compute_connection_to_existing

Paid tier only. Calling this without an authenticated CivilQuants account returns TIER_INSUFFICIENT — sign up at https://civilquants.com/pricing or use the free-tier alternative compute_manhole. Enumerated extra-over connection of a new drainage carrier pipe into an existing asset: existing manhole / inspection chamber, existing sewer or drain (via saddle / wye / cut-in junction), or existing outfall / watercourse / surface system. Routes via CESMM4 I.7.1/2/3 (Class I §I.7 Pipework Ancillaries — Connections), NRM2 33.6.1/2/3, MMHW 500.5.1/2/3 (SHW Cl. 506 Connections to existing sewers, drains and service runs), SMM7 R12.4.1/2/3, with a bore-size digit suffix appended in all four. The connection_type attribute is the discriminator that routes to the right sub-code; the bore digit refines within. Six variant presets cover all three connection types × two characteristic bores. Unit: Nr. Opens the new `drainage_ancillaries` L2 leaf (reserved for ditch, hard-material extra-over, CCTV testing, etc. in future sessions). Sibling assembly: carrier_pipe_run — the S32 pair that delivers a complete tender drainage line. Example params: diameter_mm=225 mm (100–2400). Example call: {"params": {"diameter_mm": 225}, "standard": "MMHW"}. Omitted parameters use sensible engineering defaults.

compute_hard_material_in_trench

Paid tier only. Calling this without an authenticated CivilQuants account returns TIER_INSUFFICIENT — sign up at https://civilquants.com/pricing or use the free-tier alternative compute_manhole. Linear extra-over measurement of hard material encountered during drainage trench excavation. Discriminates between natural rock (CESMM4 E.6 / NRM2 5.6.1 / MMHW 500.6.1 / SMM7 R12.6.1) and artificial hard material — buried concrete / masonry / obstructions (CESMM4 E.7 / NRM2 5.6.2 / MMHW 500.6.2 / SMM7 R12.6.2). The platform's first dual-quantity WorkItem: carries both length_m and volume_m3 so CESMM4/NRM2 (m³) and MMHW/SMM7 (m) each render with their correct unit per the standards' rules. Eight variant presets cover both hard-material types × four depth bands. SMM7 R12 deems trench excavation (including hard material) included in the pipe-run rate — the SMM7 handler emits a zero-priceable annotated line for tender transparency (third use of the deemed-included extra-over annotation pattern). Closes the drainage_ancillaries L2 leaf at 4/4 members. Sibling assemblies: connection_to_existing (S32), ditch (S33), pipework_testing (S33). Example params: length_m=10 m (0.5–500), max_depth_m=1.5 m (0.3–10), trench_width_m=0.7 m (0.3–3).

Four structural forms via the bored_pile_form discriminator: CONTIGUOUS (clear-spaced piles, shotcrete face), SECANT_HARD_SOFT (alternating soft/hard overlapping piles, intermediate watertightness), SECANT_HARD_HARD (overlapping RC piles, maximum watertightness; deep basements), and KING_POST_AND_LAGGING_RC (widely-spaced RC king posts with lagging panels). 18th use of the classed-then-legacy attribute discrimination pattern, applied via the CONCRETE_REINFORCED handler's new wall_type='bored_pile' branch for the capping beam (when included). Routes via five new WorkCategory entries (BORED_PILE_CONCRETE, BORED_PILE_BORE, BORED_PILE_NR, BORED_PILE_HEAD_PREP, BORED_PILE_INTERLOCK) covering the CESMM4 Class P §P.8 three-line cast-in-place pile measurement convention plus the Class Q ancillaries head-prep line and the secant-specific interlock line. Codes: CESMM4 P.8.1-4 + Q.1.1, NRM2 7.6.1-4 + 7.5.1, MMHW 1600.5-6 (SHW Cl. 1602/1603), and SMM7 D30.1-5 — D30 (Cast in place piling) is OPENED at this session as the conventional UK QS named home. Capping beam routes via CONCRETE_REINFORCED with wall_type='bored_pile' to F.6.5 / 11.3.5 / 1700.4.4 / E10.3.4. Reinforcement billed itemised (separate audit line per BS 8666:2020 cage) on top of the pile rate by S31 decision. Eight variant presets exercise all four BoredPileForm values (2/2/2/2 split). Example params: wall_length_m=20 m (5–200), retained_height_m=6 m (2–20), embedment_below_formation_m=4 m (1–15). Example call: {"params": {"wall_length_m": 20, "retained_height_m": 6, "embedment_below_formation_m": 4}, "standard": "MMHW"}. Omitted parameters use sensible engineering defaults. Pass deliverables=["xlsx","dxf","pdf"] (any subset) to also receive one-shot download URLs in the same call: Excel BoQ (both tiers, watermarked free) plus the dimensioned DXF (CAD) and PDF drawing sheets (paid tier).

compute_counterfort_wall

Paid tier only. Calling this without an authenticated CivilQuants account returns TIER_INSUFFICIENT — sign up at https://civilquants.com/pricing or use the free-tier alternative compute_cantilever_wall. In-situ reinforced concrete counterfort retaining wall. Discrete RC counterforts on the retained face enhance moment capacity, making the wall economic for 4-10m retained heights (above cantilever-economic range, below anchored-wall range). Includes base slab, thin curtain wall, counterforts at configurable centres, drainage, and backfill. Eight VARIANT_PRESETS exercise the 'one parameter form, eight variants, four standards' moat #1 claim.

compute_gravity_wall

Paid tier only. Calling this without an authenticated CivilQuants account returns TIER_INSUFFICIENT — sign up at https://civilquants.com/pricing or use the free-tier alternative compute_cantilever_wall. In-situ mass concrete gravity retaining wall (typical C20/25 to C25/30) with trapezoidal cross-section, retaining soil by self-weight rather than structural action. Eight variant presets exercise the parameter form — landscape, highway boundary, trapezoidal, stepped-front, toe-projection, keyed-base, stepped-foundation, and battered-back-vertical-front. Routes via wall_type='gravity' attribute discrimination through CESMM4 F.5.3, NRM2 11.2.3, MMHW 1700.5 (SHW Cl. 1704 structural concrete), and SMM7 E10.2.3.

compute_utility_chamber

Paid tier only. Calling this without an authenticated CivilQuants account returns TIER_INSUFFICIENT — sign up at https://civilquants.com/pricing or use the free-tier alternative compute_manhole. Catalogue-driven utility access chamber covering ten standard UK types: BT/Openreach jointing chambers JC1-JC4 (defaulting to UTILITY_PROVIDER_SUPPLY routing), water meter chamber (FW6), wastewater inspection chamber (RW9), valve chamber, gas Emergency Control Valve pit (ECV), LV electrical link box, and cable draw pit. Composite emission: precast chamber unit + BS EN 124 cover & frame (PC supply) + excavation + bedding (SHW Cl. 803) + granular surround + optional geotextile + selected fill + disposal. Routes via manhole_type=utility_chamber attribute discrimination through CESMM4 Class K.1.5.x, NRM2 33.7.11-.13, MMHW 500.5.13-.15 (SHW Cl. 507), and SMM7 R12.3.10-.12. JC types route their chamber unit through the v18 statutory-undertaker supply route infrastructure (CESMM4 Class A.4.3, NRM2 Group 1, MMHW Series 100, SMM7 A53) as a PC sum plus contractor attendance line. Example params: bedding_thickness_mm=150 mm (75–300), bedding_overhang_m=0.1 m (0.075–0.3), surround_thickness_m=0.15 m (0.1–0.3).

compute_utility_kiosk_base

Paid tier only. Calling this without an authenticated CivilQuants account returns TIER_INSUFFICIENT — sign up at https://civilquants.com/pricing or use the free-tier alternative compute_manhole. Foundation + kiosk hardware composite for utility cabinets — LV electricity feeder pillars (DNO-supplied), Openreach FTTC cabinets (PIA-supplied), EV rapid-charging plinths, packaged DNO substations, and generic precast plinths. Light-wrapper delegation around pad_foundation for the substructure (excavation, RC pad with pedestal, reinforcement), plus kiosk-specific PC-supply hardware (1 complete unit on UPS route, 4 components — body / door / lock / base-plate — on Employer-PC route). Catalogue-driven supply-route defaults encode that LV pillars and FTTC cabinets are normally utility-provider-supplied complete units, while EV chargers, DNO substations, and generic plinths are normally Employer-PC-nominated per component. Example params: quantity=1 Nr (1–100), blinding_thickness_m=0.075 m (0.05–0.15), working_space_m=0.3 m (0–1).

compute_combined_services_trench

Paid tier only. Calling this without an authenticated CivilQuants account returns TIER_INSUFFICIENT — sign up at https://civilquants.com/pricing or use the free-tier alternative compute_manhole. Shared utility trench carrying multiple services side by side, each at its own cover depth (water, gas, electricity, telecoms) per NJUG Volume 1. One excavation envelope sized from the services, one disposal, one backfill column, with per-service lane-width bedding, surround, pipe/duct, and warning tape. Renders through CESMM4 Class I, NRM2 Group 41, MMHW Series 1300 and SMM7 Group T for the services, with the shared envelope routing through the existing earthworks/drainage handlers.

compute_single_service_run

Paid tier only. Calling this without an authenticated CivilQuants account returns TIER_INSUFFICIENT — sign up at https://civilquants.com/pricing or use the free-tier alternative compute_manhole. Single-service utility run per NJUG Volume 1 — one water main OR one gas main OR one electricity cable duct OR one telecoms duct (or fibre / street-lighting / HV cable duct) in a dedicated trench. Wraps the combined-services-trench engine with a single-band envelope and re-tags emissions back to this assembly. Renders through CESMM4 Class I / NRM2 Group 41 / MMHW Series 1300 / SMM7 Group T (services) on top of the shared earthworks / drainage handlers (excavation, disposal, bedding, surround, fill, tape). Example params: bedding_thickness_m=0.1 m (0.05–0.3), surround_above_crown_m=0.15 m (0–0.5), trench_length_m=50 m (1–1000).

render_skill_report

Render previously-computed BoQ results into a deliverable (Excel workbook or Word report). Excel is free with watermark + sheet protection; Word is paid-tier only and returns a TIER_INSUFFICIENT envelope for anonymous callers. The wire shape matches POST /api/v1/mcp/render exactly.

save_project

Persist a CivilQuants project with its assembly list. Each call creates a new project — it never overwrites an existing one. To revise a saved project's parameters: call get_project to recover its assemblies, amend the values, then call save_project again with the amended list (a revision-suffixed name like 'Pump Station R02' keeps the history browsable) and run recompute_project on the new project_id — recompute_project takes no parameter overrides. To measure a different assembly type instead, route via resolve_assembly_from_description. Re-find saved work in a later conversation with list_projects or get_project by exact name. Paid tier only — anonymous callers receive a TIER_INSUFFICIENT envelope pointing at https://civilquants.com/pricing.

get_project

Fetch a previously saved CivilQuants project by project_id. When the id is not in context (e.g. a new conversation reopening 'Demo - Cantilever Wall'), pass the project's exact display name in the project_id field instead. If several projects share the name, the error envelope lists the candidate project_ids; call list_projects to browse everything saved. Paid tier only — anonymous callers receive a TIER_INSUFFICIENT envelope.

list_projects

List every project saved by the calling subscriber — project_id, name, client, status, default standard, assembly count, timestamps. Use this to re-find a saved project from a new conversation when its project_id is no longer in context, then pass the project_id to get_project or recompute_project. Paid tier only — anonymous callers receive a TIER_INSUFFICIENT envelope.

No parameters.

recompute_project

Re-run every enabled assembly in a saved project and render aggregated BoQs across the requested measurement standards. recompute_project takes no parameter overrides — it re-runs the saved assemblies exactly as stored. To revise a parameter, save an amended copy with save_project (see its description for the recipe) and recompute the new project_id. Paid tier only — anonymous callers receive a TIER_INSUFFICIENT envelope.

compute_multi_section_assembly

Compute one sectioned/linear assembly across multiple sections in a single call and return a combined Bill of Quantities plus per-section results. Each section sets its own run_length and geometry; shared_params apply to all sections. Use for a wall, kerb run, drain or barrier that changes along its length. assembly_slug must be a sectioned assembly (e.g. cantilever_wall, kerb_run, edge_drain); non-linear items return INVALID_INPUT. Free tier: MMHW only, each section consumes one daily slot. Example: {"assembly_slug":"cantilever_wall","standard":"MMHW","sections":[{"label":"Bay 1","run_length":20,"stem_height":1.5},{"label":"Bay 2","run_length":15,"stem_height":2.4}]}.

resolve_assembly_from_description

Resolve a plain-English job description to candidate catalogue assemblies and the fields you'll need to compute one. Deterministic router — it does NOT return a Bill of Quantities and NEVER guesses parameter values; it returns candidate slugs (plural when ambiguous, with clarifying questions), each assembly's tier, whether it supports compute_multi_section_assembly, and per-field metadata (unit, min/max, default). Then call compute_<slug> (or compute_multi_section_assembly) with the values you fill in. Also known as compute_from_description. Example: {"description":"a 3 m deep manhole","preferred_standard":"MMHW"}.

list_skills

List the 10 senior-QS skill methodologies CivilQuants exposes (tender review, risk assessment, QS measurement/contract advice, geotechnical + geo-environmental interpretation, earthworks, preliminaries, pavement design, subcontract analysis). Universal discovery — both tiers see the full list. Returns each skill's slug, title, one-line summary and tier; then call get_skill(skill=<slug>) to fetch the methodology body. The skills are paid-tier; a free caller gets a sign-up prompt from get_skill. NOTE: the document-heavy skills (tender review, the interpretation skills) need a code-execution client (Claude Code / Codex / VS Code) plus the chunking pack from get_document_pipeline to run a real tender pack — on a chat connector you can read the methodology but cannot chunk/parse files.

No parameters.

get_skill

Paid tier only. Fetch a senior-QS skill methodology by slug (see list_skills) and APPLY it to the user's documents — the returned body is the system instruction for you to run the methodology on the customer's tokens; CivilQuants does not run inference. Paid callers get the full methodology; anonymous/free callers get a TIER_INSUFFICIENT upsell body; a rejected token gets an INVALID_TOKEN re-authenticate body. The document-heavy skills assume you can chunk/parse the customer's files and render a Word pack locally — that needs a code-execution client (Claude Code / Codex / VS Code) and the pack from get_document_pipeline; on a chat connector you can still read and reason with the methodology. Sign up at https://civilquants.com/pricing. Example: get_skill(skill="tender_risk_assessment").

get_document_pipeline

Obtain the CivilQuants customer-side document pipeline — the toolkit the document-heavy skills (tender review, geotechnical / geo-environmental interpretation) use to chunk a tender pack and render a Word pack on the user's machine. Returns the self-unpacking chunking package, the pipeline discipline, and the python-docx render helpers. Universal (free + paid). NOTE: running the pipeline over real documents requires a code-execution client (Claude Code / Codex / VS Code) — a chat connector can read the toolkit but cannot execute it. The full kit is large (~60 KB); pass component='chunking'|'discipline'|'render' for one part (~20 KB each), or omit it for the whole kit.
