Ph Civic Data MCP vs Uap Pulse

get_active_typhoons

Get active tropical cyclones in/near the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR). Returns empty list if none active. If the PAGASA bulletin page is unreachable, returns {results: [], upstream_error: true, caveats} instead, so an outage is never read as "no active typhoons".

get_weather_alerts

Get active PAGASA weather alerts and advisories. The PAGASA homepage embeds alert names ("Heavy Rainfall Warning", "Flood Advisory") in its navigation menu and breadcrumbs as well as in actual active-warning sections. We can reliably detect the "No Active Warnings" state but cannot yet isolate active warnings from chrome text. To avoid fabricated advisories, this tool returns `[]` with a caveat when the page is reachable but the state is ambiguous, and `[]` with the explicit "no active warnings" signal when the homepage says so. For real-time advisories, call `bagong.pagasa.dost.gov.ph` directly.

search_procurement

Search PH government procurement from PhilGEPS open data. Note: the PhilGEPS public portal does not expose server-side search for external clients, so this tool fetches the latest ~100 bid notices and filters them in-memory. Data is cached 6 hours. Keyword/agency/region filters are applied client-side (case-insensitive substring match).

get_procurement_summary

Aggregate procurement statistics over the latest notices cached from PhilGEPS.

get_population_stats

Philippine population from PSA OpenSTAT (2020 Census).

get_poverty_stats

Poverty incidence from PSA (latest: 2023 Full-Year).

get_inflation_stats

Headline consumer-price inflation (year-on-year, all items) from PSA. Source: PSA OpenSTAT Consumer Price Index, 2018-based. The tool discovers the current CPI series by text (never a hardcoded table id) and returns the most recently published month's year-on-year change. Reports the exact reference period — PSA publishes with a lag, so this is the latest available figure, not necessarily the current month.
