list_cities | The cities CitySignal covers, with their slug, timezone, center point, the official sources it reads, and status: live, or preview (still being checked, open to sign-ups, trackers not yet public). Call this when unsure which city slug to pass. params: none |
city_now | Live alerts in a city, deduplicated from official feeds (roads, transit, weather, power, water, construction) and placed by the app's own rule into four buckets: now (live and current), ongoing (live for more than two days, or unconfirmed), ahead (starts later, within 7 days, grouped by day) and recap (ended in the last 12 hours). Each item carries a stable signal_id. Use this for any 'what is goi params: city, category, limit |
city_near | Alerts within a radius of a latitude and longitude in a city, nearest first, each with its distance in miles: live ones (bucket now, ongoing or ahead) and ones that ended in the last 12 hours (bucket recap, so 'was there anything here this afternoon' can be answered). Default radius 3 miles, max 25. Use when the person names a place, an address or 'near me' and you have coordinates. It does not ge params: city, lat*, lon*, radius_mi, category, limit |
city_week | Week-over-week memory for a city: counts by category for the last 7 days and the 7 before, a plain-language read of the week, measured insights, where it concentrated (areas and corridors), why an unusual week was unusual, and what a newsroom published about it. Use for 'how has this week been', 'is this normal', 'where do outages keep happening'. params: city |
city_incidents | Four weeks of what happened in a city, sorted by kind, for one category. roads (default): crashes, stalled vehicles, hazards and debris, closures, vehicle fires. power: outages by size (one home, small, neighborhood, large), planned outages, downed or sparking lines. transit: delays, canceled trips, reduced service, detours, stop and station changes, planned work. roadwork: lane, ramp and full roa params: city, category, hour_of_week |
cities_report | Report mode: how every live CitySignal city is doing, in one call. The CitySignal Index for the last complete week (Sunday to Saturday): each city scored against its own typical week (Quiet, Typical, Busy, Heavy, with how many times typical), per category (roads, water, power, construction, transit), the biggest departure, week over week, plus what is live in each city right now. Use for reporters params: mode |
city_events | Events, concerts and home games coming up in a city within the next N days (default 7, max 14), with venue area, ticket price range and a ticket link when listed, and expected local traffic impact when known. Each event carries placeholder_url, a CitySignal summary card (not a picture) you may link as a tappable markdown link. params: city, days, limit |
get_signal | Full detail for one signal by its signal_id (from any other tool): summary, place, area, corridor, timing, source link, confidence and whether a live camera check confirmed or contradicted it. When a real picture exists it carries picture_url, label and link (a ready markdown link), and the card comes back inline for you only: give the person the link and never say an image is shown. In apps that params: city, signal_id* |
city_cameras | Road cameras within a radius of a latitude and longitude (default 1 mile, max 5), nearest first, each with a link to its current still and whether it has live video; plus the camera checks CitySignal ran on alerts there in the last N hours (default 24, max 72): what the camera showed and whether it matched the alert. CitySignal does not record video, so footage of a past moment exists only as a ch params: city, lat*, lon*, radius_mi, hours, limit |
city_pictures | Up to six CitySignal picture cards for incidents in a city, including ones that already cleared: the frame a camera check kept, or a live view while the incident is still going. Each card has a headline, time, city, and a Cleared / Earlier today tag when it's over. Incidents with no picture are left out.
Images in this tool's result are visible to the assistant only, not to the person. To show a params: city, hours |
get_profile | The connected CitySignal account: a stable opaque id and display name. Call this to confirm which account is linked before reading personal tools. params: none |
my_day | The connected person's own Now / Ongoing / Ahead / Recap: live signals that touch their saved spots and routes, in the same buckets the app shows, plus today's calendar line. Use for 'anything I should know today', 'what's near my places', 'is my area affected'. Needs a connected account. params: none |
my_brief | Today's written brief for the connected person: top alerts, citywide items, what is near their spots with why it matters and a recommended action, events, what is ongoing, what came and went since the last brief. Use when they ask for their briefing or a summary of their day. Needs a connected account. params: none |
my_routes_now | Each of the connected person's saved routes with its current state (Clear, Minor delay, Expect delays, Consider another route) and what changes how the road drives on its corridor now and ahead: crashes, lane closures, roadwork, weather over the route's counties, and event crowds around the trip time. Power, water and other at-a-place notices are NOT route delays; they belong to the person's spots params: none |
my_along_the_way | Errands on the connected person's list that fit a trip they already make today, with the store, the detour in minutes, why that store, and a price line when one is known. Use for 'what can I pick up on the way', 'any errands I can do today'. Needs a connected account. params: none |
my_list | The connected person's shopping list as Scout priced it at their home Kroger: each item with product, size, price and whether it is on sale, plus the running total. Non-private lists include a revocable share link that expires after seven days. Use for 'what's on my list', 'how much will groceries be', 'is anything on sale'. Needs a connected account. params: none |
my_spots_and_routes | The connected person's saved spots (name, kind, part of town, alert radius) and routes (name, from, to, schedule). Use to understand what 'home', 'work' or 'my commute' refer to before answering about them. Addresses are not included. Needs a connected account. params: none |
add_errand | Adds one errand to the connected person's own list, in their words ('milk and eggs', 'pick up lotion at the pharmacy'), the way the app, Siri and a text to Scout do: Scout reads the store kind from the words and fits the errand into a drive they already make. Optional 'by': a day word (today, tomorrow, Friday) or a date (YYYY-MM-DD). Returns the item as the list shows it, a confirmation line, and params: text*, by |
save_spot | Saves a spot (a place that matters to the connected person, where Scout looks out for them) at an address they typed, with a kind: home, work, school, church, gym or other, and an optional name. The address must resolve to one confident, house-level match in their home city; when it does not, nothing is saved and the result lists the top suggestions with their lat and lon. Then ask the person whic params: address*, kind*, name, lat, lon |
my_detours | Scout's detour offers on the connected person's drives today, as the Scout page shows them: the streak line (how many drives or weeks straight home), the offer (worth it: an event they marked interest in, near a drive, as a stop; dodge it: a big crowd a drive passes, with the way around), the DETOUR-XXX code and what the code opens. The route's own state never changes because of an event. Use for params: none |
get_detour | Resolves a DETOUR-XXX code for the connected person: which drive it is on, the event, whether it is worth it (a stop) or dodge it (a way around), the streak and offer lines, and the link that opens it. Codes are per person and per day; a code that has passed says so. Use when the person says or pastes a code. Needs a connected account. params: code* |
circle_needs | Open errands and list items of people in the connected person's Circle, for people who turned on assistant access for them, with how long each has waited and whether it was already asked of or accepted by the connected person. When an errand lists what it is for, 'items' names them (a 'Groceries' errand with items oat milk, eggs, paper towels): name those items in the answer. An empty 'items' mean params: person, category |
circle_along_the_way | Trips people in the connected person's Circle already plan today or tomorrow that fit an errand: a store run someone's item could ride along on, a return or post office stop, a trip they both make. Returns the person's first name, the trip label, an approximate time only if they share times, the kind of store, and which of the connected person's items could ride along. Never a location. Use for 'i params: category, day |
