Maps a product name or description to Harmonized System / HTS customs classification codes — the lookup customs brokers, import/export compliance teams, and trade-automation agents need before filing a shipment or estimating duty. Returns ranked HS/HTS candidates. Pay-per-call via x402 (USDC on Base): $0.03/call, no account or API key. tools/list and /openapi.json are free for discovery.

Tool access control
Enable or disable individual tools per connector, so you decide what your agents can and cannot do.
Managed credentials
Glama handles OAuth flows, token storage, and automatic rotation, so credentials never expire on your clients.
Usage analytics
See which tools your agents call, how often, and when, so you can understand usage patterns and catch anomalies.
Average 4/5 across 1 of 1 tools scored.
Only one tool exists, so there is no possibility of confusion between tools.
With a single tool, naming consistency is trivially maintained.
One tool is borderline for a server focused on classification; it covers the core function but feels thin for typical MCP servers.
The tool provides detailed classification but lacks batch processing or code listing, leaving minor gaps in the surface.
classifyAInspectClassify a product description into candidate HS/HTS10 tariff codes. Deterministic BM25 retrieval over the USITC HTS schedule with heading-agreement boosting, returning the full parent-chain description, general duty rate, and a score-gap confidence per candidate. Not a customs ruling — always includes a disclaimer to verify with a licensed broker.

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Given no annotations, the description effectively discloses behaviors: deterministic (BM25), heading-agreement boosting, and the inclusion of a disclaimer. It does not explicitly state read-only idempotency, but the operation is clearly a query with no side effects. The description adds value beyond the empty annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is two sentences, front-loaded with the core purpose. Every sentence adds value: the first states the action and method, the second provides output details and a crucial disclaimer. No redundancy or excessive detail.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema, no annotations, and only two parameters, the description covers the tool's purpose, algorithm, and output fields. However, parameter semantics are missing, which reduces completeness. For a query tool with this complexity, it is adequate but not excellent.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 0%, so the description must explain parameters. While 'description' is obvious, 'options.top_k' and 'options.origin_hint' are not elaborated. The description mentions 'score-gap confidence' but doesn't link to parameters. This is a significant gap that could hinder correct invocation.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool's function: 'Classify a product description into candidate HS/HTS10 tariff codes.' It specifies the retrieval method (deterministic BM25), the data source (USITC HTS schedule), and the output fields (parent-chain description, duty rate, score-gap confidence). The disclaimer distinguishes it from a customs ruling, clarifying its non-authoritative nature.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explains what the tool does and includes a disclaimer that it is not a customs ruling, implying verification is needed. It specifies the algorithm and data source, giving context for when to trust the results. However, it does not explicitly mention when not to use the tool or suggest alternatives, but with no sibling tools, this is acceptable.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
