## Tool capabilities

| Property | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Tool ID | `square-footage` |
| Category | calculators |
| Implementation | Registered implementation. Registration alone is not a production-quality guarantee. |
| Browser execution | Automatic updates after valid input or file selection. |
| Browser processing | Browser; see tool notes for network behavior. |
| HTTP API | /api/v1/tools/square-footage/run |
| Browser-agent interface | run_current_tool |

### Inputs and settings

No free-text input is required. Use the file inputs and/or settings below.

| Setting | Meaning | Control type | Default | Constraints |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `length` | Length (feet) | number | 12 |  |
| `width` | Width (feet) | number | 10 |  |

### HTTP contract

API calls process supplied data on the server. The website origin is `https://happytails.ai`. Server API hosting is not connected on the public website yet. Use your local server origin to test these requests.

          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
```

#### Error and retry handling

Failures return a non-200 status and `error.code` plus `error.message`. Correct invalid input before retrying; retry server-busy responses with bounded backoff. Returned files contain Base64 data, not persistent download URLs. Decode and inspect the output before treating conversion as successful. See the shared API guide for the complete status and timeout rules.

### Browser-agent workflow

1. Open the human page in a browser that supports WebMCP.
2. Discover the interface exposed by that page; use its actual schema.
3. Select files on the page first when the tool requires files.
4. Call `run_current_tool` with valid input and settings.
5. Inspect the returned result or error and the displayed output. Retrieve files from the displayed download links.

Calls do not automatically copy or download results. Browser permissions still apply. Interface availability alone is not proof of successful execution.

### Planning specification

Room shapes, multiple areas and chosen units; clear dimension labels.

This describes intended requirements. Use the implementation notes, interface schema and observed output to determine current support.

## Page guide

Calculate rectangular floor area in square feet and square meters.

## How to use Square footage

1. Enter the values you want to calculate and choose the relevant units or settings.
2. The result updates as you type. Adjust the available settings if needed.
3. Review the result, then use Copy result or a download link when available.

## What to expect

Calculate rectangular floor area in square feet and square meters. Enter length and width in feet. Multiply them for square feet, then multiply by 0.09290304 for square meters.
