Examples

Use vector store search after Add_To_Vector_Store returns a ready govtribe_vector_store_id. For full package analysis, wait until the add response reports completed and ready, or until a text-only response says the requested files are ready for Search_Vector_Store.

Keep max_num_results as small as the answer requires. If this tool returns a not-ready message, retry later or call Add_To_Vector_Store again with the original source items and the returned govtribe_vector_store_id to refresh readiness.
