description: |
  This tool retrieves a list of measures defined within a specific Looker explore.
  Measures are aggregatable metrics (e.g., total sales, average price, count of users)
  that are used for calculations and quantitative analysis in your queries.

  Parameters:
  - model_name (required): The name of the LookML model, obtained from `get_models`.
  - explore_name (required): The name of the explore within the model, obtained from `get_explores`.

  Output Details:
  - If a measure includes a `suggestions` field, its contents are valid values
    that can be used directly as filters for that measure.
  - If a `suggest_explore` and `suggest_dimension` are provided, you can query
    that specified explore and dimension to retrieve a list of valid filter values.
