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

Fetch one USPTO office action’s full text. Pass document_id (from search_office_actions’ document_id field) for an exact match, or application_number + mail_date to look it up by application and date. Returns the office action body text, its character length, and a truncation flag.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`document_id`	string	no	The office action’s document id, as returned by search_office_actions (field document_id).
`application_number`	string	no	US patent application number — use with mail_date when you do not have a document_id.
`mail_date`	string	no	The office action mail date (ISO YYYY-MM-DD), from search_office_actions’ mail_date field. Required when document_id is not given.
`_apiKey`	string	no	USPTO ODP API key. Get free at https://data.uspto.gov/myodp.
