Did this contractor's licence change? Observed lapses and reinstatements, not a snapshot.
Scored across 2 tools
check_license_history is explicitly per-contractor and returns the full observed transition timeline, while recent_license_changes is a statewide, newest-first monitoring query. They operate at different granularities and answer different questions, so an agent should not have trouble selecting between them.
Both names are readable and use snake_case, but they do not follow the same pattern: check_license_history is verb-object while recent_license_changes is an adjective-noun phrase. With only two tools, this inconsistency is noticeable even though neither name is ambiguous.
Two tools is on the low end, but the server's stated scope is narrowly limited to licence-change monitoring and the two tools cover the two natural views: individual history and statewide recent changes. The count feels lean rather than bloated or insufficient.
For the stated change-monitoring domain, the surface is largely complete: one tool answers 'did this contractor change?' and the other answers 'what changed across the state?'. Current-status lookup is intentionally outside scope, and export or cross-contractor search is a minor omission rather than a core gap.
Has this contractor's licence changed? Returns every status transition observed in the state board's own published file since 2026-07-17 -- suspensions, expirations, reinstatements and first appearance -- with the date each was seen. This is change over time, not a current-status lookup: use it after a snapshot check, to find out whether the licence you are about to rely on lapsed and came back. Distinguishes 'no change observed' from 'this source is not observed for that change', which are not the same answer. Only public, unsuppressed directory records are returned. Read-only.
Inputs: state (required), license_number (required).
What changed lately across a state: licences that lapsed, were reinstated, or appeared for the first time, newest first, optionally narrowed to one trade. Answers the monitoring question a single lookup cannot -- which contractors lost standing this month, or who is newly licensed in this trade. Read-only.
Inputs: state (required), days, limit, trade, +1 more.
