How resources work
- Resources cost 1 credit per read — 10x cheaper than tool calls.
- Your agent reads resources like files — no parameters, no computation.
- Static resources have fixed URIs. Templates accept a parameter (e.g. tax year, metric).
- Ideal for context-setting: read rates first, then call tools for calculations.
