    Server tool list (13)

    Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.

    shipping_oil_tradeQuery bilateral oil trade flows (EIA US imports/exports + Eurostat). Accepts structured filters OR a free-text `query` (matches country/notes). NOTE: this is import/export flow data, NOT chokepoint throughput — for Hormuz transit volumes use shipping_chokepoint.
    shipping_sanctionsCheck vessel/entity against OFAC sanctions
    shipping_fleetQuery tanker fleet database. Accepts structured filters OR a free-text `query` (matches vessel name, IMO, owner, or type).
    shipping_oil_pricesGet oil price benchmarks (WTI, Brent)
    shipping_statusDatabase statistics plus per-dataset freshness: how recently each dataset was refreshed by our pipeline, how old its newest record is, and whether it is ok / lagging / stale / empty. Call this to decide how much to trust anything else this server returns.
    shipping_freshnessPer-dataset freshness only: pipeline refresh age vs expected cadence, newest record age, source, and status (ok / lagging / stale / empty / unknown). Use before relying on a figure that must be current.
    shipping_top_exportersTop oil exporting countries by value/volume (a ranking — no query needed). Optional `product` or `query` recognizes a product keyword (crude/refined/lng/coal/iron_ore).
    shipping_country_flowsTrade partners for a specific country (who they export to / import from). Pass the country as `country` or `query`.
    shipping_vessel_typesFleet breakdown by vessel type
    shipping_emissionsQuery EU MRV vessel emissions data — CO2, fuel consumption, time at sea for 22,543 vessels (2018-2024). Search by IMO, ship type, or year — or a free-text `query` (7-digit = IMO, else ship type/name).
    shipping_sanctioned_at_euFind sanctioned vessels that called at EU/EEA ports. Cross-references OFAC sanctions with EU MRV emissions data (verifiable IMO-level identity). Filter by year or a free-text `query` (sanctions program e.g. "Iran"/"Russia", flag, or vessel name).
    shipping_chokepointMaritime chokepoint intelligence for Hormuz, Suez, Malacca, or Bab el-Mandeb. Returns authoritative EIA baseline throughput (barrels/day, % of global), a live AIS snapshot (vessels/tankers/moving/stationary) for the chokepoint, sanctioned vessels currently detected there, and dark-fleet behavioural signals (loitering + AIS gaps). This is the tool for "how is Hormuz doing".
    shipping_doc_intelQuery the shipping document intelligence layer: eBL platform adoption (12 platforms), MLETR country adoption (23 countries, 13 enacted), document fraud cases ($11.3B), DCSA standards (10), industry stats (26 metrics). The state of shipping document digitization.
