# Topograph country coverage

When the user asks about coverage for a specific country:

1. Call `get_country(cc)` on the `topograph` MCP.
2. Summarize:
   - **Identifiers accepted** (with format + example)
   - **Data blocks offered** (block name → datapoints → modes available)
   - **Documents available** (trade register extract, UBO extract, etc.)
   - **Registers used** (the upstream sources)
   - **Known gaps** (`manifest.gaps`) — explain *why* something is missing
3. Use the right case for the country code: ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 for most
   countries, `US_XX` for US states (e.g. `US_NY`, `US_DE`).

If they ask about a country that returns "not found", suggest
`list_countries(region=...)` to browse what's available in the relevant region.

## Don't over-trust training data

Topograph adds countries frequently. The MCP catalog is the source of truth.
Never claim "Topograph doesn't support X" without first calling the MCP — the
training cutoff is months behind what's live.
