• get_entity_provenance ~156 tokens
  For one company, model, or person: how much of the claim activity Horizon holds provenance data for is self-reported by that entity versus independently evaluated by someone else. Descriptive counts over the last 30 days — not a score, and not a judgement about whether any claim is true. Answers "is

• get_related ~133 tokens
  Semantic 'more like this': given an item id (from get_new_since, search_news, or the feed), returns the most similar recent items by embedding similarity. Titles, sources, similarity scores, links.
• get_topic_signal ~146 tokens
  The current AI signal for a topic — recent, relevance-scored items tagged with that topic, ranked by momentum. Like get_region_signal but sliced by subject instead of geography.

  Describe what Horizon covers: ingestion sources with their source= filter values, the regional lenses (region= / dedicated tools), and how to filter. Call this to understand the corpus before querying.
• search_news ~88 tokens
  Quick title search over the last 14 days of AI news: returns the top 3 matches by momentum, with links and item ids (pass one to get_related).
