Tool reference
Explore the public tools advertised by the network and its rooftops. Generated from the network manifest on 2026-11-07 (spec v2).
Network surface (/mcp)
network_directoryDirectory of active ADN rooftops: slug, name, dealer group, OEM programs, location metadata, and per-rooftop manifest URL. Pass country=CA for Canadian dealers.
Access: No credential required
Availability: every rooftop.
network_searchBrowse available inventory across the network, one page at a time. For counts or distributions call inventory_stats; to copy the catalog call network_snapshot (one download replaces hundreds of pages). Results are slim summary rows; embed hero_photo_url as a markdown image when presenting a vehicle, and call inventory_get with rooftop_slug for its full photo gallery. Optional OEM program scope; optional geographic radius — latitude and longitude together; radius_miles defaults to 50 (max 500) and needs both. Rooftops without coordinates are excluded from geo-scoped results. Pass country=CA for Canadian dealers. Listed prices may exclude doc/government fees and tax — call quote_preview for the estimated total. Totals are estimates at best; when pricing_coverage is "partial_estimate", present the total as a subtotal excluding the charges in excluded. Always relay pricing_disclosure.
Access: No credential required
Availability: every rooftop.
inventory_statsAggregate available inventory across the network in ONE call: counts, effective-price min/median/max and the top values per facet. Example: {"dimensions": ["make_model", "body_style"], "condition": "used", "rooftop_slugs": ["mms"]}. Geo (latitude and longitude, optional radius_miles) and oem_program_slug scope exactly as network_search. Pivot mode (group_by, up to 2 of the facets plus state, dealer_group, price_band, age_band) returns one row per group with count and medians; dimensions and group_by are mutually exclusive; format csv returns the rows as CSV. Pass country=CA for Canadian dealers.
Access: No credential required
Availability: every rooftop.
inventory_getFetch one available unit by identity (VIN) from a named rooftop (rooftop_slug from network_search results). Returns the full detail shape — ordered photo gallery, options, plain-text description; embed the first few photo_urls as markdown images when presenting the vehicle. Unknown or ineligible identity/rooftop returns unit_not_found. Listed prices may exclude doc/government fees and tax — call quote_preview for the estimated total. Totals are estimates at best; when pricing_coverage is "partial_estimate", present the total as a subtotal excluding the charges in excluded. Always relay pricing_disclosure.
Access: No credential required
Availability: every rooftop.
network_snapshotExport the whole network catalog (or one rooftop with rooftop_slug) as one gzip artifact instead of paging: returns a descriptor with a generation URL, strong ETag, row and byte counts, expiry and (when available) sync_cursor; small results are inlined as rows_inline. Views: manifest (identity, pricing, key attributes; default), summary (the network_search row), full (the inventory_get row). Formats: csv (default), json. Example: {"view": "manifest", "format": "csv"}. Re-download only when the ETag changes; poll inventory_changes with sync_cursor to stay current. Pass country=CA for Canadian dealers.
Access: No credential required
Availability: every rooftop.
inventory_changesState synchronization for a mirror built from network_snapshot: pass the sync_cursor and receive upserts (current rows in the same view) and tombstones since that position, with has_more and next_cursor. Bounded eventual consistency: take a fresh snapshot at least every 24 hours and whenever resync_required is true. Example: {"cursor": "<sync_cursor from network_snapshot>"}. Pass country=CA for Canadian dealers.
Access: No credential required
Availability: every rooftop.
inventory_comparablesPrice context for one vehicle against like units across the network (same make, model, exact model year, condition; optional trim and geo). Example: {"identity": "<VIN>", "rooftop_slug": "mms"} or {"make": "Subaru", "model": "Outback", "model_year": 2024, "condition": "used"}. Returns count, price quartiles, the subject's rank and up to 5 cheapest peers. Advertised prices only; call quote_preview for a total. Pass country=CA for Canadian dealers.
Access: No credential required
Availability: every rooftop.
storesOne named rooftop's store record: name, dealer group, OEM programs, location/contact metadata, and fee schedule. Pass rooftop_slug. Whether a specific unit's listed price already includes a fee varies per unit — quote_preview returns the estimated total. Fee schedules may be incomplete — an unlisted fee is not a guarantee that no such fee applies; confirm final charges with the dealer.
Access: No credential required
Availability: every rooftop.
quote_previewRead-only out-the-door price preview for one available unit at a named rooftop (pass rooftop_slug): base price plus itemized fees and taxes — fees already included in the listed price are flagged included_in_price and add nothing on top. Persists nothing; free to call while browsing. Fee schedules may be incomplete — an unlisted fee is not a guarantee that no such fee applies; confirm final charges with the dealer. Totals are estimates at best; when pricing_coverage is "partial_estimate", present the total as a subtotal excluding the charges in excluded. Always relay pricing_disclosure.
Access: No credential required
Availability: every rooftop.
deal_quoteOut-the-door quote for one available unit at a named rooftop. Anonymous calls are stateless; authenticated calls persist a deal thread. Anonymous calls persist nothing; quote_preview is the read-only equivalent for browsing. Fee schedules may be incomplete — an unlisted fee is not a guarantee that no such fee applies; confirm final charges with the dealer. Totals are estimates at best; when pricing_coverage is "partial_estimate", present the total as a subtotal excluding the charges in excluded. Always relay pricing_disclosure.
