Read-onlyGeographic boundariesMCP tool

geo_boundary_search

Search geographic boundaries (regional neighborhoods, neighborhoods, subdivisions) by name.

Search geographic boundaries (regional neighborhoods, neighborhoods, subdivisions) by name. Returns id, kind, name, centroid, and bbox for each match. Useful when the user asks about a named place ("show me The Northwest", "what neighborhood is this in"). Pass the returned id to listings_list as boundary_id to filter listings to the polygon. Results are ordered by kind priority (regional > neighborhood > subdivision) then text-search relevance — so a search for "northwest" surfaces "The Northwest" (regional) above any subdivision with that word in its name.
