Claude Code: ask. ### `tv_check_freshness` - Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write. - The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text 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). ``` ### `tv_concierge` - Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write. - The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class. - Findings: info long-description Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text 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, Apple TV+, SkyShowtime). 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 (handles ~46% duplicate-airing ratio in TV EPG). 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". ``` ### `tv_important_today` - Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write. - The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text What actually matters on Romanian TV today: World Cup / Euro / Champions League matches, finals, knockout games, national-team fixtures. 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?". ``` ### `tv_plan_evening` - Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write. - The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Builds a TV watching plan that FILLS a window of time — either one long programme or 2-3 consecutive programmes with small gaps, ordered as a timeline. 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. ``` ### `tv_tonight_card` - Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write. - The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text 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 daily. In MCP Apps-capable hosts this renders as an interactive card (ui://rotv/tonight-card). ``` ## Only reads (9) Looks things up and changes nothing. Claude Code: allow. ### `tv_compare_options` - The name "tv_compare_options" says "compare": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text 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. ``` ### `tv_explain_recommendation` - The name "tv_explain_recommendation" says "explain": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text 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. ``` ### `tv_find_for_couple` - The name "tv_find_for_couple" says "find": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text 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. ``` ### `tv_get_prime_time` - The name "tv_get_prime_time" says "get": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text 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. ``` ### `tv_get_title_details` - The name "tv_get_title_details" says "get": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text 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+, Apple TV+). Use for queries like "is Avatar on Netflix?", "when does Game of Thrones air next?". ``` ### `tv_now_on_tv` - The description's first verb is "return": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text 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. ``` ### `tv_recommend_by_mood` - The description's first verb is "return": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text 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. ``` ### `tv_recommend_today` - The description's first verb is "return": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Returns up to N ranked program recommendations for a given timeframe. Uses a deterministic scorer that rewards films / documentaries / generalist channels, penalises news, and boosts programs starting within the next hour. Use for queries like "recommend me something for tonight", "ce e bun la TV diseară". ``` ### `tv_search_program` - The name "tv_search_program" says "search": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text 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". ``` ## Claude Code permissions For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `rotv`: ```json { "permissions": { "allow": [ "mcp__rotv__tv_now_on_tv", "mcp__rotv__tv_search_program", "mcp__rotv__tv_get_prime_time", "mcp__rotv__tv_recommend_today", "mcp__rotv__tv_get_title_details", "mcp__rotv__tv_recommend_by_mood", "mcp__rotv__tv_compare_options", "mcp__rotv__tv_find_for_couple", "mcp__rotv__tv_explain_recommendation" ], "ask": [ "mcp__rotv__tv_plan_evening", "mcp__rotv__tv_check_freshness", "mcp__rotv__tv_concierge", "mcp__rotv__tv_important_today", "mcp__rotv__tv_tonight_card" ], "deny": [] } } ```
