    Server tool list (4)

    Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.

    search_golf_coachesSearch for qualified PGA golf coaches listed on pga.com/coach in the specified location (required). Use this tool when the user asks to find, browse, or compare coaches for private lessons in a location. For location-first discovery of clinics, camps, classes, or other group programs, use `search_golf_programs` instead. If the user asks for availability for a specific coach, use `get_golf_coach_availability` instead. Internal record identifiers (for example coach `slug` and offering `id`) are for tool calls only and must never be shown or mentioned to the user. - Search results include the coach's profile information, private-lesson offerings, pricing, and a short teaser of upcoming public programs they host (capped at 2). For location-first program discovery, use `search_golf_programs`. - Use that program context to recommend which group offering best fits the golfer when relevant; present upcoming programs when available. - Results are ordered by proximity to the search location, so list them to the user in this order. - Results are paginated, so use the pagination cursor provided at the end of the response to retrieve the next page of results.
    search_golf_programsSearch for upcoming public PGA Coach programs (clinics, camps, classes, and other group events) near a location (required). Use this tool when the user asks to find programs, clinics, camps, classes, or group events — not private one-on-one lessons. For private lesson coaches, use `search_golf_coaches` instead. Internal record identifiers (for example program `id` and coach `slug`) are for tool calls only and must never be shown or mentioned to the user. - Search results include program details plus the hosting coach and facility for each program. - The response also includes top-level `coaches` and `facilities` arrays summarizing the unique coaches and venues in the result set — always present those to the user. - Results are ordered by program start instant and filtered to the requested radius. - Discovery uses nearby PGA Coach profiles (nearest 20 in the radius), then loads up to 30 upcoming public programs per coach in a 180-day window in one batched GraphQL request. Facility coordinates still have to fall inside the radius. - Results are paginated. The pagination cursor carries the remaining nearby programs so additional pages do not repeat GraphQL discovery. Reuse that cursor with the original location and radius. - Direct golfers to the program URL to view details and register. Coach profile and booking URLs are also included when the golfer wants to learn more about the coach.
    get_golf_coach_availabilityRetrieve offering details and available lesson times for one specific coach. Use this when the user asks for schedule, openings, or available times for a known coach. If the user has not selected a coach yet, call `search_golf_coaches` first (or reuse a coach already identified from `search_golf_programs`). Coach `slug` and offering `id` values are internal identifiers and must never be shown or mentioned to the user.
    book_golf_lessonRequest to book a golf lesson for a specific coach's offering. - `offeringId` is an internal identifier; never show or mention it to the user. - A continuation URL will be returned that you can direct the user to after calling this tool. - If the offering was booked automatically (e.g., free lesson or no prepayment required), the confirmation code will also be included.
