 ### Reading computed costs
 
-`get_estimate_cost` hydrates a saved estimate (by URL or ID) in headless Chromium and reads the calculator's rendered cost — the summary monthly cost plus per-service rows. The summary `monthly_cost` is authoritative; a per-row value can render stale/$0 until the calculator recomputes, so when the per-row total disagrees the response includes a `note` and you should not attribute per-row costs.
+`get_estimate_cost` returns AWS's computed cost for a saved estimate (by URL or ID). Because the calculator prices in the browser, the tool re-shares the estimate through the UI — it presses **Update estimate** (recompute to current pricing) then **Share**, which makes AWS persist the costs — and then reads the resulting saved estimate via the public read API. The response carries `upfront_cost`, `monthly_cost`, `total_12_months_cost` (derived as upfront + 12×monthly, which is how the calculator defines the 12-month total), `pricing_as_of`, and `rows` — every group/line with its own monthly, upfront, and config. There is no pagination, so `rows_complete` is always true.
+
+Because it carries an optional, heavyweight dependency (Playwright + Chromium, not installed by default), `get_estimate_cost` is meant to run **only when the user explicitly asks for the computed cost**. Agents should not invoke it automatically after `export_estimate` or `build_estimate` — those already return the shareable URL, which is the normal end of the flow.
+
+Because Update+Share re-saves, the tool creates a **fresh copy under a new id** (returned as `priced_estimate_url`); the original estimate is unchanged. This avoids two dead ends we ruled out: scraping the rendered table (it paginates at 10 rows) and the Export→file download (which does not fire in headless Chromium).
 
 This is the only part of the server that needs a browser. **Playwright and the Chromium binary are an on-demand dependency, not installed by default.** The tool checks for them first and, when either is missing, returns `cost_available:false` with the exact install commands rather than failing:
 
 ```bash
 npm install playwright        # if the library itself is missing
 npx playwright install chromium   # downloads the ~150MB browser binary
+npx playwright install-deps chromium # installs system dependencies
 ```
 
 Every other tool works without Playwright.

     "The template id for RDS for SQL Server is literally 'rdsForOracle' — this is a shared/legacy template id the calculator reuses across RDS engines, NOT a mis-mapping.

     "GP3 storage silently requires companion fields. When storageType is 'General Purpose-GP3' the calculator ALWAYS emits gp3Iops (baseline 3000) and gp3Throughput (baseline 125 MiBps). The manifest does NOT mark them validations.required, so get_service_fields doesn't flag them and the lint can't refuse without them — but omitting them makes the pricing engine charge for (0 - 3000) IOPS and (0 - 125) MiBps, driving the whole estimate NEGATIVE (issue #44: a db.t3.small Single-AZ Express estimate rendered -35.98 USD instead of 48.02 USD). These are injected automatically via defaultFields; keep them present. Injecting them when a non-GP3 storage type is selected is harmless — the engine ignores them.",

Omitting it on a 7th-gen instance makes a directly-saved estimate silently drop the entire SQL Server/Windows licence (roughly halving the price), even though the calculator's edit view auto-selects it. The lint REFUSES to save a row that omits it when the aggregations pin it to a single value, and tells you the exact value to add (issue #48) — set e.g. {\"Unbundled Licensing\": {\"value\": \"TRUE\"}} in the row for a 7th-gen instance, FALSE for older ones.",
