Available tools 3

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

cpsc
cpsc_get_recall
Full detail for a single CPSC recall by recall number. Returns the complete record: hazard description, remedy instructions, all product variants, incident/injury reports, images, and the official CPSC recall page URL. Use after cpsc_search_recalls or cpsc_get_recent to get the full picture on a specific recall. CPSC jurisdiction: consumer products only — food, vehicles, drugs, and pesticides are covered by other agencies.
cpsc_get_recent
Fetch the most recent CPSC consumer product recalls, ordered newest-first. Use for "what's been recalled lately?" or a product safety feed. Always applies a date window (default: last 30 days) — without a date filter the API returns all 9,800+ records. Page past limit with offset: narrowing days cannot page, because the window is anchored to today and shrinking it drops the oldest records rather than advancing past the newest. CPSC jurisdiction: consumer products only — food, vehicles, drugs, and pesticides are covered by other agencies.
cpsc_search_recalls
Search consumer product recalls from the CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) database. Covers toys, electronics, furniture, appliances, children's products, tools, and clothing — everything under CPSC jurisdiction. Does NOT cover food/drugs (FDA), motor vehicles/tires (NHTSA), boats (USCG), or pesticides (EPA). All filter fields are optional substring matches that combine with AND. Start with title_search when you have a product in hand — CPSC titles carry the brand, product, and hazard phrasing. For hazard-type filtering ("fire", "choking", "burn"), use hazard_search, which matches hazard text, product names, and remedy instructions in one pass. When manufacturer returns no results, try importer, retailer, or distributor: many recalls list one of those as the primary responsible org. Page past limit with offset — total_found and has_more say where the window sits in the full result set. Use cpsc_get_recall with a recall_number from results to retrieve the full record including complete description, all images, and incident reports.
