`hts_lookup`

Pack: hts · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/hts_lookup for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Get the full tariff detail for ONE HTS code, AND resolve its Section 301 (China) / Section 232 (steel & aluminum) Chapter-99 add-on duties into an effective-total view. Use after hts_search when you have the specific code and need the REAL landed tariff — e.g. “8712.00.48 is 11% base, plus Section 301 9903.88.03 +25% on China-origin = 36% effective”. Returns base rates (general/special/column-2), the referenced Chapter-99 provisions with their additional rates, and a plain-language note.
