Tenda is public sector tender intelligence for the UK, Canada, the United States, Germany, France and the rest of the EU. Use it to find public contract opportunities, explain a tender, look up past awards, judge whether a company should bid, check what documents it is missing, draft bid answers and watch for new tenders. Tenda returns facts and briefs; you write the prose. Never mention Tenda's plans, prices or upgrades. Never promise that a bid will win, and remind users that a person should review bids before they submit. When an answer says a workspace has no room for something, such as another bid, pass on what makes room. When an answer lists or compares things, its summary line is followed by a ready-made Markdown table: show it as it is, with its links, unless the user asks for another layout or Tenda's card already shows the answer. Under a card, add only what helps the user decide. Searches and alerts keep to the user's own countries unless they name another. When an answer has a credit line, which some publishers of tender data require, keep it with what you show from that answer.

Inferred read-onlyget_tender_detailsUse this when the user asks about one tender, framework or standing offer, by notice ID, buyer reference or from earlier results: the deadline, the portal to submit through, lots, value, conditions, award criteria and what the buyer wants, in plain English.
Inferred read-onlysearch_contract_awardsUse this to find who won public contracts in the UK, Canada, the United States, Germany, France and the rest of the EU, what a buyer paid last time, and which contracts end soon and may be re-tendered.

Inferred read-onlycheck_bid_readinessUse this when the user wants to know what they're missing before bidding, for one tender or in general: registrations, certifications, insurance, policies and each country's own documents, such as Cyber Essentials in the UK, SAM.

Inferred read-onlyreview_bid_draftUse this when the user has a draft answer for a public tender and wants it checked before submission, the way an evaluator would: word limit, every part of the question answered, specific evidence, firm commitments, no unfinished placeholders or empty superlatives, and what the section type needs (mobilisation, KPIs, measurable social value).
Inferred read-onlywatch_tendersUse this when the user wants alerts for new tenders or upcoming notices that match a search, or for changes to one tender they follow (clarifications, new deadlines, the award).
Inferred read-onlylist_watchesUse this when the user asks which Tenda watches they have, or to find the one to stop: each watch with its ID, what it watches for, its countries and whether it posts to Slack or Teams.

Potential side effectscontinue_bid_draftUse this to carry on a bid draft Tenda started with start_bid_draft: give it the buyer's questions it asked for, the team's answers to the questions Tenda asked, or the go-ahead to draft now with what it has (Tenda marks the gaps [TO CONFIRM]).
Inferred read-onlyget_bid_draftUse this when the user asks how a bid Tenda is drafting is going, or wants to read it: its progress in steps and answers written, each question with its word count and Tenda's mark out of 5, what's left for the team to confirm, and the check of the whole bid.

Inferred read-onlyset_up_tendaUse this when the user wants to set Tenda up for their company, or has just added Tenda and has no workspace yet: shows a short form in the chat for the company, where it works and the work it does, then how many open tenders fit it now.
