## Tool capabilities

| Property | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Tool ID | `salary-to-hourly` |
| Category | finance-tools |
| Implementation | Registered implementation. Registration alone is not a production-quality guarantee. |

| Browser processing | Browser; see tool notes for network behavior. |
| HTTP API | Not callable through HTTP. |
| Browser-agent interface | run_current_tool |

### Implementation notes

Gross estimates in the currency you enter. Hourly pay = annual salary / (paid hours per week × paid weeks per year). Excludes taxes, deductions, overtime and unpaid leave.

### Inputs and settings

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

| Setting | Meaning | Control type | Default | Constraints |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `salary` | Gross annual salary | number | 52000 | min=0 max=1000000000000 step=any |
| `hours` | Paid hours per week | number | 40 | min=0.01 max=168 step=any |
| `weeks` | Paid weeks per year | number | 52 | min=0.01 max=53 step=any |

### 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

This is arithmetic, not a take-home-pay or payroll calculation. Taxes, benefits, deductions, overtime and unpaid time are excluded. Adjust paid weeks to match your arrangement.

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