OpenSky, the default civil feed, reports no operator, so group_by: operator
said "no operator reported". aircraft_in_area now also takes
group_by: 'airline', read from the ICAO designator in each callsign: three
letters followed by a flight number that starts with a digit (SWA1234,
UAL12A). Registrations used as callsigns (N123AB) count as unknown. Rows are
unchanged; the designator is derived for the breakdown only.
Live, Texas: "785 aircraft ...; most by airline: AAL (89), SWA (65), UAL (52);
283 unknown."

isoTime returned toISOString() for any finite number, which throws past ±8.64e15 ms, so one bad record (e.g. a bike-share last_reported) failed the whole tool answer. Such timestamps are now null. The voice analyst's result rows had the same conversion and get the same guard.

OpenSky, the default civil feed, reports no operator or type code, so a
breakdown by either put every aircraft under unknown while the summary said
nothing. The summary now says "no operator reported" in that case, and
otherwise appends the unknown count after the largest groups.

aircraft_in_area and vessels_in_area return at most 200 rows, so a client
asked which operators dominate an area, or the average altitude there, could
only estimate from a truncated sample. Both tools now take an optional
group_by (aircraft: operator, origin_country, type_code; ships: type,
destination) and stats (airborne altitude and speed for aircraft, speed for
ships). Each is computed over every match before rows are capped. Breakdowns
list the ten largest groups plus other and unknown counts, and the summary
names the three largest.

Add get_weather_map, which returns the latest NOAA radar, satellite or
lightning map over an area as an image, choosing a window the image
route accepts and reporting areas outside the product's coverage, and
get_wind, which samples GFS or IFS wind at a location with the wind
layer's own grid sampling.
Add search_places and places_nearby over the app's Google Places routes,
and plan_route over its OpenStreetMap routing. The place search service
reports when no search key is configured, so an unconfigured server is
not mistaken for an empty result, and rate limits become retry_later.
Route endpoints accept a place name or coordinates.
Define tools that answer questions from the app's data once, independent
of the surface that exposes them. A tool declares its arguments and the
services it reads; applications compose tools with their own services and
optional call interceptors. Queries reuse the layers' portable source
factories, so they run wherever an application routes /api requests.
The first queries are get_earthquakes, get_active_fires and
get_recent_launches, with a shared area argument (place name, bounding
box, or point and radius) and capped lists.
gods-eye-view/tools/mcp adapts a catalog to the Model Context Protocol
with a small JSON-RPC handler and a stateless HTTP transport, adding no
dependencies. npm run mcp serves Core's tools over stdio to local clients
such as Claude Code, reading from a running app. Both exports are
portable and checked by check:boundaries; the app does not import them.
