  Use this when someone wants to buy a used car in Japan, or asks for a used car that fits a budget, a model year, mileage or a manual transmission. To narrow to a specific car, first find its generation with search_vehicles and pass model_id (or series_id for any generation of a series). Returns the cars that dealers list on car-gene.com and that are on sale now: {filters, sort, total, used_cars, next_offset}. Each car has model (the generation it is, with chassis_code and its page url, or null when the dealer did not tie it to one; then read maker_name and car_name), grade, minor_change_name, total_price_yen (the total payment to drive it away, including the dealer's fees; quote this price, never price_yen alone), price_yen (the body price), first_registration_year and month, mileage_km, inspection_year and month (the vehicle inspection is valid until then), repair_history (true when the car has had frame damage repaired), transmission, shop (the dealer's name, prefecture and city) and the url of its page on car-gene.com, where the photos, details and the inquiry form are. Both prices null means the price is on request. Budget filters use total_price_yen, so cars with the price on request are left out of them. The order is sort only. Cars are cut to fit the response size; when next_offset is not null, call again with offset set to it. Empty used_cars means nothing matched among the cars listed on car-gene.com, not that no such car is for sale elsewhere.

• 2026-10-10search_shopsadded

  Use this when someone looks for a place in Japan to have a car service done, such as a vehicle inspection (shaken), a self-service or hand car wash, a coating, a wheel alignment, or fitting coilovers, near a city or a point. Do not use it for car history or parts; use the other skills. Returns only shops confirmed to offer the service, nearest first, within radius_km of the origin: {service: {code, name, conditions}, origin, radius_km, require, total, shops, next_offset}. Each shop has name, shop_type, address, distance_km, availability (available, or conditional when it depends on the car), price_min, price_max, price_note, confirmed (the conditions checked for this shop: a yes_no condition with available true or false, a number condition such as an inspection fee with value and unit) and the url of its public page, where the booking link and sources are. A condition missing from confirmed is not researched yet, never absent. service.conditions lists each condition with its type; pass yes_no codes in require to keep only shops confirmed to meet them. The order is distance only. Empty shops means nothing matched among the shops confirmed so far, not that no such shop exists; widen radius_km.

• 2026-10-10check_part_fitmentadded

  Use this when the user asks whether an aftermarket part (wheel, coilover, muffler, brake pad, intake and so on) fits a specific car generation, or which parts are confirmed to fit it. Pass the model_id of that generation from search_vehicles. Returns {model, url, total, parts, next_offset}. parts lists only the products that a published fitment table, such as the maker's own, names as fit or conditional for this generation; products not tied to any vehicle and fitment guessed from bolt pattern or size are never included, and a size is left out at any position where the table notes it sticks out of the fender or needs bodywork. Each part has name, manufacturer, part_number, part_key, description, official_url and variants: the sizes or versions that fit, each with specification, status (fit or conditional), conditions (for conditional, the notes of the fitment table as written, such as positions, tires, production period or remarks; tell the user about them), list_price_yen (the maker's list price in yen, tax included, for one unit as the maker sells it, and the unit differs by part: one wheel for wheels, so a car takes four; the whole car's kit for suspension such as coilovers; one axle, left and right, for brake calipers and brake pads; for other parts the item as the maker lists it; null when not listed), wheel dimensions when the part is a wheel, and other attributes. url is this generation's page on car-gene.com to show the user; it is null when the generation has no confirmed fitment. The response has no seller prices and no purchase links. Narrow with part_key and query. Parts are cut to fit the response size; when next_offset is not null, call again with offset set to it. An empty parts list means nothing matched among the confirmed fitments; the part may not be researched yet for this generation, so never say it does not fit. Do not use this for the history, specs or developers of a car (use get_vehicle), or to find a garage that installs parts.

  Find series by name, maker name, or a generation's chassis code. Series names match by normalized substring (width, case, kana), maker names by prefix, chassis codes by substring of the code as written (a slash-joined code is one string, not split). Returns {query, total, hits: [{series, maker, matched_models}], next_offset} where each series and model carries its public page url; pass the ids in the hits to the other skills. Hits are ranked and cut to fit the response size; when next_offset is not null, call again with offset set to it for the rest. Empty hits means nothing matched the query.

Series names match by normalized substring (width, case, kana), maker names by prefix, chassis codes by substring of the code as written (a slash-joined code is one string, not split). A generation matched by its name or chassis code is listed in matched_models. Returns {query, total, hits: [{series, maker, matched_models}], next_offset} where each series and model carries its public page url; pass the ids in the hits to the other skills.

  Get the sales figures of a series. Returns {series_id, url, figures, cells, region_totals, coverage, lifetime}. figures are the rows as published, each with units, the source's own wording, the period, source_url and a verbatim source_excerpt. cells are the grid a figure may be summed into, one per series, country and calendar year; a null units on a cell means the sources disagree, never zero sold. region_totals sum years within one country only, so never add across countries or add a parent region to its children. coverage rows are the blanks that were checked and found empty, with the reason. lifetime rows are cumulative or per-generation totals that must not be added to the grid. A model_id narrows figures only, since allocating a year to a generation needs the whole series. An empty list means not researched yet, never zero.

  Get the sales figures of a series. Without region_code it returns the overview {series_id, url, region_totals, lifetime, coverage, regions}; with region_code it returns that region year by year {series_id, url, region_code, region_totals, coverage, cells, figures, next_year_from}. region_totals sum years within one country only, so never add across countries or add a parent region to its children. lifetime rows are cumulative or per-generation totals that must not be added to the grid. With a model_id, region_totals and lifetime are those of that generation; otherwise region_totals are the series totals and lifetime is the whole series. coverage rows are the blanks that were checked and found empty, with the reason; a region with coverage rows and no figures was researched, not skipped. regions lists the region codes that have figures or checked blanks, with the first and last year; pass one of them as region_code, since any other code is an error. cells are the grid a figure may be summed into, one per series, country, calendar year and metric; a null units on a cell means the sources disagree, never zero sold. figures are the rows as published, each with units, the source's own wording, the period, source_url and a verbatim source_excerpt; match them to cells by region_code, year and metric. A model_id narrows figures to that generation, while cells stay series-wide because allocating a year to a generation needs the whole series. Years are cut to fit the response size, never splitting a year; when next_year_from is not null, call again with year_from set to it. An empty list means not researched yet, never zero.
