MCP tools · 4 exposed · ~742 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
hsr_coverage ~141

Report the size and date range of the FTC Hart-Scott-Rodino (HSR) early-termination notice dataset — total notice count, earliest and latest dates on record, and the 2021 suspension gap when the FTC paused granting early terminations for about five weeks. Call this before treating an empty hsr_recent, hsr_search, or hsr_party_history result as "no data" — it confirms whether the requested window actually falls inside FTC coverage. Example: hsr_coverage({})

NameTypeReqDescription
_apiKeystring–Optional — your own api.data.gov key for higher limits; omit to use the shared Pipeworx key.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

hsr_party_history ~153

Get every FTC Hart-Scott-Rodino (HSR) early-termination notice mentioning a given company or fund, oldest to newest, with a total count — a full antitrust-clearance history for that party across every deal the FTC granted early termination on. Example: hsr_party_history({ party: "Carl C. Icahn" })

NameTypeReqDescription
_apiKeystring–Optional — your own api.data.gov key for higher limits; omit to use the shared Pipeworx key.
partystringyesCompany or fund name to search for, e.g. "Carl C. Icahn" or "American Securities Partners". Matches anywhere in the notice title (as-filed legal name).

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

hsr_recent ~207

Get the most recent FTC Hart-Scott-Rodino (HSR) early-termination notices, newest first. When a merger clears HSR antitrust review early the FTC publishes a notice — for a private-target deal this is the earliest public signal the merger was filed and cleared, ahead of any 8-K or press release. Returns acquirer, target, transaction number and filing date. Answers "what mergers got antitrust clearance recently" or "which deals received HSR early termination this week." Example: hsr_recent({ days: 7, limit: 25 })

NameTypeReqDescription
_apiKeystring–Optional — your own api.data.gov key for higher limits; omit to use the shared Pipeworx key.
daysnumber–How many days back from today to look. Default 7.
limitnumber–Max notices to return, newest first (paged from the source in batches of 50). Default 25, max 100.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

hsr_search ~241

Search FTC Hart-Scott-Rodino (HSR) early-termination notices by acquirer or target company name. Matches against the notice title, which embeds both parties and the transaction number, so a partial or one-sided company/fund name finds every notice that mentions it. Use this to check "did this merger get antitrust clearance" or "has the FTC granted HSR early termination for this deal." Example: hsr_search({ party: "Blockbuster", limit: 25 })
