check_route Check current conditions along a major California highway corridor. The flagship trip-check tool: give it a start and end place and it returns everything active along that stretch right now - CHP incidents, lane closures physically in place, chain controls, and wildfires within ~10
check_region Full current-conditions report for a California region. Use this for area-scale questions ("how is the Bay Area?", "what's happening in SoCal?") instead of stitching together point queries. It sweeps every source over the whole region at once: CHP incidents (severity-sorted, worst f
get_incidents Live CHP traffic incidents statewide, optionally filtered. Data: the California Highway Patrol statewide computer-aided dispatch feed - collisions, traffic hazards, disabled vehicles, closures as CHP logs them. Refreshes about once a minute; incidents disappear when CHP closes the l
get_lane_closures Caltrans lane and road closures physically in place RIGHT NOW. Data: the Caltrans Lane Closure System (LCS). Only closures that crews have actually established (CHP code 1097) and not yet picked up are returned - scheduled-but-not-started closures are excluded, so this is "what is b
get_chain_controls Current chain-control requirements on California mountain highways. Data: Caltrans chain-control status for fixed checkpoints on mountain routes (I-80 Donner, US-50 Echo Summit, SR-88, SR-89, and others). Levels: R-1 = chains OR snow tires required; R-2 = chains required except 4WD/
get_wildfires Active California wildfires, flagged when close to a major highway. Data: the interagency WFIGS current-wildfire feed (NIFC) - name, size in acres, percent contained, discovery date. Points are each fire's ORIGIN, not its perimeter: a large fire can affect roads far from this point.
rank_routes Which major corridors have the most going on right now. Answers broad questions like "what are the busiest routes", "where is traffic worst", or "which highways should I avoid today" across all 17 tracked corridors. by="activity" ranks on live events (full closures weigh most, then
get_cameras Live Caltrans roadside camera snapshots near a point or on a route. Data: ~3,000 in-service Caltrans cameras statewide. Every returned image_url was verified live moments ago (offline cameras that serve a placeholder frame are filtered out), so images can be shown directly. Snapshot
get_road_signs What Caltrans changeable message signs are displaying right now. Data: statewide CMS sign text, blank and out-of-service signs already filtered - every record is a message a driver is physically seeing. Signs carry the road's operational truth ("CHAINS REQUIRED 10 MI AHEAD", "FULL C
get_nearby_events Live road events near a point anywhere CommuteScout covers, not just California: 37 states today, growing. Data: the same multi-state feeds the live map shows, normalized - state DOT incidents, roadwork and closures, chain and traction advisories, and nationwide wildfires. Every eve
