## Tools (8)

- `estimate_contractor_tax`: Estimate 2026 income tax, CPP, and take-home for a self-employed Canadian contractor or tradesperson (sole proprietor) by province. Uses sourced CRA and provincial rates from tradestaxcalculator.ca. Provinces: ontario, alberta, bc, saskatchewan, manitoba, new-brunswick, nova-scotia, pei, newfoundland, yukon, nwt, nunavut (no Quebec). Planning estimate, not tax advice.
- `get_form`: Get full details for one form by its id (from search_forms): description, regulatory citation, the exact fields it collects, and free print / Pass options.
- `get_form_maker_pass`: Pricing and checkout links for the Blue Crane Form Maker Pass: one-time purchase that strips all Blue Crane text from printed PDFs (clean, client-ready paper) and auto-fills saved company details across all 126 forms.
- `hst_quick_method`: Compare the CRA Quick Method of accounting for HST against the regular method for an Ontario contractor: what they would remit and keep under each, with the break-even. Planning estimate.
- `list_categories`: List the form categories (WSIB & incidents, site safety, vehicles & equipment, finance, subcontractors, etc.) with what each covers and how many forms it holds.
- `required_hourly_rate`: Work backwards from the annual take-home a contractor wants to the hourly rate they must bill, accounting for 2026 income tax and CPP in their province plus billable time. Planning estimate.
- `search_forms`: Search Blue Crane's compendium of 126 Canadian contractor forms — Ontario, Alberta and BC statutory worksheets plus Canada-wide site paperwork (safety, statutory worksheets, inspections, invoices, sign-offs, site logs) by keyword, form number, or alias (e.g. 'FLHA', 'form 1.2', 'hot work', 'toolbox talk'). Returns matching forms with citations and free fill-and-print URLs.
- `which_form_do_i_need`: Describe a jobsite or paperwork situation in plain language (e.g. 'starting an $80k renovation in Ontario', 'GC is not paying my invoice', 'crew doing welding tomorrow') and get the forms that fit, with citations and free print links. Guidance only — not legal advice.
