Instead of digging through endless search results or bookmarking dozens of different news sites, you can just ask your agent to find specific information. It's a huge time saver for anyone who needs to know what's happening on the ground in a specific region or what resources are available for a particular crisis. You'll find it's much easier to get the facts when your agent can pull from a structured database of reports and disaster trackers. When you use this through the Vinkius catalog, you get a direct line to information from UN agencies, NGOs, and government bodies. It's about getting the right data for your research or operational planning without the usual manual headache of filtering through noise. You can find specific flood assessments in a certain country or see who's hiring in the disaster relief space without the extra effort. It turns a complex manual search into a simple conversation, letting you focus on your actual work instead of hunting for links. ## Tools ### get_countries Get country names and ISO codes.
