Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| list_datasetsA | List all available CMS healthcare datasets with metadata including source, update frequency, row count, key fields, and available filters. Always call this first to understand what data is available. |
| get_schemaA | Return the full field schema (names, types, descriptions, examples) for a specific CMS dataset. Use this before get_data to understand available fields and filter parameters. |
| get_dataA | Retrieve filtered records from a CMS dataset. Supports filtering by date range, geography, diagnosis codes, provider identifiers, and more. Results are cached (24h for reference data, 5min for transactional). Returns JSON with data lineage metadata. |
