The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) is a widely used psychological instrument designed to measure the degree to which situations in one's life are appraised as stressful.

How do I use the `calculate_stress_score` tool?

Provide a JSON object containing the 10 response items (e.g., 'item_1': 3) to the `responses` parameter. The tool will automatically handle reverse scoring and return your total score and stress level.

What are the valid response values?

All responses must be integers between 0 and 4, where 0 means 'Never' and 4 means 'Very Often'.
