Estimate, not tax advice.
`find_price_online`read-only	PAUSED: live online price references are switched off while a legal review is under way; calls return an error. Find indicative online prices from Google Shopping UAE. New searches have strict daily limits. If queued, wait retry_after_s before calling again. Delivery is excluded; check product variants, stock and final price at the store.

Tuition only; confirm with the school.
`get_school_uniforms`read-only	Official school uniform items and prices for a Dubai/UAE school (supplier catalogue, item by item), plus KHDA tuition and school bus fees when linked. No kit total is invented: schools require different quantities.
