Tools

• check_train_options ~322 tokens
  Live seat availability per class for one train on one date, plus every other way to book it when the through ticket will not confirm: a split at an intermediate station, boarding earlier, alighting later. This is the tool that rescues a waitlisted train. It spends a metered upstream call, so ask it
• find_place ~203 tokens
  Turn what somebody typed into RailRoute place ids. ALWAYS call this before plan_journey. A place is a city with all of its stations and airports — Mumbai covers CSMT, LTT, Dadar, Bandra Terminus and the airport — so the planner can choose the right terminal rather than making the traveller do it. Ty
• journey_calendar ~232 tokens
  Day-by-day service over a span of dates for a station pair: which days have a direct train and which have none, plus the weekly pattern. Use this when somebody is flexible about when they travel, or asks 'does it run on Sundays'. Timetable only — it says nothing about seats.
• nearby_stations ~183 tokens
  Other railway stations within a radius of one station, nearest first. Useful when a place has no service of its own and the traveller needs to know what is reachable — the planner already does this internally, so reach for it only when somebody asks the question directly.
• next_confirmed_date ~271 tokens
  Search forward up to a month for the first date this route can actually be travelled with a confirmed berth — direct trains and one-change journeys together. Use it when a traveller is flexible about WHEN and the date they asked for is waitlisted. EXPENSIVE: it checks seats across dozens of trains a
• plan_journey ~884 tokens
  Every practical way to get from one place to another: direct trains with their fares per class, journeys with one change of train, flights, mixed train-and-flight itineraries, and GOVERNMENT BUSES from the state road transport corporations, priced from their own reservation systems. This is the whol
• station_departures ~200 tokens
  Every train scheduled to call at a station, in departure order — the enquiry board, not a journey plan. Use plan_journey when somebody wants to get somewhere; use this when they are asking what leaves from here. Scheduled times only.
• train_schedule ~107 tokens
  Every stop of one train with its scheduled arrival and departure, in order. Scheduled times only — this says nothing about where the train is today.
