Server-provided instructions

Untrusted server output shown for inspection. It is not Koskamo guidance and is excluded from knowledge search.

Verified, origin-proofed US political data. Tools = actions; Resources = signed records as context (subscribe to get notified when a record changes); Prompts = provenance-enforcing workflows.

Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

One signed, bounded slice of a bill's full legislative text, addressed by part number or section label. Each response carries part and total_parts, next_part, the slice's part_sha256, and the whole-bill content_hash. Parts 1 through total_parts concatenated in order hash to content_hash, so a bill too large to return in a single response remains verifiable as complete and unaltered.

Advertised read-only

Get a candidate's Campaign Data Standard (CDS) feed: a single machine-readable record of who they are, the offices they hold and seek, their positions in their own words (each source-linked), their voting record by reference, and declared data gaps. This is the standardized, signed feed an AI or reporter uses to grab a candidate's positions and verify they are genuine. Every MCP response is signed; the standalone signed feed is also at /official/{id}/candidate.json. Tier is "rootz-compiled" until the campaign claims and signs it ("candidate-signed").

politics_polls — politics_polls
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Search the SIGNED public-poll archive. Unlike aggregators, every poll keeps the EXACT question wording, population base (LV/RV/adults), sample size, margin of error, mode, and per-option toplines — first-party sourced, snapshot-hashed, and cryptographically signed (verifiable). Filter by race_key, state, subject (e.g. "approval", "Senate"), pollster, or since (ISO date). Returns a list; call politics_poll {id} for full detail + signature. Use this when a question hinges on what a poll ACTUALLY asked vs how it was reported.
