GovTribe

Read account MCP tool

Read your account plan, AI/MCP prerequisites, available prepaid/promotional/included credits, your personal allowance, and PAYG spending headroom. Free to call, including after credit depletion or paid-usage suspension. Takes no arguments. Check before starting batches and use your own replenishment thresholds. Credits and USD headroom are separate; uncapped PAYG is not infinite credits. This is an advisory local snapshot, not authorization or reserved capacity. Unknown fields are not zero. Individual tools still enforce scopes, resource permissions and feature access.

Examples

Check account capacity before starting a batch, or check again after an administrator replenishes credits. This call costs no credits and remains available when paid usage is blocked. It accepts no arguments and always reads the authenticated user's account.

}

Use the response contract to interpret credit quantities, personal allowances, and pay-as-you-go headroom. Set a replenishment threshold that allows time for your procurement process. Polling does not itself send alerts or purchase credits.

The standard server exposes this tool. Specialized servers do not currently expose it. Client setup and connection choices are described in GovTribe MCP. A restricted token needs the account-read permission in addition to MCP access; a general MCP token can discover the tool normally. Refresh the client's tool list after changing permissions.

Account inspection allows 30 calls per minute per user. On RATE_LIMITED, wait for the returned retry interval. Other tools keep their normal billing and access checks.
