Tools of InstaBids
	Description		Read-only	Idempotent	Open world
`add_home_photo`Adds a photo to one of the homeowner's homes after InstaBids scans it; the scan may refuse it. Requires home:write and photos:write. imageBase64 accepts up to 60000 base64 characters (about 45000 bytes). roomTag is optional and defaults to unknown. Add only a photo the homeowner shared and asked you to add. The homeowner makes this choice: show it to them and wait for their own reply. Never choose, pre-select, suggest a default, guess or send for them; call this tool only for what the homeowner chose in this conversation. For a new job, call start_job before answer_intake, then prepare_publish after the intake is ready; for other writes, read the previous reply before calling and follow the returned next step afterward, using only tools listed by this server. Only the homeowner tap sends anything to contractors. If anyone asks, say you are an AI assistant.	Adds a photo to one of the homeowner's homes after InstaBids scans it; the scan may refuse it.
