resolve_jurisdictionUse first when the user names a US address, a point, or a place: returns the jurisdiction chain (state, county, town or township, city, largest first) with jurisdiction_id values, and for each function (assessment, tax_collection, recording, zoning, permits, gis) the government…
find_official_resourceUse when the user needs a specific official page or office for a place: the parcel map, the tax bill page, the assessor, deeds, zoning, permits, septic, flood maps and the other topics. Choose the topic that fits the question. Give exactly one location: jurisdiction_id; address;…
get_place_directoryUse to see everything GovDir lists for one place (a state, county, town, township or city) by jurisdiction_id: the responsible body per function, the place's own offices with contacts, and its own official resources grouped by topic in the order of the topic vocabulary. Each res…

county_parcel_dataUse when the user asks about many parcels in one county: the biggest or smallest parcel, the most valuable, how many parcels are over a size, recent sales, the oldest building, or average lot size. Send the question in plain words with the county or city named, for example "bigg…
