In-chat cards (MCP Apps)
Four tools (search_senior_care, list_providers, get_provider, get_city_summary) declare the UI resource ui://laterstages/results.html in _meta.ui.resourceUri. Hosts that support MCP Apps show results as provider cards with Medicare stars and a link to each full record. Other clients get the same data as text.
All tools are read-only. Answers include the provider's Later Stages URL and the date of the underlying data. See the Later Stages API docs for the same data over plain HTTP.
