Analyst Mode: Statements, Insiders, Earnings, Filings
======================================================
By default FinanceTools registers the seven "market brief" tools. Analyst
work needs the long tail too: financial statements, insider trades, earnings
history and SEC filings. Turn them on with `all=True`, or one at a time
(`financials=True`, `insider_trades=True`, `earnings=True`, `sec_filings=True`).

Tools registered here (yfinance provider):
    search_symbols, get_quote, get_price_history, get_company_profile,
    get_key_metrics, get_news, get_analyst_recommendations, get_financials,
    get_insider_trades, get_earnings, get_sec_filings

Prompts to try:
- "Deep dive on NVDA: revenue and margins for the last 4 quarters, insider activity, next earnings date, latest 8-K."
- "Compare the free cash flow of MSFT and GOOGL over the last 3 fiscal years."

The default provider is Yahoo Finance when yfinance is installed. It needs no Financial Datasets key. all=True exposes the eleven tools listed in the source; available statement periods and fields still depend on the provider. The model computes the requested margins from retrieved line items.
