Customs Analysis HS Code Search

Search HS codes from customs data using the UpKuaJing Open Platform API.

Overview

This skill allows you to search for HS (Harmonized System) codes by providing a product name and HS code keywords. It returns a list of matching HS codes that can be used in other analysis report skills.

Running Scripts

Environment Setup

  1. Check Python: python --version
  2. Install dependencies: pip install -r requirements.txt

Script directory: scripts/*.py Run example: python scripts/*.py

Important: Always use direct script invocation like python scripts/customs_analysis_hscode_search.py. Do NOT use shell compound commands like cd scripts && python customs_analysis_hscode_search.py

HS Code Search (customs_analysis_hscode_search.py)

  • Return granularity: One or more matching HS codes
  • Use cases: Find HS codes by product name, look up customs classification codes, search tariff codes
  • Examples:
    • "Search HS codes for milk powder"
    • "Find HS codes starting with 0402"
  • Parameters: See HS Code Search API

API Key and Top-up

This skill requires an API key. The API key is stored in the ~/.upkuajing/.env file:

cat ~/.upkuajing/.env

Example file content:

UPKUAJING_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

API Key Not Set

First check if the ~/.upkuajing/.env file has UPKUAJING_API_KEY; If UPKUAJING_API_KEY is not set, prompt the user to choose:

  1. User has one: User provides it (manually add to ~/.upkuajing/.env file)
  2. User doesn't have one: You can apply using the interface (auth.py --new_key), the new key will be automatically saved to ~/.upkuajing/.env Wait for user selection;

Account Top-up

When API response indicates insufficient balance, explain and guide user to top up:

  1. Create top-up order (auth.py --new_rec_order)
  2. Based on order response, send payment page URL to user, guide user to open URL and pay, user confirms after successful payment;

Get Account Information

Use this script to get account information for UPKUAJING_API_KEY: auth.py --account_info

API Key and UpKuaJing Account

Fees

All API calls incur fees, different interfaces have different billing methods.

Latest pricing: Users can visit Detailed Price Description Or use: python scripts/auth.py --price_info (returns complete pricing for all interfaces)

Query Billing Rules

Billed by number of calls, each call returns one page of HS code search results:

  • Each API call incurs a fee
  • Before execution:
    1. Inform user that this query will incur a fee
    2. Stop, wait for explicit user confirmation in a separate message, then execute script

Fee Confirmation Principle

Any operation that incurs fees must first inform and wait for explicit user confirmation. Do not execute in the same message as the notification.

Workflow

Decision Guide

| User Intent | Use API | |-------------|---------| | "Search HS codes for milk powder" | HS Code Search | | "Find HS codes starting with 0402" | HS Code Search | | "Look up tariff codes for a product" | HS Code Search |

Usage Examples

Search HS Codes

User request: "Search HS codes for milk powder with prefix 0402"

python scripts/customs_analysis_hscode_search.py --params '{"product":"milk powder","hscode":"0402"}'

Query the next page:

python scripts/customs_analysis_hscode_search.py --params '{"product":"milk powder","hscode":"0402","cursor":"eyJpZCI6MX0="}'

Error Handling

  • API key invalid/non-existent: Check UPKUAJING_API_KEY in ~/.upkuajing/.env file
  • Insufficient balance: Guide user to top up
  • Invalid parameters: Must first check the corresponding API documentation in references/ directory, get correct parameter names and formats from documentation, do not guess

API Documentation Reference

Best Practices

  1. Check API documentation:

  2. Search parameters:

    • Both product and hscode are required
    • Provide both product name and HS code prefix for best results
  3. Cross-skill usage:

    • Use found HS codes with customs-analysis-hscode-detail to get code descriptions
    • Use found HS codes with customs-analysis-trends or customs-analysis-area for detailed analysis

Notes

  • product and hscode are both required parameters
  • The response list contains matching HS code strings
  • File paths use forward slashes on all platforms
  • Prohibit outputting technical parameter format: Do not display code-style parameters in responses, convert to natural language
  • Do not estimate or guess per-call fees — use python scripts/auth.py --price_info to get accurate pricing information
  • Do not guess parameter names, get accurate parameter names and formats from documentation
