Tools have disappeared from this server
A tool that vanishes takes a piece of your agent with it, and the change arrives silently. Watch this server and every such change lands in your inbox.

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on.
If a tool disappears, we record the date.
company
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.
fit
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.
listings
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.
price
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.
product
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.
requirements
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.
suppliers
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.

Trade Intelligence — questions
Answers built from our own checks of this server.
What can Trade Intelligence do?
It exposes 7 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: check_fit, find_company, get_suppliers, price_bands, product_market, search_listings and 1 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README.
How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Trade Intelligence working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 191 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
Did Trade Intelligence ever remove tools?
Yes. get_exhibitors is no longer exposed — we recorded the date each one disappeared. A tool vanishing usually means a breaking change for anything that depended on it.
How do I connect Trade Intelligence?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Trade Intelligence need an API key?
No. Trade Intelligence completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 7 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Trade Intelligence?
It answers our handshake in 191 ms on average, which is faster than 70% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
