Get category overview
Read the overview of a published destination category, with its identity and page freshness, to understand the scope of the category’s place selection.
Category pages can use an inherited global or ancestor configuration. A destination's custom navigation does not remove the global category URLs: those pages remain available alongside custom category pages and resolve places inside the requested destination. Country category paths, such as /en/destinations/cz/places/accommodation/, use the same category tools. Read the selected page's metadata rather than assuming its category appears in the destination navigation.
What it returns
This reads the current category page only. It does not search for categories or places across GoVisit.
For the full current contract and linked context, see the WebMCP manifest and the WebMCP overview.

}Send a JSON POST to https://govisit.ai/api/tools/v1/get_category_overview. See the HTTP API guide for shared conventions.
Use the pathname from an actual canonical GoVisit link, including its language prefix. The sample page path illustrates the shape; replace it with your selected published page. HTTP inputs add pagePath to the browser arguments. No cookies, browser session or inferred location are required. Queries, fragments, origins and cache-refresh flags are rejected. Language comes from the page path.

Successful results match the browser tool's published page projection, including its freshness and scope limits. The adapter uses GoVisit's existing page caches; it does not provide a fresh live availability check. An absent page returns 404; an unsupported section returns 400; unavailable or malformed page context returns 503. See Reliability for errors and shared request limits.

}After installing GoVisit skills, ask your assistant to use govisit-get-category-overview. The skill calls the GoVisit HTTP API.
Open a GoVisit destination category page, such as its hotels or restaurants page, and copy its link.
Use GoVisit to read the overview of [category page URL]. Summarize what this page covers and include its source link.
