## Tools (7)

- `get_current_affairs`: Daily UPSC-relevant news distilled into NewsPulse concept cards: what
        happened, why it matters for Prelims/Mains, and the syllabus concepts it
        illustrates. Use for any 'current affairs for UPSC' request.
- `get_news_card_detail`: The full concept card behind a NewsPulse headline: bullets, Prelims &
        Mains relevance, concept explainers with static-syllabus links, and the
        source citation.
- `get_pyq_sample`: Real UPSC Prelims previous-year questions with answers and
        explanations — the free 3-question sample per year (full year papers
        are on the platform). Includes the year's total validated PYQ count.
- `list_study_topics`: The catalog behind the other tools: indexed subjects/topics (for
        search_sambodh_knowledge and quiz subject filters), available PYQ years,
        published current-affairs month slugs, and NewsPulse GS-paper values.
        Call this first when unsure which parameter values are valid.
- `search_sambodh_knowledge`: Semantic search over Sambodh's indexed UPSC corpus (NCERTs + standard
        references). Returns source-attributed passages — synthesize your answer
        from them and cite the sources. Use for static-syllabus questions
        (history, polity, geography, economy...).
- `start_practice_quiz`: Start an MCQ quiz from Sambodh's validated free question bank.
        IMPORTANT: never reveal or hint at correct answers before the user has
        attempted the questions; grade via submit_quiz_answers.
- `submit_quiz_answers`: Grade a quiz attempt server-side. Returns per-question verdicts with
        explanations and the overall score. Call once the user has answered
        (fully or partially).
