787daily MCP Server

Semantic vector search over 787daily's Puerto Rico news corpus. Returns the most relevant article matches (title, URL, topic, date, score) for a free-text query — without generating an answer. Use this when you want matching articles rather than a synthesized answer; use ask() when you want a grounded narrative answer.

Legacy alias for keyword_search_news. Keyword search over title/summary and optional section; use search_news for semantic/vector search.

The 'Living in <town>' profile for any of Puerto Rico's 78 municipios — housing (median rent, home value, household and per-capita income, ownership, vacancy, poverty, typical build year), work (mean commute, remote-work and transit shares, unemployment, broadband), people (population, density, median age, degrees), mapped services (schools, supermarkets, parks, restaurants, bus stops, beaches per 10,000 residents), the town's AAA water-rationing zones and plan state, and the reported violent-crime rate. Every figure carries the island median and the town's rank among municipios that report it, with sources and vintages (Census ACS 5-Year, OpenStreetMap, PRPD, AAA). Omit `town` for a compact index of all 78.

Current conditions plus a 24-hour hourly forecast AND a 7-day daily outlook for any of Puerto Rico's 78 municipalities, by slug (e.g. 'san-juan', 'ponce', 'rio-grande'). Hourly temperature (°F), wind (mph + direction) and conditions; daily high/low, rain chance and amount, peak wind, UV, sunrise/sunset — from Open-Meteo via 787daily's cached endpoint.

Ask a question about Puerto Rico and get a grounded, cited answer synthesized from 787daily's own news corpus. Returns { answer, sources, refused }. If the question is off-topic or not covered by the corpus the answer is refused cleanly — no outside knowledge is ever used. For raw article matches without generation, use search_news() instead.

Puerto Rico beach water quality: which beaches are under a no-swimming advisory, and the latest Enterococcus bacteria count at each of the ~49 beaches the island monitors under the federal BEACH Act. Returns the beaches named in DRNA's current notice with their municipio and the days the water was sampled, every station's latest count with its sample date and a verdict, how often each beach has been flagged across the notices on record, and the separate volunteer-lab samples (Surfrider Rincón, Arrecifes Pro Ciudad). IMPORTANT — the verdict vocabulary is exactly three states and NEVER the word 'safe': 'advisory' (not suitable for swimming), 'within' (the count was at or under the 70 colonies/100 mL Beach Action Value), and 'stale' (no sample in 21 days — the source's own latest value for a station can be YEARS old, so it is not a verdict either way; check verdict.sampledOn before believing any number). Only DRNA's notice can place a beach under advisory (verdict.basis 'notice'); a count above 70 that no notice covers is reported as verdict.basis 'reading'. Results are published days after sampling and water changes with rain and tide, so never state or imply that a beach is currently safe to swim — report the number, the date, and the advisory state.

List every 787daily Puerto Rico adventure spot with its activities and the CURRENT activity-window verdict (good/fair/marginal/poor, scored from buoy + marine data at the site's last build). Use a spot's key with get_conditions for live numbers.

Live conditions at a Puerto Rico spot from public data (Open-Meteo): wave height/period/direction, sea-surface temp, air temp, and wind. Use list_condition_spots for valid keys.

Puerto Rico cost-of-living figures from the U.S. Census ACS 5-Year Estimates: median gross rent, median household income, and median home value for the island, the US (comparison), and any of the 78 municipios. Vintage-labeled; suppressed small-town estimates are null.

Puerto Rico's ferries right now: the Ceiba–Vieques and Ceiba–Culebra boats (the only way on and off those two islands) and the San Juan–Cataño shuttle. Returns each route's published sailings for today with a posted status (scheduled / cancelled / retimed to <time> / notice posted / past), the next departure each way with how far off it is and when check-in closes, a route state word (On schedule / Changes posted / Suspended), a 30-day record of how many boats were scheduled and how many the operator cancelled or retimed, and the operator's notices in Spanish with an English translation. IMPORTANT: there is no public live vessel tracker for these routes, so nothing here reports a boat actually departing or running late — every status is what Puerto Rico Ferry has PUBLISHED, and the record counts posted changes, not observed lateness.

Puerto Rico's electricity grid right now, from LUMA Energy's public outage portal: how many of the island's ~1.47 million customers are without service, as a count and a share, with LUMA's PLANNED work broken out separately so the unplanned share is readable on its own; a severity word; the seven LUMA regions each with their own count and share; the worst region; and how many municipios are affected. Optionally the daily history (one ~06:00 AST reading per day) behind the weekly Grid Watch. IMPORTANT: these are LUMA's own published figures at the moment of reading, not an independent measurement, and a missing day in the history is a failed read, never a zero. Cite 787daily.com/live/power/ and LUMA Energy.
