## Tools (as reported by the server, not verified)

- `scorecard\_lookup\_cip`: Search the Classification of Instructional Programs \(CIP\) taxonomy by keyword or partial name. Returns matching CIP codes with standard titles. Use this before passing cip\_code filters to scorecard\_search\_programs or scorecard\_get\_programs when you know a program by name but not its code. Served ent
- `scorecard\_list\_fields`: Search the College Scorecard field catalog by keyword. Returns matching field paths, descriptions, data types, and whether each field supports API-side sorting. Use before passing custom field paths to the fields parameter on scorecard\_get\_school to find a supported path. Served entirely from embedd
- `scorecard\_search\_schools`: Search and filter U.S. colleges and universities by name, location, type, size, and acceptance rate. Returns core identity and cost metrics. Use scorecard\_get\_school for profiles or scorecard\_search\_programs for program rankings. Geographic distance requires a U.S. ZIP; ZIP alone uses the provider d
- `scorecard\_get\_school`: Institutional profiles for one or more school IDs. Accepts up to 1,000 elements, deduplicates normalized IDs, serves the first 100 distinct IDs, and reports missing and unprocessed IDs separately. Use scorecard\_compare\_schools for comparisons. Custom fields return requested paths and their JSON valu
- `scorecard\_get\_programs`: All field-of-study programs at one school with median earnings 1 year after the highest credential, cumulative Stafford/Grad PLUS debt, and IPEDS awards for each year of the pooled debt cohort. Institution-level 6/8/10-year earnings are available via scorecard\_get\_earnings. Null or absent earnings h
- `scorecard\_get\_earnings`: Institution-level earnings of federally aided undergraduate entrants working and not enrolled, regardless of completion. Reports medians at 6/8/10 years after entry, 6/10-year percentiles, and non-male/male 6-year medians. For graduate program earnings use scorecard\_get\_programs. years selects API d
- `scorecard\_search\_programs`: Find programs by CIP code across institutions, ranked by median earnings within the fetched school page. Accepts school-side filters \(state, ownership, max cost\). Minimum earnings is applied locally; totals and pagination count schools before local program filtering. Use scorecard\_lookup\_cip to conv
- `scorecard\_compare\_schools`: Side-by-side comparison of 2–5 schools with ordinal competition ranks within the selected set \(ties share a rank\). Topics: costs \(tuition, net price by income bracket, debt\), admissions \(acceptance rate, SAT/ACT, enrollment\), outcomes \(completion, earnings, repayment\), aid \(Pell grants, federal loan
- `scorecard\_value\_analysis`: Analyze costs, debt, repayment progress, and earnings for one school. Returns debt-to-earnings and net-price-to-annual-earnings ratios alongside the source figures. family\_income selects the applicable net-price bracket. Repayment progress is the share of borrowers paying down principal 3 years afte
