Discovering USITC DataWeb (International Trade Commission) Tables with Cline

Start by running `list_metadata_tables` to see every dataset available through the MCP Server. This command gives you a manifest of all tables, so your coding agent knows where to look for trade stats. Next, use `list_metadata_fields` on that table name. You'll get a list of specific columns, which lets Cline write precise code knowing exactly what metrics are available.

Validating Codes for USITC DataWeb (International Trade Commission) in Code

`list_metadata_values` pulls all valid codes—like country identifiers or specialized classification values. This is a key step when building reliable code, as it guarantees your filters won't fail at runtime. You can incorporate this value list into your component's validation logic before making an actual query.

Querying Trade Data and Building Components with Cline

The `query_trade_data` tool pulls trade statistics using filters like HS, SITC, or NAICS. You feed this data into a component that Cline creates for you, so it's immediately ready to display. Since the query supports complex POST filtering, Cline can write code robust enough to handle huge datasets and present them in a clean dashboard.
