Live UK public-sector tenders from Find a Tender and Contracts Finder in one call. Returns the top 10 matching notices as one-paragraph plain-English briefs with buyer, value, deadline, CPV codes (honest null when the notice carries none) and the official notice link. Searches a 6-hourly refreshed index - no signup with either portal needed.
Costs $0.05 USDC per call (x402, Base mainnet). Returns: result = { total_matched, returned, notices[] of { ocid, title, buyer, value, stage, published, deadline, days_remaining, region, cpv, summary, source{name, notice_url} }, excluded{} } - excluded{} reports notices honest-nulled out by cpv/region/value/deadline filters.
