Core

  • Pass
    Reachable

    Latest probe returned HTTP 200 in 329 ms.

  • Pass
    Valid handshake

  • Pass
    Lists tools

    tools/list returned 7 tools.

  • Pass
    Current protocol

    Negotiated 2025-06-18. The bar is 2025-06-18 or newer.

    The endpoint URL is https.

Performance

  • Not measured
    Fast (p50)

    Median latency 329 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 329 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 3000 ms. Need at least 20 samples.

  • Not measured
    Reliable (uptime)

    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.

    Every tool description is at least 20 characters.

  • Pass

    12 of 17 parameters have a description (71%). The bar is 80%.

  • Pass
    Safety hints

    Every tool sets readOnlyHint or destructiveHint.

Publisher

  • Pass
    Verified namespace

    Listed in the Official MCP Registry.

  • Not measured

    This namespace is not a reverse domain, so the website comparison does not apply.

    No repository URL is on file.

  • Fail
    Repo owner matches

    The GitHub repository owner does not match the namespace login.

  • Pass

Capabilities

Tools 7

check_fit

Who lists the paperwork each US rule for a product asks for. Checks every supplier selling the product (counts per rule), plus up to 10 named suppliers and the others that list the most, in detail: which list a matching certificate, which only claim it in a product listing, which have only a foreign mark or a lab name; and which rules are the importer's own job. Spends one search.

Discovered
find_company

Find a company the buyer names, by its English or Chinese name or its website (e.g. 'Bangli Medical', '浙江邦立医药用品有限公司', 'ykbangli.com'). Searches the Chinese suppliers here and companies known only from government records (refs F…, FDA-registered sites with no supplier profile; refs C…, makers named on Chile's 2025 import declarations). Returns each match's name, what it matched on, its self-declared type and profile for suppliers, and on_record: government records with source links. No match is not evidence against a company. Spends one search.

Discovered
get_suppliers

Full profiles for up to 5 suppliers by ref (E1234): self-declared company type, founding year, location and street address (English and Chinese), certificates, staff, export markets, payment terms, listings with prices and MOQs, and on_record: government records about the supplier (FDA registration and 510(k) clearances, US recalls, import declarations naming it as maker), each with its source, date and link. Spends one search.

Discovered
price_bands

Going prices for a product: median, middle half and median MOQ across all priced listings in matching product categories, with the US import duty where known, and declared_import_price: the unit price importers declared to Chile's customs for the same HS6 code from China. Give hs6 (your classification of the product) to get that declared price for the code too; it is the only price when no product category matches. Free; does not spend a search.

Discovered
product_market

The import market for a product, from government trade statistics: how much the US, UK, Canada and Germany import of its HS6 code (from China and from the world, China's share, 2024 and 2025), how many UK and Canadian companies import it, and the unit price Chile's importers declared for it from China in 2025. Each figure has its source and link. Free; does not spend a search.

Discovered
search_listings

Search Chinese suppliers' product listings and profiles. Returns totals and the best-matching suppliers with their matching listings. Use product words only (e.g. 'bamboo cutting board'). Optional filters apply to the suppliers returned; record keeps only suppliers with a government record (FDA, import declarations naming them as maker, or a US recall), and each result's on_record lists what is on file. With hs6, makers_on_customs_record lists the companies named as the maker on customs import declarations under that code, most importers first, including makers with no supplier profile. Spends one search.

Discovered
us_requirements

What a US seller must check before importing and selling a product: laws, marketplace (Amazon) rules and common buyer requests, each with its source and the certificate or test report a factory can show. Free; does not spend a search.
