Tool Name	Summary
match_hex_to_paint_colors	Convert any HEX color code into the closest official Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, and Behr paint colors using scientific CIEDE2000 (ΔE00) color difference, LRV, and undertone classification.
find_cross_brand_paint_equivalent	Find the closest cross-brand paint color equivalents (dupes) across Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, and Behr by paint name or code (e.g. "SW 7029", "Agreeable Gray", "OC-65", "Chantilly Lace").
calculate_ciede2000_swatch_distance	Compute exact CIE Lab* coordinates, Light Reflectance Value (LRV), and perceptual CIEDE2000 (ΔE00) distance between any two HEX colors with commercial paint-matching tolerance grading.
analyze_paint_lrv_and_room_exposure	Evaluate how a paint color LRV (0–100) behaves in North-facing, South-facing, East-facing, West-facing, or windowless rooms and HOA exterior LRV restrictions.
calculate_room_paint_gallons_estimator	Calculate exact gallons and quarts of wall paint and primer needed after subtracting doors and windows at 350–400 sq ft per gallon.
recommend_paint_sheen_finish	Recommend optimal paint sheen (Flat/Matte, Eggshell, Satin, Semi-Gloss, Cabinet Urethane Enamel) based on room humidity, traffic scrubbability, and drywall imperfection hiding.
simulate_kelvin_lighting_undertone_shift	Predict how warm 2700K incandescent/LED, 3000K soft white, 3500K neutral, and 5000K daylight bulbs shift warm greige, green-gray, violet-gray, and creamy white undertones.
generate_coordinating_trim_and_accent_palette	Generate designer-tested coordinating trim white, ceiling flat white, and contrasting accent colors matched to a main wall HEX or paint swatch.
