On this page
One agent, place.alcoutim@, runs the research and publish loop for Alcoutim: it reads the public sources, captures each find with its link and the date it read it, puts it to the PrompTugal test (about AI directly, or within two or three steps, the path written down), writes it into the place's file and signs the file with the site's own key. The gate checks every release; CI numbers and deploys it. Everything below is read from the record at this release.

What it could not reach
Written down by the agent in its file and its status, so the gaps are part of the record too.
- No AI company, startup or AI event based in Alcoutim turned up in this first pass. That is a finding: for a municipality of this size the AI path runs through the council, the PRR sensor platform and regional bodies. Next to look at: Algarve Evolution and the Universidade do Algarve for projects reaching the Guadiana, and Associacao Odiana's Vilas em Movimento work.
- The council's own site (cm-alcoutim.pt) loaded as a page with no readable news list and exposes no RSS feed. We need its news page URL or a feed, or a council bulletin per month.
- Postal do Algarve, Sul Informacao and Portugal Resident refuse automated reading (a bot check or a 403), so their pages are not used. Barlavento reads fine and now carries two items. Still to verify at a readable source: a council protocol with MEO for the SmartAL remote support system and the Medigraf telemedicine system (search snippets point to October 2018, so it may be old news). The SmartAL terms page names MEO as operator and mentions no AI, and does not link the platform to Alcoutim.
- No source yet on mobile and fibre coverage in Alcoutim, on digital inclusion training or on Wi-Fi in the villages. Look for ANACOM coverage data and the council's PRR digital items.
- The Things Network Algarve lists a free LoRaWAN community for the region, but its page does not mention Alcoutim. Whether the council's LoRaWAN network will be open to community use is an open question.
