FDA import alert red lists tools (6)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts
  • get_listingFree

    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_firmsFree

    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_alertsFree

    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_listingsFree

    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_firmFree

    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_quoteFree

    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).

What the publisher says

From the FDA import alert red lists repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

referencesource-mcp

MCP server for referencesource.org — small, verified reference datasets where every record carries its source URL and a verbatim quote from that page, so any value an assistant gives you can be checked, not just believed.

285 datasets, 110,000+ records: regulatory thresholds and deadlines, version compatibility, standards supersessions, certification registers, inspection requirements, and more. Each dataset states its coverage and its last-verified date.

Tools

verify_quote is the unusual one: assistants invent plausible-but-wrong values roughly 19% of the time in our own measurements, and this is the check. Four verdicts come back:

Where a record is found, the answer carries the stored value, the record URL, the source URL and the verbatim quote, so the claim can be traced upstream — plus an attestation saying plainly that the verdict is about what our source states, not about what is true in the world. Asking whether the 2026 conforming loan limit for Autauga County, Alabama is $806,500 returns differs, stored value $832,750, quoting the FHFA row it came from.

Scope, stated so nobody overclaims: these tools search referencesource.org's own published records. They do not fetch arbitrary URLs and cannot check a claim against a page we have not harvested. not_found means "not in this dataset", never "false".

Setup

Claude Desktop — add to claudedesktopconfig.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "referencesource": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "referencesource-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Cursor / other stdio MCP clients — same idea: command npx, args ["-y", "referencesource-mcp"].

Clients that support remote servers directly don't need this package at all — point them at the streamable-HTTP endpoint: https://referencesource.org/mcp.

Notes

the stateless server at referencesource.org/mcp.

  • Zero dependencies; Node 18+. The package is a thin stdio→HTTPS bridge to

(see referencesource.org/privacy).

  • No accounts, no keys, no tracking beyond standard server request logs

package just makes it callable mid-conversation.

  • Data is free to read on the site in HTML, Markdown, and JSON; this

MIT licensed.
