SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires mcporter.

What problem does it solve? Checking product safety across US government databases requires visiting separate NHTSA, FDA, and CFPB websites with different search interfaces. This Skill unifies all three sources into a single conversational interface for recall and complaint monitoring. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Vehicle Recall Search: Query NHTSA safety recalls by make, model, and year, returning defect summaries, consequences, and remedies. - FDA Recall Search: Search FDA enforcement actions for drugs, food, and medical devices with filters for classification (I/II/III), status, and distribution. - Consumer Complaint Search: Look up CFPB complaints against financial companies by company name, product, or issue. - Use Case: Before purchasing a used car, ask whether a specific 2024 Ford F-150 has open recalls, then check FDA recalls for a food brand you regularly buy—all in one conversation. ## Quick Start Connect the gov-safety MCP server with mcporter, then ask the assistant to search for recalls on a specific vehicle make and model.
