GovTribe
MCP tools

Search Activity MCP tool

Searches GovTribe activity feed events for a subject record and optionally related records.

Examples

Use Search_Activity when the task asks what changed for a specific GovTribe record. Always pass the subject as govtribe_type and govtribe_id; the tool handles direct target matches, related-record matches, and pursuit-linked target matches internally.

The tool defaults to the most recent 60 days and requires any custom timestamp_range to include both from and to. The maximum custom window is 180 days.
