What this server can do

10 functions, named and described by the server itself. Parameter names are shown because they say more about what a function does than its name usually does.

scrutica_entity_list_changes(limit, weeks, company_id)

What CHANGED in the BIS Entity List, as bounded change-log summaries. Backed by the same derivation the public /export-controls/changes page and its RSS feed render. PREFER this over scrutica_query_export_controls for freshness questions ("what changed this month", "latest additions", "recent removals"): designation rows arrive already grouped into per-Federal-Register-notice change events, so you do not re-derive notice grouping from citation strings. Each event carries: canonical FR citation and link, notice title / publication date / document number where the citation resolved to one FR document, a derived event date labeled with the source column it came from, entity / addition / removal counts, per-country counts, a bounded sample of entity names, and the entities cross-referenced to compute-infrastructure organizations. Removal actions are returned separately as date-keyed events — a screening list maintained from additions alone over-blocks forever. Also returns a last-N-ISO-week activity rollup counting BOTH additions and removals. Zero-count weeks are a real quiet-Federal-Register signal, not missing data. Results are bounded summaries, never row dumps: at most 24 events per call (default 6, newest first), with any truncation declared in metadata. Cite totals from the count field and per-event entity_count — never by summing a sampled list. Do NOT use this to look up one entity's designation rows — use scrutica_query_export_controls (substring match on the published name). Use company_id here only to scope the log to notices touching an organization you already resolved. Authority tier: Federal-Register-anchored designations are Tier 1 (primary source). The event date is derived (modal designation_date, falling back to modal effective_date) and labeled with its source.

scrutica_estimate_flops(sparsity, precision, unit_count, utilization, hardware_type)

Compute peak BF16 FLOP estimates for a hardware configuration. Returns point estimate + bounds. Methodology matches the Interactive Methodology Explorer at /methodology#flop-estimation. Do NOT present outputs as exact measurements — always relay the bounds and the is_estimated flag. Required: hardware_type, unit_count.

scrutica_get_company(company_id)

Fetch complete details for a single organization (company, government entity, holding company) by canonical Scrutica ID. Returns: legal name, country of HQ, organization type, parent / subsidiary references, supply-chain edge counts. Use scrutica_query_export_controls for BIS designation details. Use scrutica_get_supply_chain for full edge graphs. Required: company_id.

scrutica_get_facility(facility_id)

Fetch complete details for a single Scrutica facility by canonical ID. Returns: operator, owner, country, power capacity (MW), GPU inventory (where disclosed), location (lat/lng), facility type, status, data_source, source_url, is_estimated flags, and any logged data-quality flags (cross-source divergence investigations). For BIS Entity List designations tied to the facility's owner, look up the owner org via scrutica_query_export_controls — this tool does not compute ownership-chain BIS exposure. Resolve facility IDs first via scrutica_search. Required: facility_id.

scrutica_get_methodology(topic)

Return methodology documentation for a Scrutica metric or index. Topics: 'flop-estimation', 'cost-index', 'compute-visibility-index', 'supply-chain-weighting', 'chokepoint-cascade', 'sovereign-execution-classification'. Returns the canonical URL + section anchor + summary. Use this when a user asks "how did you calculate X". Required: topic.

scrutica_get_scenario(scenario_id)

Fetch geopolitical compute risk scenarios. Available: 'taiwan-strait' (4 TSMC disruption scenarios), 'iran-threat' (IRGC missile range vs Gulf compute), 'tokyo-earthquake' (Japan memory-fab exposure), 'south-china-sea' (submarine cable severing), 'abqaiq-2' (Saudi grid). Returns the scenario's summary plus its substrate serialized from the interactive page's own data modules — assumption scenarios / threat systems / affected assets with per-item sources and authority tiers, capped lists shipping their true totals. The propagation SIMULATION itself remains interactive-only at the returned URL. Required: scenario_id.

scrutica_get_sovereign_program(country, list_all, program_id)

Fetch detailed data on a national sovereign AI compute program. Returns: announced_usd, announced_govt_only_usd, committed_usd, disbursed_usd, reality_ratio, status, key_partners, governance_reach, NVIDIA/US dependency, source_count. 'list_all' returns a summary table of all tracked programs. READ THE TWO ANNOUNCED FIELDS BEFORE COMPARING COUNTRIES. announced_usd is the all-capital headline and rolls private commitments in with government money, so it is NOT comparable across countries as-is: the UAE line ($518.74B) and France ($201.34B) are dominated by private vehicles (Stargate UAE, SoftBank), while the US line ($2.6B) is essentially NAIRR alone. announced_govt_only_usd is the government-only figure and is the comparable one. reality_ratio = disbursed_usd / announced_govt_only_usd (falling back to announced_usd only when no government-only figure exists). It is deliberately NOT disbursed_usd / announced_usd. Each row ships reality_ratio_denominator_usd and reality_ratio_denominator_field so the division is reproducible from the payload. reality_ratio is null for most programs because disbursed_usd is unpublished — see reality_ratio_unavailable_reason. Absence concentrates in the least transparent programs (Saudi, China, Korea, UAE all report no disbursed figure), so a ranking by reality_ratio is a ranking of DISCLOSURE, not of execution; do not present it as the latter.

scrutica_get_supply_chain(limit, org_ids, direction)

Return supply-chain relationships for one or more organizations. direction = 'upstream' traces suppliers (who feeds this entity); 'downstream' traces customers (who depends on this entity); 'both' returns both. Each edge: source_org_id, target_org_id, relationship_type, supply_share (where disclosed), price_correlation_3m (3-month rolling, where available), data_source. Dataset: 18,999 edges from a licensed supply-chain database (held under subscription, not redistributed) plus SEC Exhibit 21 (substrate snapshot 2026-08-12). Required: org_ids.

scrutica_query_export_controls(limit, country, entity_id, entity_name)

Look up BIS Entity List designations for companies or countries. The queried dataset is the US Commerce Department Entity List, Federal-Register-anchored; it does NOT cover OFAC SDN or Wassenaar CCL (for an organization's OFAC SDN / NS-CMIC / Section-1260H status, use scrutica_get_company — the record carries on_ofac_sdn / on_ns_cmic / on_1260h booleans). entity_name is a case-insensitive substring match against the designated entity's published name (no alias expansion). Returns entity_name, entity_type, country, list_type, designation_date, removal_date, grounds, federal_register_citation, source_url (Federal Register notice URL), data_quality_flags. Authority tier: Federal-Register-anchored designations are Tier 1 (primary source). bis_coverage_class discriminates how a row is covered: explicitly_named (FR notice cites the entity by name) vs affiliate_50pct_rule (inferred via BIS's 50% Affiliates Rule). coverage_note is populated only on affiliate_50pct_rule rows and states whether that rule is currently suspended. data_quality_flags is an array of provenance/caveat notes, empty for most rows; where present (derived-country provenance, removal-date sourcing, or the affiliate rows' suspension and substrate-reproducibility caveats) treat it as load-bearing context for the row.

scrutica_search(limit, query, country, entity_type)

Search facilities, companies, or sovereign programs by free-text query. Returns ranked results with id, name, type, one-line summary, and Scrutica URL. Filter by entity_type to scope to a single class. Filter by ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code. Do NOT use this for BIS Entity List / export-control lookups — use scrutica_query_export_controls. Do NOT use this for supply-chain traversal — resolve an entity ID first via this tool, then call scrutica_get_supply_chain. Required: query.

These are separate measurements of different things. They are deliberately not combined into one score, because a popularity number that mixes website traffic with saves and stars cannot be checked or acted on.
