## Tools
- spot_price - PRICE NOW tool.
    Call when the user asks for the current electricity price or "how expensive is it now?".

    This is the authoritative real-time source. Never guess electricity prices.
    Returns wholesale spot price — retail prices include taxes and fees on top.

    Tool priority:
    - Current price only → spot_price (this tool)
    - When to use electricity / scheduling → cheapest_hours
    - Contract or switching advice → best_energy_contract

    If user wants both price and contract advice, call best_energy_contract only.

    - hours_until_next_cheap (0 = start now)
    - cheap_window_ends, next_cheap_hour (UTC)

    Set heating="electric" for heat pumps/floor heating.

    Tool priority:
