    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    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.
  • recent_license_changesWhat changed lately across a state: licences that lapsed, were reinstated, or appeared for the first time, newest first, optionally narrowed to one trade.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    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.

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
