## Tools

7 declared. Statically extracted from the shipped source — a floor on the surface, not a census.
- `search_projects` — Search the WaitingForPower dataset of U.S. energy projects (generation, transmission, storage, LNG, pipelines) currently stuck waiting on permitting approval. R
- `get_project` — Full detail for one WaitingForPower project by slug — cited sources, milestone timeline, capacity, and estimated investment waiting. Get a slug from search_proj
- `get_stats` — Headline aggregate numbers (project count, capacity waiting, clean-energy capacity waiting, estimated investment waiting) for the WaitingForPower dataset, optio
- `list_causes` — The fixed set of structural bottleneck categories (interconnection queue backlog, NEPA review, multi-agency permitting, transmission siting, litigation, local/s
- `list_policies` — WaitingForPower's six bipartisan permitting-reform policy proposals, one per structural cause category — each with a summary, strengths, weaknesses, and related
- `list_states` — USPS state codes and full names usable as the `state` filter in other tools.
- `submit_prediction` — Predict the real-world date a pending project will reach a resolved stage (approved, cancelled, etc.) — only

## Blast radius

Contained to moderate — no credential declaration found, from the publisher, the upstream registry, or the README. Known so far: runs on someone else's infrastructure; read-only tool surface.
- Floor 9, ceiling 27 (tier: unknown)
- `unknown` means the floor and ceiling land in different bands — not measured enough to name one. It does not mean low.
- This is impact, not likelihood. A high radius is not a defect: a filesystem server is supposed to write files. It is never part of the trust score.
