    scan_barcodeLook up an Australian product by barcode (EAN/UPC/JAN, 6–14 digits) and get full chemical-safety analysis. Returns the product info (if found) plus an array of flagged ingredients with severity (red/amber), the matching chemical rule, source citation, and condition-specific notes. Optional `conditions` array escalates flags for users with chronic conditions: mcas, eczema, pcos, fertility, pregnancy, fibromyalgia, pots, ibs, hashimotos, fragrance, autism, adhd, asthma, autoimmune, endometriosis, lyme, chronic-fatigue.
    get_catalog_statsReturn the size of the indexed Australian product catalogue — total, food, beauty, and total scans performed. Useful to set user expectations on coverage.
    get_magnet_samplesList the six condition-specific magnet guides with sample product images. Each guide is a strict-clean shortlist (eczema-safe personal care, clean shampoos AU, mineral-only sunscreens AU, pregnancy-safe beauty, fragrance-free essentials, snacks without artificial dyes).
    submit_missing_productRequest that a product be added to the Low Tox Scanner index. Useful when scan_barcode returns product_found: false. Submission goes to a moderation queue.
    get_resourcesURL templates for chained queries — product page, per-product alternatives, category alternatives, magnet guides, OG images, and full LLM-ready documentation. Use to give the user/agent canonical links they can fetch or render directly.
