Available tools 6

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

crypto
crypto_stress_record
Labelled crypto stress episodes (Black Thursday 2020, Terra, FTX, the SVB/USDC weekend, the Oct-2025 liquidation cascade, the Ethena unwind) replayed point-in-time against the dollar-funding board. External wrecks show transmission; crypto-native wrecks show the board correctly staying quiet. Use for any 'does TradFi funding stress reach crypto' question, grounded in the record.
data
data_health
Freshness, provenance, and fault status for every underlying series (FRED, NY Fed, OFR, Treasury). Call this to confirm the board is current before relying on a reading.
funding
funding_stress_now
The live money-market funding-stress reading: a 0-100 composite index, the regime (CALM/EROSION/STRAIN/STRESS), per-component decomposition, the market-stress 'Tell', and any data faults. Ask this whenever an analysis touches US dollar funding, repo, reserves, the Fed's balance sheet, or liquidity conditions.
historical
historical_analogs
The historical days most similar to today's funding conditions, and how often those analogs led to a stress event, plus a novelty flag for whether today has any close precedent. Use to ground a 'what usually happens from here' question in real history.
institutional
institutional_flows
Hedge-fund / pension / sovereign positioning nowcast from public prints: the Treasury basis-trade size proxy (CFTC leveraged-fund net short, with a funding-fragility flag), asset-manager duration demand, foreign-official custody flows (H.4.1), a mixed-frequency fused positioning index with uncertainty bands, and how self-exciting stress events currently are (Hawkes branching ratio). Weekly cadence, point-in-time. Ask this when a question involves hedge fund leverage, the basis trade, pension duration bids, or sovereigns buying/selling Treasuries. Built from free public data.
proof
proof_backtest
The backtest scoreboard, stated honestly: recall and precision with 95% confidence intervals over labelled funding events, an orthogonal robustness test, every named episode (hits and misses), and the caveats. Use to judge how much to trust the readings.
