Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| aboutA | Show information about this MCP server: name, version, coverage, data sources, license, and provenance. Always available. (via local-dfw-mcp) |
| dfw_healthA | Diagnostic. Pings every upstream data provider this MCP depends on (Dallas Open Data, data.texas.gov, FEMA NFHL, PUC CCN, Dallas GIS, Census, NWS) in parallel with a 3.5s timeout and reports per-source status, HTTP code, and latency. Use when many tools return errors to tell which provider is down vs which tool is broken. |
| dfw_311A | City of Dallas only (v0.1). Search Dallas 311 service requests by address and/or type. Types use the city's official names -- potholes are "street repair"; also "illegal dumping", "animal loose", "parking", "noise". Returns request number, type, department, status, dates, and council district. Use for neighborhood quality-of-life research. Authoritative source: City of Dallas Open Data. |
| dfw_crimeA | City of Dallas only (v0.1). Search Dallas Police incidents by (block-level) address and/or offense type. Returns incident number, offense, date, premise, division/sector/beat, and status. Addresses are block-level (privacy-rounded upstream). NOT a consumer report — do not use for tenant, employment, or other FCRA-regulated screening. Source: Dallas Police Department Open Data. |
| dfw_fema_floodA | Look up the FEMA flood zone for a DFW address. Returns the zone code (A, AE, X, V, VE, etc.), Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) status, base flood elevation, and a plain-English risk + insurance interpretation (Zone A/AE/V require federal flood insurance). Source: FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer (NFHL). Geocodes via U.S. Census. |
| dfw_tea_schoolsA | Texas public schools + TEA A-F accountability ratings (latest published: 2022-2023). Search by campus name, district, or county (e.g. DALLAS, TARRANT, COLLIN, DENTON). Returns overall rating, sub-scores (Student Achievement, School Progress, Closing the Gaps), enrollment, and demographics. Does NOT map an address to its assigned schools — attendance zones are managed by individual ISDs. Source: Texas Education Agency. |
| dfw_nws_alertsA | Active National Weather Service alerts (severe thunderstorm, tornado, flood, heat, freeze, fire weather) for a DFW location. Defaults to downtown Dallas when no address is supplied. Returns severity, urgency, headline, area, and expiration for each active alert covering the point. Source: National Weather Service (api.weather.gov). |
| dfw_utility_providersA | Find the WATER and SEWER (wastewater) utility obligated to serve a DFW address — the 'who turns on my water' question. DFW is a patchwork of cities, MUDs/WCIDs, water-supply corporations, and private utilities. Returns the certificated (CCN) provider for the exact point. Source: Texas PUC Certificate of Convenience and Necessity boundaries. Covers all of Texas. Does NOT start service — it tells you who to contact. |
| dfw_district_lookupA | Given a DFW street address, returns the districts/jurisdictions it falls in: county (all 4 core counties), City of Dallas council district + council member (City of Dallas only), whether it is inside City of Dallas limits, and school district (ISD). Pipeline: U.S. Census geocoder → point-in-polygon against Dallas GIS and statewide Texas ArcGIS layers. |
