Journey fit
Parliamentary text search is classic Idea-phase discovery when validating whether a policy-tracking or research agent is technically feasible. Research subphase captures early investigation of what MPs asked, what motions exist, and how often topics recur before you build ingestion pipelines.
How it compares
MCP parliamentary search connector, not a full RAG pipeline skill or lobbying CRM.
