Tools

All tools are read-only and use openWorldHint because they retrieve external, evolving ABS and RBA data.

Tool	Purpose	Key inputs
search_datasets	Search the curated ABS and RBA catalogue with deterministic ranking.	query, source
list_catalogue	List catalogue entries unranked, optionally filtered by source, category, or tag.	source, category, tag, include_ceased, include_discontinued
list_economic_concepts	List semantic concepts accepted by get_economic_series.	query, source, category
get_abs_dataset_structure	Retrieve ABS SDMX dimensions and code lists.	dataflow_id
get_abs_data	Retrieve ABS data in a normalised response shape.	dataflow_id, key, start_period, end_period, last_n, updated_after
list_rba_tables	Deprecated compatibility alias for curated RBA tables.	category, include_discontinued
get_rba_table	Retrieve an RBA statistical table in a normalised response shape.	table_id, series_ids, start_date, end_date, last_n
get_economic_series	Preferred analyst-facing retrieval for curated concepts.	concept, variant, geography, frequency, start, end, last_n

Preferred LLM flow

For LLM-facing integrations, use:

list_economic_concepts(query="...")

then:

get_economic_series(concept="...")

This gives the model a constrained discovery surface before retrieval.

Expert source-native flow

For exact ABS/RBA control, use search_datasets or list_catalogue, inspect structures where needed, then call get_abs_data or get_rba_table.
