`get_office_action_rejections`

Pack: uspto-office-actions · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/get_office_action_rejections for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Claim-level rejection data for every office action on one application. Returns AGGREGATE counts first (how many rejection records cite 35 U.S.C. 101/102/103/112, and double-patenting) and per-claim/per-record detail last. Use this before get_office_action_citations when the question is “what did the examiner reject this on”, not “what references were cited”.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`application_number`	string	yes	US patent application number, digits only or formatted.
`limit`	number	no	Max per-record rows to return in `records` (default 25, max 100). The `aggregate` block always covers every record USPTO returned for this application, not just `limit` of them.
`_apiKey`	string	no	USPTO ODP API key. Get free at https://data.uspto.gov/myodp.
