search_bearing_catalog
Retrieve bearing geometry from a verified catalog when a manual names a bearing but lacks dimensions. If not found, it signals a miss so you can request the geometry from the user.
Instructions
Search for bearing specifications in the local verified catalog.
Fallback for when the machine manual names a bearing but not its
geometry. The catalog is small BY DESIGN: only entries whose
geometry is traceable to a public source (mandatory `source`
citation). A miss is a legitimate negative outcome — ask the user
for the geometry; never guess it.
Args:
bearing_id: Bearing designation (e.g. "6205", "SKF 6205-2RS")
ctx: MCP context. Unused — see this module's docstring on logging.
Returns:
Dictionary with bearing specifications if found, or a
BearingCatalogMiss (status='not_found', suggestion,
catalog_contains) when the bearing is not in the catalog.
Raises:
Exception: If the catalog itself cannot be read (missing or
malformed common_bearings_catalog.json).
