  • Not measured
    Fast (p50)

    Median latency 607 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 607 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 3000 ms. Need at least 20 samples.

    1 of 1 attempts returned a tool list in 30 days (100%). The bar is 99%. Need at least 30 samples.

  • Not measured
    Stable tool list

    Fewer than two successful probes in 30 days, so tool-list stability is not measured.

Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

  • Not measured
    Standard auth

    Auth is not required, so the OAuth metadata check does not apply.

  • Fail
    Source repo linked

    No repository URL is on file.

  • Not measured
    Repo owner matches

    This namespace is not an io.github login, so the owner comparison does not apply.

Capabilities

Tools 3

classify_hts

Find the US Harmonized Tariff Schedule classification for a product. Returns candidate HTS codes with their official descriptions and base duty rates. Use when the user wants the code itself rather than a cost. Not charged: it does not use a duty lookup.

Discovered
landed_cost

Calculate US import duty and landed cost estimates. Give hts_code when you know it and this returns the calculated base duty and trade actions (Section 301, Section 232, Section 338, AD/CVD and others), estimated duty, fees and import cost. When estimate_status is partial, part of the duty is undetermined (AD/CVD deposits, or a per-unit duty that needs a quantity) and the amounts are provisional; convey that the estimate is incomplete, and read duty_total_bound for whether the total is a minimum. Give product instead and it returns candidate HTS codes WITHOUT pricing, because the classification decides the duty and guessing it produces confidently wrong numbers: confirm the right code with the user, then call again with hts_code. The candidate step is not charged, and neither is the same lookup repeated within ten minutes.

Discovered
policy_changes_since

List US trade policy changes Gateway has published since a given date: new tariff actions, rate changes, effective dates and expirations, each with its official source. Also returns, under upcoming, earlier entries for changes announced or proposed but not yet in force. Use to answer "what changed recently" or "what is coming". Not charged: it does not use a duty lookup.
