Context Cost
This is the approximate number of tokens consumed each time the server's tools are loaded into a model's context. Higher counts reduce the attention available for other tasks.

🟡get_broadband_by_location(latitude, longitude, technology_code, speed_download, speed_upload, ...)
Get broadband providers and availability at a specific lat/lon location. Returns a list of broadband providers serving the location with their advertised download/upload speeds and technology types. Includes BEAD classification (unserved/underserved/served) based on max available speeds. NOTE: The FCC Broadband Map API has bot protection and may reject requests. If you get an error, the API endpoint may have changed. The FCC updates this API frequently without notice. Args: latitude: Location latitude (e.g. 38.8977 for Washington DC). longitude: Location longitude (e.g. -77.0365 for Washington DC). technology_code: Filter by technology (0=All, 10=Copper, 40=Cable, 50=Fiber, 60=Satellite, 70=Fixed Wireless). speed_download: Minimum download speed in Mbps (default 25). speed_upload: Minimum upload speed in Mbps (default 3). as_of_date: BDC filing date in YYYY-MM-DD format (default 2024-06-30).

}🟡get_broadband_summary_by_county(county_fips, speed_download, speed_upload, as_of_date)
Get broadband availability statistics for a county. Returns aggregated broadband data including provider counts, technology availability, and BEAD-relevant metrics (unserved/underserved/served location percentages). NOTE: County-level summary endpoints may not be directly available in all API versions. This tool attempts multiple endpoint patterns. Args: county_fips: 5-digit county FIPS code (e.g. '11001' for Washington DC, '53033' for King County WA). Always a string, never an integer. speed_download: Minimum download speed threshold in Mbps (default 25). speed_upload: Minimum upload speed threshold in Mbps (default 3). as_of_date: BDC filing date in YYYY-MM-DD format (default 2024-06-30).

}🟡get_broadband_summary_by_state(state_fips, speed_download, speed_upload, as_of_date)
Get state-level broadband availability summary. Returns aggregated broadband statistics for the state including provider counts and technology deployment. Useful for BEAD program analysis to identify states with significant unserved/underserved populations. Args: state_fips: 2-digit state FIPS code (e.g. '53' for Washington, '11' for DC). Always a string, never an integer. speed_download: Minimum download speed threshold in Mbps (default 25). speed_upload: Minimum upload speed threshold in Mbps (default 3). as_of_date: BDC filing date in YYYY-MM-DD format (default 2024-06-30).

}🟡get_providers_by_county(county_fips, technology_code, speed_download, speed_upload, as_of_date)
Get list of broadband providers serving a county. Returns provider names, technology types, and speed tiers available in the specified county. Useful for BEAD applications to identify which providers serve an area and what technologies they deploy. Args: county_fips: 5-digit county FIPS code (e.g. '11001' for Washington DC, '53033' for King County WA). Always a string, never an integer. technology_code: Filter by technology (0=All, 10=Copper, 40=Cable, 50=Fiber, 60=Satellite, 70=Fixed Wireless). speed_download: Minimum download speed threshold in Mbps (default 25). speed_upload: Minimum upload speed threshold in Mbps (default 3). as_of_date: BDC filing date in YYYY-MM-DD format (default 2024-06-30).
