=0 max=100000000 step=any |\n| `target` | Target salt percentage | number | 3 | min=0 max=100 step=any |\n| `salt` | Salt mass in the mixture | number | 30 | min=0 max=100000000 step=any |\n| `massUnit` | Mass unit | select | \"g\" | Allowed: g, kg, oz, lb |\n\n### Browser-agent workflow\n\n1. Open the human page in a browser that supports WebMCP.\n2. Discover the interface exposed by that page; use its actual schema.\n3. Select files on the page first when the tool requires files.\n4. Call `run_current_tool` with valid input and settings.\n5. Inspect the returned result or error and the displayed output. Retrieve files from the displayed download links.\n\nCalls do not automatically copy or download results. Browser permissions still apply. Interface availability alone is not proof of successful execution.\n\n### Planning specification\n\nWater must be positive. Total-solution targets must be below 100%; water-basis targets can reach 100%. Volumes and spoon measures are not used.\n\nThis describes intended requirements. Use the implementation notes, interface schema and observed output to determine current support.\n\n### Complete machine-readable capability record\n\n```json\n{\n  \"id\": \"brine-concentration-calculator\",\n  \"category\": \"calculators\",\n  \"built\": true,\n  \"requirements\": \"Water must be positive.
