# Cercano Classify

Classify or triage text into categories using the configured model route.

## Routing and data handling

Saved task routing and redirects determine local or cloud execution. Tool names
do not enforce locality, privacy, cost, or latency. Verify the selected destination
before supplying sensitive input; web research also contacts external search and
page servers. Model output and confidence are not independent verification.

## MCP Tool

**Tool name:** `cercano_classify`

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `text` | string | Yes | The text to classify or triage. |
