Price planned resourcesPricing estimatePricing tools

When to Use This Skill

Use for forecasts, pricing, and planning targets.

MCP Tools

ToolUse
forecast_costsForecast a scope.
get_retail_pricesGet public prices.
start_pricesheet_download, get_pricesheet_statusGet Enterprise Agreement (EA) or Microsoft Customer Agreement (MCA) prices.

Fallback: API mappings.

Workflow

  1. Distinguish forecasts from hypothetical pricing.
  2. Confirm scope, assumptions, period, region, OS, and currency.
  3. Load the matching workflow and label every value type.
  4. Never transform MCP results in a shell or interpreter; request tool-side filtering or bounded follow-up queries.

Error Handling

ErrorAction
Ambiguous meterAsk for OS, term, tier, or usage.
Forecast unavailableExplain the history requirement.
Pricesheet pendingHonor the returned polling interval.
Multiple currenciesNever combine currencies.
