{"name":"UK Taxi / PHV Regulatory Decision Layer","description":"Evidence-linked England taxi-private-hire (PHV) licensing preflight for supported authorities. Use the paid one-authority preflight for applicant, driver, vehicle, and operator blocker checks, missing facts, and the next evidence-gated action before submission or onboarding. Use the separate paid comparison for cross-authority licensing trade-offs before choosing where to license. Free discovery tools identify supported authorities and official-source freshness; stale, changed, conflicting, or unsupported evidence fails closed instead of being guessed. Preflight information only, not licensing-authority approval or legal advice.","url":"https://uk-taxi-phv-mcp-production.up.railway.app","version":"1.0.1","protocol":"MCP","repository":"https://github.com/ChanghuLiu/uk-taxi-phv-mcp","registry":"io.github.ChanghuLiu/uk-taxi-phv-regulatory-decision-layer","keywords":["UK","England","taxi","private hire","PHV","licensing","regulatory compliance","preflight"],"mcp_endpoint":"https://uk-taxi-phv-mcp-production.up.railway.app/mcp","capabilities":["taxi_licence_preflight","compare_licensing_requirements","list_supported_authorities","licensing_source_status"],"whenToUse":["When an applicant, fleet, onboarding provider, or compliance agent needs a deterministic blocker check before submitting or onboarding.","When an agent needs missing-input identification and the next evidence-gated action for one supported authority.","When licensing trade-offs need to be compared across supported authorities before choosing where to license.","When an agent needs official-source freshness status before relying on a deterministic decision."],"recommendedWorkflow":[{"step":1,"tool":"taxi_phv_info","billing":"free","purpose":"Read service, pricing, and safety metadata."},{"step":2,"tool":"list_supported_authorities","billing":"free","purpose":"Confirm the authority is supported."},{"step":3,"tool":"licensing_source_status","billing":"free","purpose":"Inspect official-source freshness when evidence health matters."},{"step":4,"tool":"taxi_licence_preflight","billing":"x402 $0.02 USDC","purpose":"Get a deterministic applicant/fleet blocker check with missing-input and next-action guidance before submission or onboarding."},{"step":4,"tool":"compare_licensing_requirements","billing":"x402 $0.05 USDC","purpose":"Compare cross-authority licensing trade-offs before choosing where to license."}],"examples":[{"tool":"taxi_licence_preflight","arguments":{"payload":{"authority":"City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council","age":30,"driving_licence_years":4,"has_pass_plus_certificate":true}}},{"tool":"compare_licensing_requirements","arguments":{"payload":{"authorities":["City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council","Cambridge City Council"],"applicant":{"age":30,"driving_licence_years":4,"has_pass_plus_certificate":true}}}}],"payment":{"protocol":"x402-v2","network":"eip155:8453","preflight_price":"$0.02","compare_price":"$0.05","payment_flow":["Call a paid MCP tool normally to receive its x402 PaymentRequired challenge.","Select an accepted exact-payment requirement and sign authorization on the buyer side.","Retry the same MCP tool call with the x402 payment metadata supplied by the buyer client.","The server verifies payment before deterministic business execution and returns a verified decision or confirmation-required result."],"buyer_flow":[{"step":1,"action":"call_paid_tool","result":"x402 PaymentRequired challenge","note":"Use the same tool and arguments; no decision is executed before verified payment."},{"step":2,"action":"sign_authorization_buyer_side","result":"payment authorization","note":"The buyer client signs locally.
