6 tools
get_listing
Get one red-list entry in full
Everything FDA prints for one red-list entry: the firm name and address, the import alert and its title, the product code and description, FDA's stated reason (the Notes block — the actual finding, e.g. "Decomposition" or a confirmed laboratory result), and the date published, with the FDA page and a verbatim quote. Record IDs come from resolve_firm or list_alert_firms.

list_alert_firms
List the firms red-listed on one import alert
Who is on this import alert? Returns the firms red-listed on one alert number (from list_import_alerts), newest listing first, optionally narrowed to a country — for example every Vietnamese firm on 16-120, or every firm on 66-57. Each with the FDA page and a verbatim quote.

list_import_alerts
List the import alerts this register covers
Which FDA import alerts are in here, and how many firms are on each? Returns the alert number, FDA's own title for it, the number of firms red-listed, how many countries they are in, and the newest listing date. Call this first to see what can be answered, and to get an alert number for list_alert_firms.

list_recent_listings
List firms added to a red list since a date
Who has FDA red-listed recently? Returns the listings whose published date is on or after a date you give, newest first, optionally for one alert. Use this to watch a category — new detentions on the seafood alerts, say — rather than to look a firm up. The date FDA prints is when the FIRM was added to the alert.

resolve_firm
Find a firm on an FDA import alert red list
Is this supplier red-listed by FDA? Search the import alert red lists by firm name or part of one (e.g. "Tonga Tiur", "Qingdao", "pharmacy"), optionally narrowed to a country. Returns each listing with the import alert number and name, the country, the date FDA published the listing, and the FDA page and verbatim quote it was read from. A firm can appear more than once — one record per alert it is listed on.

verify_quote
Check a claimed import-alert fact against the register
Is this right? Check a claim about a red-list entry — the alert number a firm is on, its country, the date it was published, FDA's stated reason — against the register instead of trusting it. Says whether the claim matches a stored value, appears only in the verbatim FDA quote, or differs (and then what FDA's page says instead).
