## MCP tools (3)

### `search_committee_documents` (~342 tokens)

Find documents published by a congressional committee on its own website — press releases, oversight letters, staff reports, released interview transcripts, investigation files and hearing material. Covers the House Oversight Committee and the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee (HSGAC). Use for "what has House Oversight said about X", "the Oversight Committee letter to Y", "HSGAC investigation into Z", "transcripts the committee released". This material appears within hours, unlike the official printed record which lags by months (use search_congressional_documents for that). IMPORTANT: matches the document headline/slug, not the text inside documents or their PDF attachments — an empty result means no headline matched rather than that the subject is absent.

Input parameters:

- `committee` (string): Which committee: "house-oversight", "hsgac", or "all" (default). Also accepts loose names like "oversight" or "homeland security".
- `doc_type` (string): What to search: "releases", "letters", "reports", "hearings", "markups", "documents" (attached files), "investigations", or "all". Omit for each committee's sensible default. Not every committee publ…
- `limit` (number): Results to return (default 20, max 100)
- `query` (string): Keywords matched against document headlines, all of which must appear, e.g. "subpoena FBI". Omit to list the most recent documents.
- `since` (string): Only documents updated on or after this date, YYYY-MM-DD

### `get_committee_document` (~108 tokens)

Read a committee document page: its headline, publication date, the text the committee published, and the attached documents (usually PDFs — letters, transcripts, reports) with URLs and sizes. Pass a url from search_committee_documents. Note that PDF text is NOT extracted — attachments are returned as links, so quote the page text and cite the attachment URL rather than claiming to have read the PDF.

Input parameters:

- `url` (string, required): Full committee document URL, as returned by search_committee_documents

### `list_committee_document_types` (~50 tokens)

List the congressional committees covered here, which document types each one publishes on its website, and what this source does and does not cover. Call when unsure which committee or doc_type answers a question.
