Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| get_coverageA | Coverage of the US-Mexico remittances dataset: first and last quarter available, state and municipality counts, sources, and the list of API endpoints. Call this first to learn which periods can be requested. |
| get_national_totalsA | Total remittances received by Mexico per period, in USD. Use freq=quarterly for the quarterly series or freq=yearly for annual totals (the most recent year may be partial). |
| get_mexico_statesA | Remittances received by each of the 32 Mexican states for one period, ranked by amount. Pass a year for the annual total, or a year plus quarter (Q1-Q4) for one quarter. |
| get_mexico_state_timeseriesA | Full remittance time series for one Mexican state (or every state when state is omitted). Use the exact state name from get_mexico_states, e.g. "Michoacán de Ocampo". |
| get_mexico_municipalitiesA | Remittances received by Mexican municipality for one year, ranked by amount. Filter to one state with state, and page through results with limit and offset. Municipal data is annual only. |
| get_us_statesB | Remittances sent from each US state for one period, with the Mexican-born population of that state. The US-origin series lags the Mexican series by a quarter or two. |

Scored across 6 tools
Each tool targets a distinct geographic level or query mode: coverage metadata, national totals, state period rankings, state time series, municipality rankings, and US state rankings. There is no meaningful overlap between them, and the descriptions clearly differentiate one-period snapshots from time series.
All tools follow the same get_<domain>_<resource> pattern with snake_case and a consistent verb prefix. Names like get_mexico_states, get_mexico_state_timeseries, and get_us_states are predictable and readable.
Six tools is a well-scoped size for a remittances dataset API. Each tool covers a meaningful queryable view without redundancy or bloat.
The tool set covers the dataset's major queryable dimensions: national totals, Mexican states, Mexican state time series, municipalities, US states, and coverage metadata. This gives agents a complete picture of the available data with no obvious dead ends.
