# Define one tool as a JSON fragment. The input_schema is a JSON Schema
# object describing the arguments Claude should pass when it calls this
# tool. This schema includes nested objects (recurrence), arrays
# (attendees), and optional fields, which is closer to real-world tools
# than a flat string argument.
