Tools

create_permit_watch
Create a pending email watch only after the user reviews the exact email, search query and optional county, explicitly authorizes this request and confirmation email, and accepts https://permitreporter.com/terms and https://permitreporter.com/privacy. This additive action stores the email and search for alerts; it does not file a permit or prove coverage. The address must confirm before alerts begin. Reuse submission_id for safe retries.
shallow
fetch
Fetch one reviewed PermitReporter guide or one collected permit record returned by search. Permit records retain source, record date, collection timestamp and coverage limits.
shallow
get_contractor_leads
Return recent, source-linked collected permits classified by trade and project scope for contractor research. Classifications are editorial signals, not official fields or guaranteed work.
shallow
get_county_coverage
Return the current source route, issuer, cadence, lag, through-date, collected record count, sources and statistical floor for one covered US county. Call this before interpreting a missing county result.
shallow
get_permit_record
Retrieve one privacy-minimized collected building-permit record by PermitReporter record ID, including its canonical citation, official source link and collection timestamp.
shallow
get_statewide_snapshot
Return current PermitReporter counts, route-status boundaries, record-date range and latest collection timestamp without returning personal data. Pass `state` with a two-letter code to get that one jurisdiction's collected coverage, including an explicit answer for states where nothing has been collected yet.
shallow
search
Search PermitReporter reviewed guidance and privacy-minimized collected building-permit records. Returns canonical URLs for citation. Call fetch with a returned ID for the full source.
shallow
search_permits
Search privacy-minimized collected building-permit records by public text, US county, city, PermitReporter trade classification or record-date range. Coverage spans 34 states and the District of Columbia; name a county bare for Georgia ('Cobb') or state-qualified elsewhere ('Los Angeles, CA'). Returns no raw payloads or party arrays. An empty result means no matching record was collected, not that no permit exists.
