    Description, as the server wrote it
    Fetch the full record for one CPSC recall by recall number: hazard description, remedy instructions, every product variant, UPCs, incident and injury reports, images, and the official CPSC recall page URL. Get a recall number from cpsc_search_recalls or cpsc_get_recent. CPSC jurisdiction: consumer products only — food/drugs (FDA), motor vehicles/tires (NHTSA), boats (USCG), pesticides (EPA), and firearms (ATF) are covered by other agencies.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "cpsc_get_recent" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Fetch the most recent CPSC consumer product recalls, newest-first, from a window of the last N days (default 30, up to 365). Use for "what's been recalled lately?" or a product safety feed; to find recalls by product, brand, hazard, or an older date range, use cpsc_search_recalls. Page past limit with offset: narrowing days cannot page, because the window is anchored to today and shrinking it drops the oldest recalls rather than advancing past the newest. A page returns fewer than limit recalls when it reaches the 64,000-byte response size budget; has_more and the notice give the offset to continue from. Pass a recall_number to cpsc_get_recall for the full record. CPSC jurisdiction: consumer products only — food/drugs (FDA), motor vehicles/tires (NHTSA), boats (USCG), pesticides (EPA), and firearms (ATF) are covered by other agencies.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "cpsc_search_recalls" says "search": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Search consumer product recalls from the CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) — toys, electronics, furniture, appliances, children's products, tools, and clothing. Give at least one text filter or date bound; to browse the latest recalls without one, use cpsc_get_recent. Filters combine with AND, and a text filter matches records whose field contains every one of its words, in any order and case-insensitively. Start with title_search when you have a product in hand — CPSC titles carry the brand, product, and hazard phrasing. For hazard types ("fire", "choking", "burn"), use hazard_search, which matches hazard descriptions, product names, and remedy instructions. When manufacturer finds nothing, try importer, retailer, or distributor: many recalls name one of those as the responsible company. Page past limit with offset — total_found counts every match and has_more says whether more remain; a page returns fewer than limit recalls when it reaches the 64,000-byte response size budget. Pass a recall_number to cpsc_get_recall for the full record, including the complete description, all images, and incident reports. CPSC jurisdiction: consumer products only — food/drugs (FDA), motor vehicles/tires (NHTSA), boats (USCG), pesticides (EPA), and firearms (ATF) are covered by other agencies.
