v2026.10.1 — what a scheduled brief needs
The machine surface gains what an assistant running a daily or weekly brief needs to find what is new without guessing search words or diffing sheets (PR #43).
recent_activity(new MCP tool): what arrived in a window, across every proceeding or a list of dockets the caller passes (never kept). By default it is windowed on when the forward watch observed each record, so late postings are not missed;by: board_dateuses the Board's own dates instead. Filters: prefix, prefixes to leave out, record type, the Board's type, words in the Filed For cell as printed, and deciding body. Outages inside the window are named. A window spans at most 366 days.count_decisions(new MCP tool): counts by prefix, served dates, decision type and deciding body.list_proceedings(new MCP tool, from 2026-09-18): the proceedings behind acount_filingscount.search_the_recordtakes filters (prefix, prefixes or dockets to leave out, a date range, record type, Board type, sort, page) and returns one list with a total; with no filters, the answer is unchanged.get_docket_sheettakes a range on the Board's dates.- /coverage and the
coveragetool now say that the Board's activity outside its dockets (voting conferences, hearings as events, press releases, Federal Register notices) is not held. - Pages: prose pages get section headings; the home page's week figures and /dockets' figures are sentences, not stat rows; a sheet's type filters sit behind a disclosure ordered by count; the subscribe field has its border back.
