List UK company filing history from Companies House

company_uk_filings
Read-onlyIdempotent

Return the filing history of a UK company from the Companies House register — accounts, confirmation statements, officer appointments, address and capital changes, resolutions and mortgages — most recent first, optionally filtered by category, with date, form type (AA, CS01, AP01, TM01), the readable register description, registrar annotations and a document_url for every filed image. Use when: What has this UK company filed recently? Not for: You need the current directors themselves rather than the filing events — use company.uk.directors. Price: USD 0.005/call (x402), 0.004 (account key).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
limitNoMaximum filings to return per page (1-100). Default 5.
detailNoHow much of each filing to return. Default summary: the readable description, its source, the register's annotations, the form type and the document URL. `full` adds the register's raw description_key and description_values for reconciliation against a register capture.
offsetNoZero-based index into the register's filing list for the applied category filter. Nothing is filtered out after reading, so page.has_more is simply offset + returned < page.total; pass back page.next_offset.
categoryNoOptional comma-separated register categories to include (e.g. accounts, address, annual-return, capital, change-of-name, incorporation, liquidation, miscellaneous, mortgage, officers, resolution, confirmation-statement). The applied value is echoed back as query.category.
company_numberYesCompanies House company number. Accepted shapes are the register's own — 1-8 digits (zero-padded to 8, e.g. 445790 → 00445790), one letter + 7 digits (R0000001), two letters + 6 digits (SC002180, NI000001, OC123456, OE000001), or the registered-society suffix forms (two letters + 5 digits + 1 letter; two letters + 4 digits + 2 letters). Case-insensitive; surrounding whitespace is ignored (which is why maxLength is 10); internal spaces and punctuation are not accepted. Any other value (for example PROBE) is rejected as INVALID_INPUT before payment and before any upstream call.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Beyond annotations that mark it read-only and idempotent, the description adds real behavioral detail: results sorted most-recent-first, optional category filtering, output fields, and document URLs for every filed image. It also discloses pricing, which is useful for call decisions.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is compact and front-loaded: the core returning behavior comes first, followed by crisp selection guidance and pricing. No wasted words.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Together with the fully described schema and output schema, the description covers what the tool returns, when to use it, what it is not for, and cost. Nothing material is missing for an agent to invoke it correctly.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Input schema coverage is 100%, and each parameter already has detailed descriptions including validation patterns, defaults, and page semantics. The description adds context about category filtering and form types, but does not need to explain parameters further; baseline 3 is appropriate.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description names a specific verb ('Return'), a precise resource ('filing history of a UK company from the Companies House register'), and a concrete scope with examples of covered filing types. It also differentiates itself from company_uk_directors by clarifying it returns filing events rather than current directors.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Includes explicit 'Use when' and 'Not for' guidance, giving a representative query and naming the sibling tool to use instead for director lists. This removes ambiguity about when to select this tool.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

A4.4/5.0
Disambiguation4/5

Tools are largely distinct, targeting specific entities (UK company, US company, domain, LEI, FX, location, parcel, weather) or sub-aspects (e.g., accounts vs. charges vs. directors). Overlap exists between company.uk.profile and company.uk.status (both contain status info, but the latter is cheaper and focused). Also, company.uk.filings and company.us.filings_latest could be confused if an agent generalizes 'filings' across jurisdictions.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tools follow a consistent pattern: domain_entity_subject (e.g., company_uk_accounts, domain_expiry, weather_us_alerts). Underscores and lower case are used throughout. Verbs are implied by the noun (e.g., 'search' for lookup, 'detect' for identification). No mixed conventions or unpredictable names.

Tool Count4/5

24 tools is on the high side but still reasonable for a general-purpose data server spanning multiple domains (company, domain, entity, fx, location, parcel, weather). Each domain gets a cohesive set, and the documentation justifies each tool. Could be slightly leaner if some niche tools (e.g., domain_expiry vs. registration) were merged, but overall scoping is acceptable.

Completeness4/5

Each domain offers good coverage: UK company tools cover CRUD-like operations (profile, status, search, filings, charges, directors, owners, registered office); similarly for US companies (profile, filings, resolve, latest filings). Weather has forecast, observation, alerts. Parcel only detects carrier (no tracking). Missing features like advanced filtering on company filings or less common domains, but core workflows are covered.
