Available tools 4

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

browse
browse_business_category
Lists public directory entries in one business category, optionally narrowed to a locality/postcode/canton. Use search_swiss_directory instead for a free-text query.
directory
get_directory_entry
Fetches the full public detail for one directory entry by its entry_id (public_id), including phone numbers, opening hours, and links when the entry has them. Use get_directory_entry for phone numbers and opening hours; use search_swiss_directory or browse_business_category to find an entry_id first.
reverse
reverse_phone_lookup
Looks up the public directory entry (or entries) associated with a Swiss phone number. Accepts national ("079 123 45 67"), E.164 ("+41791234567"), or compact notation. Returns an empty result list when the number has no findable public listing.
swiss
search_swiss_directory
Full-text search over the Swiss public phone/business directory (1820.ch). Matches ALL words in query, so a short keyword works best; put any place name in location, not query. For "business type X in place Y", browse_business_category with a category slug is an alternative. Use get_directory_entry for phone numbers and opening hours of a specific result.
