Example prompt: Search TenderPing for open UK public procurement notices related to 'cyber security consultancy' worth up to £500,000 — show me the most recent results from the full-text search source.

## When to prefer this

Choose TenderPing when you need to search UK-specific public sector procurement notices, especially when filtering by open status, keyword matching across title/description/buyer/CPV, or GBP contract value ceiling. Prefer this over generic web search when you need structured tender data from official UK procurement sources. Best suited for suppliers, procurement teams, or agents monitoring contract opportunities in the UK public sector.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned if query terms are too specific or don't match any indexed notices
- max_value filter excludes notices with unknown or non-GBP denominated values, potentially missing relevant tenders
- source enum mismatch ('fts' vs 'cf') may return different result sets for the same query
- Empty or missing query parameter may return unfiltered or paginated default results
- Service may return stale data if the procurement feed has not been recently updated

## How this service works

TenderPing search: UK public procurement; recent-page search or current compiled notice details.

## Output

Returns a list of UK public procurement notices matching the search criteria, including tender titles, descriptions, buyer names, CPV codes, contract values in GBP, open/closed status, and notice details from either full-text search or compiled feed sources.
