FedWatch — Federal Funding & Lien Watcher

Search normalized public business-register / new-filing records. PROMOTED (2026-10-16): ct_business_registry (Connecticut Business Master, 1.30M entities), or_business_registry (Oregon active businesses, 1.58M), pa_business_registry (Pennsylvania registered businesses, 4.17M), tx_franchise_taxpayers (Texas franchise-tax accounts incl. SOS file numbers, 3.49M) — all via the states' official Socrata open-data portals with exact counts. GATED: co_business_entities (Colorado SOS automated-collection authorization + written terms) and ny_business_filings (NY Open Data written consent) return the named gate; Arizona stays planned (Business Center is CAPTCHA/identity-gated, no public API). fedwatch_sources carries a businesses entry for all 50 states + DC. Filters a source cannot honor exactly (e.g. entity_type on CT, which publishes none) are refused with the reason.

Search federal contract AWARDS already made (USASpending, served from FedWatch's relay-ingested copy — a fleet machine syncs USASpending daily because USASpending blocks direct Worker fetches): who won, how much, which agency, period of performance. Filter by keyword, NAICS, and/or agency; sort by amount (default) or most recent. Every response states its data-as-of and the true total_matches under the filters. The incumbency/recompete evidence layer.

Search PUBLIC, curator-ingested historical procurement results, disclosed winners, explicitly documented unsuccessful bidders, selection records and linked evidence. An award is never proof of which other firms lost or why. This is a partial curated KB, not all government procurements.

Search nine source-linked historical PUBLIC procurement research cases: rubrics, committee scores, rankings, recommendations, approved awards and noncompetitive purchases. Preserves original stage; recommended/ranked is not awarded. This is a hand-selected research sample, NOT a complete bid universe or live SMAT outcomes.

Search live federal contract opportunities on SAM.gov, newest-modified first. Filter by keyword, NAICS codes, set-aside codes (e.g. SBA, 8A, HZC, SDVOSBC, WOSB), and notice types (e.g. 'Sources Sought'). The public index applies those filters after fetch, so a filtered search pages deeper (up to 10 pages / 1,000 records) until the filter is satisfied — the response reports pages_fetched, how many records were examined (fetched), and scan_truncated when the page budget ran out. Returns the SAM index total and the post-filter count.

Court dockets via CourtListener/RECAP — GATED on the expansion's one named credential gap: CourtListener's API returns 401 without a token, no CourtListener credential exists in fleet stores, and account creation is out of scope for this server. Provisioning a COURTLISTENER_API_TOKEN secret is the exact unlock; until then calls return that named gate. PACER is never scraped.

Federal enforcement sources — currently ALL gated or planned, and the tools say exactly why per source: epa_echo (EPA ECHO DFR services documented but the documented calls did not reproduce from fleet egress on 2026-10-16 — adapter deferred, not faked), osha_enforcement (DOL API now requires a registered key; none is held and registration is an account creation), fcc_uls / faa_registry (bulk-file ETL shapes, not query APIs). Calls return the named gate for the chosen source.

Search multiple promoted public-data sources for the same organization/topic, normalize the records, rank actionability with a deterministic reason-bearing heuristic, and surface only conservative cross-source identity candidates. Scores are not probabilities and name matches are never called verified identity.

Search live federal grant opportunities on Grants.gov (posted by default). Returns hit count, agency, open/close dates, and assistance-listing (CFDA) numbers. Filter by agency code; sort by close date (soonest first); or restrict to grants closing within N days — sort/window apply to the fetched window and the response says when the window is narrower than the total hit count.

Search the SAM.gov Assistance Listings program catalog (the programs behind the grants — by agency and program number). Catalog data: use grants_search for live deadlines.

Search FDA/CMS healthcare sources. openfda_drug_recalls (default): FDA drug enforcement/recall reports — keyword matches product description or recalling firm. openfda_device_510k: FDA 510(k) clearances — keyword matches device name or applicant. npi_registry: NPPES NPI registry — keyword is an organization-name prefix (city/state refine; an exact NPI goes in the apn field); phone numbers and authorized-official contacts are never returned. FDA warning letters have no openFDA endpoint (separate planned entry); CMS Open Payments is archived 2015–2022 and blocked as a live source — see fedwatch_sources.

USPTO trademark/patent data — GATED on credential provisioning: the modern USPTO APIs (ODP, TSDR case status) all require a registered API key (keyless routes retired). The fleet holds a scoped USPTO ODP credential in its secure vault from the USIPE program; copying it into this Worker (secret USPTO_ODP_API_KEY, budgeted against the shared daily cap) is the named unlock. uspto_bulk is the keyless bulk-file path (ETL shape, planned). Calls return the named gate until a source is promoted.

Search normalized public license records from promoted official sources. Arizona ADHS remains a partial provider-name search; California DCC remains a one-page partial search with unverified total/paging; New York OCM (jskf-tt3q) is an official statewide Socrata dataset whose exact filtered count, schema evidence, source refresh time and resumable paging are returned on every call — OCM rows are explicitly classified as active/expired/surrendered/cancelled/revoked-if-observed/pending/proximity-protection/under-review rather than treating every row as an active license; Oregon OLCC (or_olcc_cannabis_licenses) and Connecticut establishments (ct_cannabis_establishments) are official Socrata registers with exact counts. fedwatch_sources carries a licenses entry for all 50 states + DC with each program's status. Unnecessary personal contact fields are not fetched.

Search tax-lien data. Default mode 'db': FedWatch's lien database (county lien records ingested from public sources; every hit is labeled with its source and extraction path) — filter by state, county, parcel, or free text matched against address/owner/parcel/city. For upcoming sales pass upcoming_only (sale date today or later) and/or sale_within_days, with sort 'sale_date_asc' for next-sale-first; the default view is historical, most recent sale first. Modes 'nyc' (NYC's official lien-sale notice lists, live) and 'discover'/'both' (live discovery of public tax-lien datasets on open-data portals) remain available explicitly and serve as the labeled fallback when the DB has no match or is unreachable. Every response carries the partial-coverage label — this is not national coverage.

Search normalized public permit/violation records from a promoted official source. Promoted (2026-10-16 all-states expansion): Phoenix AZ (ArcGIS), Chicago permits + building violations, NYC DOB permits/violations + HPD violations, Austin permits + code cases, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Honolulu, New Orleans, Kansas City, Orlando, Cincinnati (Socrata), and Philadelphia, Columbus, Charlotte, Miami-Dade, Detroit, Albuquerque, Sioux Falls, Virginia Beach, Louisville, Portland OR (residential), Raleigh (180-day window) via ArcGIS. County feeds added 2026-10-18 (county census Batch A): Maricopa County AZ building permits (the county PND current-permits view — the former named gap, now promoted as a current-permits view, not a historical register), Adams County CO, Alachua County FL, Spokane County WA (layer lags; newest issued 2025-05-21), DC building permits (30-day window), Pottawattamie County IA septic-permit document index (ArcGIS), and Montgomery County MD commercial permits, Prince George's County MD permits (2023–2025), Howard County MD permits (city/zip only), Williamson County TX permits (WCAD file), King County WA food-establishment inspections, Marin County CA permit inspections (Socrata) — every feed reports its exact count/completeness so capped results are never mistaken for the whole universe. Per-state coverage for all 50 states + DC is in fedwatch_sources. Not every source supports every filter: an unsupported filter is refused with the reason, never silently ignored.

Search Maricopa County Assessor parcel records (GIS Parcels layer) by APN, situs-address fragment, or subdivision/address keyword. Parcel identity, situs address, sale date/price, deed and subdivision only — owner name and mailing address exist in the layer and are deliberately never returned. TOOL SHAPE ONLY: recorder documents and tax delinquency are not this pack; delinquency data belongs to the liens program.

Search SEC EDGAR filings. Source sec_edgar_filings (default): full-text search across filing text (keyword required) with optional form filter (e.g. 'D', '8-K', '13F-HR'), or a per-CIK submissions view when cik is given (recent-filings window — 13F coverage is that window only, labelled as such). EDGAR's own hit total is carried; when EDGAR reports it as a lower bound (relation gte) the response says so. Watch a CIK or a keyword+form query for new-filings alerts.
