Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| search_builders | Search Australian (currently NSW) builders, contractors and building companies by name; optionally filter by postcode. Returns matching entities with their licence status and a slug to pass to get_builder_risk / get_builder_timeline. Example: query='Acme Building' → '- Acme Building Pty Ltd (Current), 2099 → slug: acme-building-pty-ltd-1a2b'. Names are matched loosely, so try the trading name AND the legal (Pty Ltd) name if the first search misses. Query must be at least 2 characters. |
| get_builder_risk | Get the factual risk profile for one builder by slug: NSW licence number/class/status (current, expired, suspended, cancelled), ACN/ABN and ASIC registration status (incl. deregistration/strike-off), total timeline event count (not disciplinary finding count), and recorded source flags such as disciplinary history or licence problems. All facts come from official public registers, archived longitudinally by BuilderVet. Use for identity and dated evidence. This does not establish safety, financial health or complete coverage. Example: slug='acme-building-pty-ltd-1a2b' (get the slug from search_builders first). |
| get_builder_timeline | Get the dated event timeline for a builder by slug: licence status changes, deregistration/strike-off, disciplinary findings, public warnings, and building work rectification orders. Each event carries its severity (info/watch/risk), the official register it came from, and whether the source is archived. A removal notice is not a new finding or proof of wrongdoing. Do not imply exclusive access. Returns up to 50 most recent events. Example: slug='acme-building-pty-ltd-1a2b' → '2026-03-14 — [risk] Building work rectification order (nsw.bc.rectification-orders)'. |
