Orbid certs and specs
Split numbers from narrative. Specs are structured; certificates-as-stories live in knowledge.
Gate
Need Orbid MCP query_structured_specs and query_knowledge (names may be prefixed). Missing / 401 → stop. Connect https://app.orbid.dev/mcp. Do not invent ISO/CE numbers.
Which tool
| Ask | Tool |
|---|---|
| Numeric / range / “is it 12.1 inch” / listed cert codes on the datasheet | query_structured_specs mode=lookup with productId or productQuery |
| “Do we have ISO 13485 for Kenya”, past bids, regulation notes | query_knowledge with query (optional country, category, sessionId) |
If they named a model and you need a UUID, search_product_catalog first.
Prefer specs for parameter values. Prefer knowledge for process / market / “last time we bid”. If both are empty, say the org has no hit — do not quote another company’s certificates.
Do not
- Treat
query_knowledgehits as live spec values. - Fill Excel or run match unless they asked (then orbid-match).
- Pass org_id, workspaceId, or skipAutoFill in arguments.
