Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
alphaportal_list_studentsA

List the students (children) on the signed-in account, with grade, school, and transportation flags. Start here to get each studentId.

alphaportal_get_studentA

Get a student's full transportation detail: assigned school plus morning and afternoon stops with times and calendars.

alphaportal_get_student_stopsA

Get a student's assigned bus stops — stop name, scheduled time, days of the week, and stop location (lat/lng) for each.

alphaportal_get_bus_locationA

Get the live GPS location of a student's bus for the selected run (AM or PM): latitude, longitude, speed, and the vehicle id. Returns the last known position; empty when the bus is not currently running.

alphaportal_get_report_linkA

Get a one-time PDF download link for a student's transportation report (stops, schedule). Returns a URL to open in a browser.

alphaportal_list_notificationsA

List the account's transportation notifications — arrival/departure alerts (e.g. "arrived at school") with title, body, the student, and timestamp.

alphaportal_get_profileA

Get the signed-in user profile (name, email, role, account).

alphaportal_get_accountA

Get the account (school district) info — name, timezone, date/phone formats — and the current server date.

alphaportal_get_settingsA

Get the portal feature/visibility settings (which notification types and features are enabled for this district).

alphaportal_list_schoolsA

List all schools in the district with names and coordinates (lat/lng). Useful for resolving a school by name.

alphaportal_list_gradesA

List the district grade levels (id + name).

alphaportal_list_requestsA

List the transportation requests submitted on this account, with tracking numbers and status.

alphaportal_edit_walk_radiusA

Set a student's walk-zone radius, in meters. This can affect transportation eligibility, so it is confirm-gated: without confirm:true it returns a dry-run of the exact payload. Verified required fields: studentId, radius.

alphaportal_set_notificationA

Set a student's transportation notification preferences (push/email, per AM/PM run) across the categories the district enables: stopRadiusEntry, studentScan, backupBus, schoolArrival, stopServiced. Confirm-gated: without confirm:true it returns a dry-run of the exact payload. NOTE: the portal sends the whole preference set at once; categories you omit may be left unchanged or reset by the server — review the dry-run first.

alphaportal_session_statusA

Check whether the server can authenticate to AlphaPortal: it resolves the refresh token (from ALPHAPORTAL_REFRESH_TOKEN, the saved session, or a signed-in browser tab via the bridge) and tries to mint an access token. Returns no credentials.
