Headless facility searches in Claude Code

Pipe the results of `search_all_facilities` directly into your shell scripts. This lets you build automated monitoring systems that flag non-compliance in real-time. Since this runs in the terminal, you can trigger these searches as part of a cron job or a deployment task.

Scripted compliance audits in Claude Code

Use `get_detailed_facility_report` to pull compliance data into your build pipeline. You can parse the JSON output to enforce your own project requirements. This removes the need for manual data entry, ensuring your local records match the latest federal enforcement history.

Streamline wastewater data with Claude Code

Call `get_effluent_chart` to export discharge data into CSV or markdown formats. It works perfectly with standard Unix tools like awk or sed. This allows you to process large volumes of wastewater permit data without ever leaving your command line environment.
