Search vector store MCP response
MCP tool response returned by the Search vector store MCP tool.
- Returned by: Search vector store MCP tool
- Response type: Text report
Response Shape
The tool returns a text report. It does not return a reusable GovTribe record row.
Successful searches use this pattern:
| Part | Text pattern | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Header | Found {count} result(s) for: "{query}" | Returned when the vector store has at least one match. |
| Result heading | ### Result {rank} — {filename} (relevance: {score}%) | Returned once for each matching file. |
| Attributes | Attributes: {key}: {value}, ... | Included only when the matched file has attributes. |
| Content | Matched text chunks | One or more extracted text chunks from the matching file. |
| More results | Additional results available. | Included when the vector store reports additional available results. |
If the completed vector store has no matches, the response is No results found for: "{query}".
If the vector store is not ready, the response is Vector store {id} is still {status}. Search results are not ready yet. Retry Search_Vector_Store later, or call Add_To_Vector_Store again with the same arguments to check readiness.
Follow-up Behavior
When the response says search results are not ready yet, retry Search_Vector_Store later or call Add_To_Vector_Store again with identical arguments to check readiness.
