    Why it is in this group

    • The name "entity_lookup" says "lookup": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Find TCLP content (clauses, glossary terms, guides) associated with a named concept. Unlike `search`, this performs a deterministic name match against Entity nodes in the knowledge graph rather than a relevance-ranked semantic search. Use it when you have a specific term or concept (e.g. "scope 3 emissions", "net zero") and want to retrieve every clause or glossary entry that explicitly references it. Args: name: The entity or concept name to look up (exact match, case-insensitive). limit: Maximum number of results to return (1–50). include_full_text: Include each hit's full body text (Markdown). Off by default — bodies are large; request only when you need the content, and prefer a small `limit` when you do. Returns: JSON with "meta" and "results" where each hit includes the source content node, its plain-text `summary` (null when it has none) and the entity names that matched. Each hit's "references" lists the instruments it cites: pass a reference's `work_id` to `get_legal_resource` for details. A reference's `edge` (governs, references, describes) says how the content relates to the instrument; it is not a statement of the instrument's legal effect. An empty list means the hit cites no instruments. null with "lrsf" in meta.degraded means references could not be loaded: do not conclude that the hit cites no instruments.

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "list": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    List TCLP content (clauses, guides) or legal resources filtered by taxonomy facet=value. Multi-facet filters are combined with AND. Call `taxonomy_facets` first to learn which facet names and slugs exist; using a name not in that list returns a 400. Args: filters: Mapping of facet name to value slug, e.g. `{"sector": "real-estate", "practice_area": "commercial"}`. Each facet may appear at most once. scope: `clause` (ClauseName only), `guide` (Guide only), `legal_resource` (laws, regulations, standards and frameworks; facets `jurisdiction` and `sector` only), or `all` (clauses and guides, the default). limit: Maximum results to return (1–100, default 25). offset: Result offset for paging (default 0). sort: `title`, `date_published_desc`, or `date_modified_desc`. Returns: JSON with "meta" (totals, scope, filters echoed back) and "results" (each hit has `id`, `url`, `title`, `content_type`, dates, `summary` (the clause summary or guide excerpt as plain text, null for legal resources), and a `facets` map of all taxonomy arrays on the node). `content_type` is `clause`, `guide` or `legal_resource`, the same values that `search` returns.

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "list": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    List taxonomy facets and their value slugs across TCLP content. Facets are taxonomy categories like `sector`, `practice_area`, `application`, and `jurisdiction`. Each facet returns the list of slugs that actually appear on the graph, with counts. Use this to discover the vocabulary, then call `taxonomy_content` with chosen slugs. Args: scope: Which labels to include — `clause` (ClauseName only), `guide` (Guide only), `legal_resource` (laws, regulations, standards and frameworks; facets `jurisdiction` and `sector` only), or `all` (clauses and guides, the default). Returns: JSON with "meta" and "facets". Each facet has `name`, `applies_to` (list of Neo4j labels carrying it), and `values` (list of `{slug, count}`, sorted by count desc).

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
