## Capabilities

- [Get bulletin](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/aer-ca/energy-regulator-decisions-directives-notices/get_bulletin): One AER bulletin by number (`2026-42`, `Bulletin 2026-42` or the bulletin page URL): title, subtitle, release date, PDF link, body text, the directives it links to and every link in the body. Older bulletins published under the `aer-bulletin-YYYY-NN` slug are tried when the plain slug is missing.
- [Get directive](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/aer-ca/energy-regulator-decisions-directives-notices/get_directive): One AER directive by number (e.g. `056`, `007-1`, `Directive 001`, or the directive page URL): title, subtitle, release date, effective date, PDF link, the body text, the bulletin it was released with and every link in the body. Read from the directive node on www.aer.ca.
- [Get public notice](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/aer-ca/energy-regulator-decisions-directives-notices/get_public_notice): One Public Notice of Application (PNoA) by AER application number: applicant, activity description, project name, authorization group, affected ATS locations, notice issue date, statement-of-concern due date, notice expiry, the applicant's office address and whether the notice is marked expedited. Read from the static notice body on static.webapps.aer.ca that the webapps.aer.ca/pnoa details page embeds. The company contact person's name, phone and e-mail are deliberately not returned; `details_url` leads to them.
- [Get published decision](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/aer-ca/energy-regulator-decisions-directives-notices/get_published_decision): One Publication of Decision (POD) by AER application number: the authorization decision (Approved, Denied, Approved in part, Withdrawn, Closed, ...), its date, the decision document link, plus the application's applicant, activity description, affected locations and notice dates. Read from the static decision body on static.webapps.aer.ca that the webapps.aer.ca/pod details page embeds. The company contact person's name, phone and e-mail are deliberately not returned.
- [List publications](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/aer-ca/energy-regulator-decisions-directives-notices/list_publications): One page of an AER publication listing (a Drupal views table): directives, bulletins, hearing decisions, requests for regulatory appeal decisions, participatory and procedural decisions, notices, statistical (ST) reports or news releases. Rows carry the title cell (with its link, often straight to the PDF), the row date (ISO, from the view's `<time>` or the printed `Month D, YYYY`) and every column by its header label. Optional keyword filter and sort; pages are zero-based (10 or 20 rows per page depending on the listing). A keyword that matches nothing returns zero rows with the site's own `No matching records found` notice.
- [Site search](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/aer-ca/energy-regulator-decisions-directives-notices/site_search): Full-text search of www.aer.ca through the site's AddSearch index (the same backend as the search box, public site key): title, URL, meta description, highlighted snippet, index timestamp, document type (html or pdf) and path categories per hit, with the total hit count (capped at 10000 by AddSearch). Pages are 1-based with a configurable size up to 50.
