Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| get_current_readingA | Today's Gold Barometer reading: the 0-100 gold buying-conditions score, its zone, and the state of each measured part. Updated daily after the US market closes. It measures conditions. It is not advice, and it does not predict the price. |
| get_reading_historyA | Past Gold Barometer readings, oldest first. Daily published readings by default; set include_reconstructed to true to add month-end context rows rebuilt back to 2019. The monthly record back to 1971 lives in the public archive. |
| get_zone_recordC | What followed months that read like a given zone, across the reconstructed record since 1971: median gold move 1 and 5 years later, before and after inflation, with the month count behind each figure. It measures conditions. It is not advice, and it does not predict the price. |

Scored across 3 tools
Each tool targets a distinct need: current reading, historical data, and analytical zone record. No overlap or ambiguity in purpose, making selection straightforward.
All tool names follow the consistent pattern get_ + descriptive noun phrase in snake_case. The naming is uniform and predictable.
With only 3 tools, the server is tightly scoped to its narrow domain. Each tool serves a clear function, and the count falls well within the ideal range.
The server covers the complete data surface for the Gold Barometer: current condition, historical series, and zone-based outcome analysis. No obvious missing operations or dead ends.
