MCP servers
Choose the right GovTribe MCP server before loading tool definitions, especially when an agent can route among standard, compact, compatibility, and grouped GovTribe endpoints.
Add to container
Adds accessible GovTribe User Files, files from file-bearing entities, typed-search JSON, or generated images to the hosted `shell` tool under /mnt/data. Provide items, search_results_id, image_generation_call_ids, or a combination. Existing same-workspace User Files do not need another conversation upload. Never generates or edits images. Returns a status snapshot; if in_progress, call again later with the same arguments. Use returned container_files.path_hint values, including after container replacement.
