Orange Book competitive intelligence from FDA's monthly official data ZIP.
Five tools with complete input/output schemas and strong descriptions. All tools follow verb_noun naming (orange_book_*). Descriptions are domain-specific and include important legal disclaimers (e.g., 'Approved ANDAs indicate regulatory approval, not launch'). Input schemas are well-typed with required fields and limits. Output schemas are documented. However, parameter descriptions lack detail on formats/constraints (e.g., date format YYYY-MM-DD stated in description but not in schema; limit ranges 1-100 stated in descriptions but not enforced in schema). No error handling guidance visible. No tool annotations (readOnlyHint, etc.). Missing per-parameter type hints in some cases (e.g., 'limit' is number but min/max not in schema). Composition is clean, each tool has one responsibility.
Retrieve all FDA Orange Book product, patent, and exclusivity rows for one NDA or ANDA application. Patent and exclusivity dates are FDA listings, not a legal conclusion about enforceability or actual generic entry.
Profile FDA Orange Book competition for an ingredient or trade name: matched applications/products, NDA versus ANDA holders, RLD/reference standards, patents, and exclusivities. Approved ANDAs indicate regulatory approval, not launch, supply, substitution, or market share.
Find FDA Orange Book exclusivity expirations in a date window, optionally filtered by drug/applicant. Exclusivity codes have program-specific meanings; expiration alone does not guarantee generic approval or launch.
Find listed Orange Book patent expirations in a date window, optionally filtered by drug/applicant through matching product applications. Dates are sponsor-submitted FDA listings and do not establish freedom to operate or a certain launch date.
Search FDA Orange Book products by ingredient, trade name, applicant, or application number. Returns NDA/ANDA status, therapeutic-equivalence codes, RLD/reference-standard flags, strength, route, and approval date.
Numeric parameter constraints (limit, from_date, to_date) stated in descriptions but not enforced in JSON Schema. Schema lacks minValue/maxValue and pattern constraints.
No tool annotations (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint) present. All tools are read-only but this is not declared in schema.
No error handling guidance visible in code. callTool() throws generic Error for unknown tools but no recovery hints for invalid inputs, missing data, or API failures.

Date format (YYYY-MM-DD) documented in descriptions but not enforced via JSON Schema format constraint. LLMs may pass invalid date strings.
productSearch() requires either 'query' or 'application_number' but schema does not declare this mutual dependency. LLMs may omit both or pass both without guidance.
