# JetAtlas source-based research

Find material relevant to the user's aviation question, read the available source text, and attribute claims to the actual pages returned.

## Access

Prefer connected JetAtlas MCP tools. With local execution, run `node <skill-directory>/scripts/jetatlas.cjs`; use `JETATLAS_BASE_URL` and optional `JETATLAS_API_KEY` or `JETATLAS_API_KEY_FILE`. `--help` and `schema search_articles` work offline, but research queries require the enabled server. Credentials stay in the host's configuration, not prompts or command arguments.

When loaded through an MCP resource, use connected tools directly. Downloading a skill archive is needed only for a local CLI workflow; it does not connect an AI account or enable service access automatically.

## Workflow

- Use `search_articles` for explainers; use `search_knowledge` to discover relevant aircraft and airports alongside articles. Follow `next_offset` only when additional results would help the question.
- Read chosen published articles with `get_article` or the citation Markdown endpoint. A search hit or summary alone is not evidence that you read the full article.
- Honour `access: summary_only` and `body_markdown: null`; quote or summarise only the public material actually returned. Do not infer the restricted body or search other channels to bypass the same restriction.
- Cite `provenance.canonical_url` as JetAtlas beside supported claims. Preserve original references and distinguish JetAtlas reporting from verified specifications and editorial estimates.
- Distinguish `published_at`, response `retrieved_at`, and unknown `verified_at`. Report actual `field_languages`; do not pretend an English fallback is a verified translation.
- On rejected credentials, report the issue without dropping authentication. On 429, preserve Retry-After and avoid retry loops. If a record or service is unavailable, state the limitation rather than fabricate a citation.
