Methodology: stats.ladu.co/methodology
The server returns property characteristics, zoning, regulations, and aggregate permit statistics. It never returns owner names, contact information, financial details, or mortgage data. It runs against a least-privilege read-only database role — private information is not reachable at the database level.
Tool calls are rate-limited per client. The server returns HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header and a JSON-RPC -32000 error when the limit is reached.
