Tools of tvmaze-mcp-server
	Description		Read-only	Idempotent	Open world
`tvmaze_get_cast`List the credited cast of a show with the characters they play, optionally with crew; or list the guest cast of one episode, optionally with its guest crew such as the director and writers. Results are paged: cast rows come first, then crew rows, and each page splits them back into cast and crew. The source records no recurring-versus-guest distinction on a show’s cast list, so a name’s absence from it does not mean the performer never appeared — check an episode’s guest cast for that.

Not declared	Yes	Yes	Yes
`tvmaze_get_episodes`List a show’s episodes with air times, runtimes, and synopses. Pass a season number to list one season, which is the cheaper path and the usual one; pass air_date to list the episodes dated to one day, the direct path to a single night of a daily show; omit both to walk the whole run, which is paged because a long-running series returns hundreds of episodes. Specials are excluded unless include_specials is set, and the number left out is reported.	List a show’s episodes with air times, runtimes, and synopses.

`tvmaze_get_next_episode`Report when a show’s next episode airs, converted to a viewer timezone. Accepts a TVmaze id or a show title — a title is resolved with a stricter single-match search than tvmaze_search_shows uses. A show with no scheduled next episode is reported as a miss carrying its most recent episode, which is the normal state for a series between seasons.

`tvmaze_get_person`Search people by name to return candidates, then select a person_id to list their cast, guest, or crew credits. Name searches never select a person automatically. Credits preserve source order and page at 50 rows by default, up to 250 per call; show_id chains to tvmaze_get_show or tvmaze_get_episodes, and guest episode_id chains to tvmaze_get_cast with scope "episode".

`tvmaze_get_schedule`List television episodes airing on a given date. Scope "linear" covers broadcast and cable networks in one country and can include timed releases on local streaming services. Scope "streaming" covers global services when no country is given, or that country’s local streaming services when one is. Scope "all" merges all three feeds for the selected country. The source caches schedule data for up to an hour, so a same-day listing can lag a late change.	List television episodes airing on a given date.

`tvmaze_get_show`Fetch a television show by its TVmaze id: full profile, weekly broadcast slot, season list, and the previous and next episode when the source has them. This is the entry point for an id returned by tvmaze_search_shows or tvmaze_lookup_show. For the episode list itself use tvmaze_get_episodes, and for credits use tvmaze_get_cast.

`tvmaze_lookup_show`Resolve a television show from its id in another catalog — IMDb, TheTVDB, or TVRage — and return the matching TVmaze profile. Use this to cross a show id from another source into TVmaze. A show absent from TVmaze is reported as a miss with guidance, not an error.

`tvmaze_search_shows`Search television shows by title and return up to 10 matches, each with its network or streaming service, production status, genres, rating, and ids in other catalogs. Matching is fuzzy, so small typos still resolve. The result set is hard-capped at 10 by the source and cannot be paged — narrow the title to reach an eleventh match. To go the other way, from an IMDb or TheTVDB id to a show, use tvmaze_lookup_show.
