5 toolsget_companyGet one companyRead-onlyIdempotentInspect
A company as context for its programs: what it does, HQ, founding, status/listing, valuation and staff (with dates and provenance), its programs with stage and next milestone, technical approach, open problems, people, recent funding, partners, and its latest news.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| company | Yes | Company slug, e.g. 'spacex', 'figure' (from search) |
get_frontierSurvey a frontierRead-onlyIdempotentInspect
Survey a whole area of technology: the frontier's fields (with a one-line explainer each) and their programs sorted by importance, with stage and next milestone. Without frontier it lists every frontier with its slug. Use field to narrow to one field (slugs come back in the result).
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| field | No | Optional field slug within the frontier, e.g. 'geothermal' | |
| frontier | No | Frontier slug, e.g. 'energy', 'robotics', 'space', 'ai'. Omit to list all frontiers. | |
| perField | No | Programs per field (default 4, max 10; default 15, max 25 when a field is given) |
get_programGet one programRead-onlyIdempotentInspect
Everything known about one technology program: goal, development stage, current status, next milestone and slips, milestone history, current obstacles, physics limits, how it works, key specs, upcoming events and its most important dated news with source links. Identify it by frontier + program slugs (from its URL //, or from search), or by company + program.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| company | No | Company slug, e.g. 'spacex' (alternative to frontier) | |
| program | Yes | Program slug, e.g. 'starship', 'figure-03' | |
| frontier | No | Frontier slug, e.g. 'space', 'robotics' (from search results or the page URL) |
latest_updatesLatest newsRead-onlyIdempotentInspect
Recent dated news (tests, launches, funding, delays, papers) with a short summary, the story page and the original source URL. Optionally filter by frontier, company, or program (program needs company or frontier). sort: top ranks by importance instead of recency.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| sort | No | latest (default) or top (most important first) | |
| limit | No | Max items (default 10, max 20) | |
| window | No | Time window (default month) | |
| company | No | Company slug, e.g. 'spacex' | |
| program | No | Program slug (with company or frontier) | |
| frontier | No | Frontier slug, e.g. 'energy' |
searchSearch programs, companies and frontiersRead-onlyIdempotentInspect
Find technology programs (e.g. Starship, Figure 03, a fusion reactor), companies and frontiers by name or keyword. Use this first when you only have a name or topic; it returns the slugs get_program / get_company / get_frontier take, plus page URLs.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | No | Max results per type (default 6) | |
| query | Yes | Name or keywords, e.g. 'starship', 'humanoid robot', 'solid-state battery' |
