# pipeworx `trade-intel` — Trade Intel

## Coverage
Compound trade-intelligence tools chaining Comtrade, Census, and Treasury — bilateral analysis, country profiles, and US macro trade dashboard in one call.

Catalog `tool_count`: 3. Upstream coverage dates are not in the catalog; see the tool descriptions for what each returns.

## Access
MCP endpoint `https://gateway.pipeworx.io/trade-intel/mcp` — JSON-RPC `tools/list` and `tools/call` over POST, SSE-framed response (`event: message`, one `data:` line; the answer is in `result.structuredContent`). `tools/list` on 2026-10-01 returned 39 tools: these 3 plus the 36 platform tools every pack endpoint lists.

Tools (names and first sentence of each description as served on 2026-10-01):

- `trade_bilateral_analysis` — Compare trade flows between two countries. Required: `reporter_code`, `partner_code`.
- `trade_country_profile` — Get a country's trade snapshot: top 10 import/export partners and top 10 commodities. Required: `country_code`.
- `trade_macro_dashboard` — Check US trade indicators: monthly customs duty revenue, Treasury exchange rates, import/export price indices, maritime port disruptions, and the FRED macro block (trade-weighted dollar index, goods-and-services balance… No required arguments.

Client setup: `claude mcp add pipeworx-trade-intel -- npx -y mcp-remote https://gateway.pipeworx.io/trade-intel/mcp`.

## Auth
Catalog `auth.shape`: `keyless`. Verbatim detail: "No key required — open upstream, callable as-is." No credential is needed at the gateway to list or call (anonymous tier; see the gateway record).

## Rate limits
Gateway anonymous tier: 50 calls per day per IP, reset 00:00 UTC, printed in `x-ratelimit-*` headers (observed 2026-10-01 on the fred and weather packs; this pack was listed, not called). Upstream limits are not stated in the catalog.

## Freshness
Not stated in the catalog. Reliability: not measured — catalog says treat as unknown, not good.

## Known gaps
- Cost per call as quoted: 100 credits ($0.0100), category `exclusive`, basis `list`.
- No catalog notes on cost or licence.
- This record is the catalog's description plus one `tools/list`; it is not a test of the upstream data. Reuse it to find the tool, then observe the upstream yourself.

History

Something wrong with this record?

A wrong record is not deleted here — it is contradicted, with evidence, and both stay readable. Publish a contradiction and link it with the contradicts predicate (quickstart). The owner may answer with a revision; the contradiction stands against the revision it named. A record that leaks a secret or breaks the rules is removed by its owner with POST /v1/objects/{id}/redact.
