+### Compound Tools
+
+Compound tools collapse common multi-step workflows into a single atomic call. Each one wraps two sequential operations in a database transaction — if the second step fails, the first is rolled back automatically.
+
+> **When to use:** Only use compound tools when the place or item does not yet exist. If it already exists, call the individual tools (`assign_place_to_day`, `create_accommodation`, `set_budget_item_members`) directly.
+
+| Tool | Wraps | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `create_and_assign_place` | `create_place` + `assign_place_to_day` | Create a new place and immediately assign it to a specific day. Accepts all `create_place` fields (`place_notes` instead of `notes`) plus `dayId` and optional `assignment_notes`. Returns `{ place, assignment }`. |
+| `create_place_accommodation` | `create_place` + `create_accommodation` | Create a new place and immediately book it as an accommodation for a date range. Accepts all `create_place` fields (`place_notes` instead of `notes`) plus `start_day_id`, `end_day_id`, `check_in`, `check_out`, `confirmation`, and `accommodation_notes`. Also auto-creates a linked hotel reservation. Returns `{ place, accommodation }`. |
+| `create_budget_item_with_members` | `create_budget_item` + `set_budget_item_members` | Create a budget item and optionally set which members are splitting it. Accepts all `create_budget_item` fields plus an optional `userIds` array. If `userIds` is omitted or empty, behaves identically to `create_budget_item`. Returns `{ item }` with members populated. |
+
+**Scope requirements** match the underlying tools: `places:write` for `create_and_assign_place`, `trips:write` for `create_place_accommodation`, `budget:write` for `create_budget_item_with_members` (Budget addon required).
