    Why it is in this group

    • The name "find_shops" says "find": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Find and rank local shops in Chennai for a customer request. Always provide locality when the customer has told you where they are. If the customer has not said where they are, ask them for a Chennai area before calling this tool. Use category when it is clear. Results already satisfy distance, budget, and open-now constraints.
