search_registrants
Pack: fara · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/fara/mcp
Search FARA registrants — US agents registered to represent FOREIGN principals (foreign governments, parties, businesses) for lobbying/influence inside the US. FARA has no server-side search, so this fetches the bulk active-registrant dump (~556 rows) once and filters CLIENT-SIDE by a name substring (case-insensitive); results are capped. Set status=“terminated” to search the much larger terminated dump (~6,500 rows, ~1.4MB fetched once). Returns each registrant’s name, registration_number (use it with list_foreign_principals / get_registrant_documents), address and registration_date. Keyless.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
name | string | no | Case-insensitive substring matched against the registrant name + business name, e.g. “scoyoc”, “global”, “BGR”. Omit to return the first page of all registrants. |
status | string | no | Which registrant dump to search. Default “active”. |
limit | number | no | Max rows to return (default 25, hard cap ${MAX_RESULTS}). |
