Rotv MCP Server

Returns top-N Romanian TV programs ranked for a given mood (obosit/vesel/concentrat/romantic/familie/captivant — RO/EN aliases accepted). Combines: channel category, mood-fit (genre + duration + keywords), time proximity, and streaming cross-reference. Output includes mood_parts breakdown and freshness embedded.

Returns up to N ranked program recommendations for a given timeframe. Uses a deterministic scorer that rewards films / documentaries / generalist channels, penalises news, boosts programs starting within the next hour, and, between items with equal score, puts first the one whose IMDb rating (as declared by the TV guide) is higher relative to its category median (rating_signal; the rating never changes the score). Items with equal score carry tie_break saying what decided their order. Use for queries like "recommend me something for tonight", "ce e bun la TV diseară".

Compares 2-5 program titles by scoring each against the chosen mood, finding the next TV airing (next 48h by default) and looking each up in the streaming catalog. Returns side-by-side breakdown and a winner with reasoning.

You have a window of free time — decide for me what to watch right now. Returns ONE primary decision (TV program OR streaming title) with confidence percentage, plus best_by_source when both TV and streaming were considered (the best TV airing in the window next to the best catalog title — present both to the user when gap_pct is small, since streaming is available any time and TV only now), full reasoning breakdown, and up to 3 diverse alternatives with explicit trade-offs (pros/cons, reason not picked). Picks across live Romanian TV EPG AND streaming catalog (Netflix, HBO Max, Disney+, Prime Video). Built-in anti-noise filter automatically removes news, political talk, reality shows, talk-shows (NO manual filtering needed by the model). Built-in title dedup (repeat airings of the same title are collapsed to one candidate). Built-in opportunity-cost lookahead (flags better options just outside the window). Event-aware: major broadcasts (World Cup / Euro / Champions League / finals) get an importance boost in ranking AND are always listed in the important_today field, even when the mood-based pick is something else — for questions like "what is important today?", prefer tv_important_today. PREFER THIS TOOL over tv_recommend_by_mood and tv_recommend_today whenever the user wants ONE answer / a single decision — those tools return ranked LISTS for browsing, this tool returns a DECISION. It returns exactly ONE pick and leaves the rest of the window as a pause: when the user wants the whole window FILLED with several programmes in sequence ("plan my evening", "ce văd toată seara", "fă-mi un program pentru 20–24", a TV window of 3+ hours), use tv_plan_evening instead. Routes any mood internally (obosit / vesel / concentrat / romantic / familie / captivant + EN aliases tired/happy/focused/romantic/family/thrilling). Trigger phrases: "what should I do", "decide for me", "pick for me", "I have X hours", "ce să fac", "am 2 ore", "alege tu", "mood X durată Y", "o singură decizie", "fii consilierul meu", "what to watch", "concierge me".

Returns a full score breakdown for a specific program in a given mood/context: per-component value + reason, extracted genres, streaming cross-ref, freshness, sources used, and a list of alternatives that were not picked (with the specific reason each was dropped). Use to understand or debug a recommendation.

Finds TV programs that satisfy two people with different moods/preferences. Default fairness=strict (min(scoreA,scoreB) >= threshold — no veto). If strict returns nothing it falls back in two declared steps: first fairness=average at the SAME min_score; only if that is still empty is min_score halved. The response always carries requested_fairness, requested_min_score, the effective fairness / min_score, threshold_relaxed and degraded — tell the user when their threshold was relaxed. Returns per-person score breakdown + compromise note when one side wins by >1.5 points.

Reports the last-updated time of each underlying data source (EPG normalized, EPG homepage, streaming catalog), the age in minutes, the expected next refresh, and whether any source is stale (older than 1.5× the expected refresh interval).

What actually matters on Romanian TV today: World Cup / Euro / Champions League matches, finals, knockout games, national-team fixtures, named club derbies (tier 1) and matches between two listed top clubs (UEFA 5-year ranking top 40, Liga I champions in SuperLiga; tier 2). Detected from real EPG text (titles + descriptions) with quoted evidence — the EPG has no structured event metadata, so detection is keyword-based and honest about it. Each event carries live_status (live / replay / unknown) with the evidence it was derived from; unknown means the EPG does not say whether the broadcast is live. Use this FIRST for questions like "what's important to watch today?".

Returns the programs currently broadcasting on Romanian TV channels. Use this for "What is on TV now?" type questions. Default scope is the main channels; pass scope="all" for every channel in the guide.

Builds a TV watching plan for a window of time — either one long programme or 2-3 consecutive programmes with small gaps, ordered as a timeline. Relevance comes before coverage: only programmes scoring at least max(2, 60% of the best score in the window) are used, the same anti-noise filter as tv_concierge applies (reality / talk-show / politics / news, configurable), and uncovered minutes are reported in totals.unfilled_min + unfilled_reason, with totals.unfilled_gaps giving each gap and its actual cause (start of window before the first programme, pause between programmes, end-of-window remainder below the 30-min minimum slot, max_segments reached, or nothing above the relevance floor fitting) instead of being filled; segments running past the window carry overflow_min. Use it when the user wants a schedule for the whole evening or a long window (3+ hours) rather than a single pick: "plan my evening", "ce văd toată seara", "fă-mi un program pentru 20–24". TV only (live Romanian EPG, no streaming titles); for ONE decision that may also be a streaming title, use tv_concierge. Accepts start time, duration budget, mood, and channel preferences. Output: ordered timeline + alternatives dropped + totals.

Returns the prime-time lineup (20:00–23:00 Europe/Bucharest) for a given date, grouped by channel. Use for queries like "what is on prime time tonight" or "tomorrow night TV". By default, news channels are excluded.

Search programs across all Romanian TV channels in the guide by free-text title, channel, category, and time window. Use for queries like "documentaries on Discovery tomorrow", "football on Saturday", "what is on Antena 1 right now". Time references accepted: now, tonight, tomorrow, weekend, primetime, today, YYYY-MM-DD, ISO instant, or ISO range "A/B".

Looks up a title across upcoming Romanian TV airings (next N hours, default 48) and the live streaming catalog for Romania (Netflix, HBO Max, Prime Video, Disney+). Use for queries like "is Avatar on Netflix?", "when does Game of Thrones air next?".

The daily "what is worth watching tonight?" card: one main decision (importance-scored major event, or a deterministic prime-time film fallback) plus one pick per vertical — TV, streaming (official Netflix RO top 10), theater (a stage performance happening TODAY, else an online play; a future date only when nothing is on tonight, labelled as the next performance), cinema (box office ∩ today's real screenings, else one of today's most-screened films) — and measured stats. Same data as the tv.madeinro.eu homepage hero, regenerated at every EPG refresh. `date_is_today` compares `date` with the current calendar date in Romania: false means the card still carries the previous day's picks (not regenerated since local midnight); freshness.stale is then true and freshness.warning says so. In MCP Apps-capable hosts this renders as an interactive card (ui://rotv/tonight-card).
