Direct BLS Data Access in OpenAI Agents SDK

Your agent connects to the `query_bls` tool to grab specific economic figures from the Bureau of Labor Statistics Full — The Mega Server. You get the exact series IDs you need without manually scraping public sites. This setup works by passing the server instance into your agent constructor. The SDK handles the heavy lifting, letting your agent run complex lookbacks against the BLS database.

High-Volume Economic Lookups

You can run up to 50 concurrent requests using the `query_bls` function. It keeps your agent moving fast when you need to compare multiple labor datasets simultaneously. Since this MCP Server runs via HTTP, you wrap the connection in an async context manager. It keeps your memory footprint low while the agent processes the incoming JSON payloads.

Production Safety for Labor Data

Use the OpenAI Agents SDK guardrails to monitor what your agent does with the Bureau of Labor Statistics Full — The Mega Server output. It prevents the agent from passing bad parameters to the `query_bls` tool. Tracing happens automatically in your dashboard. You see every call your agent makes to the server, ensuring your production deployment stays within your defined safety constraints.
