Tools & capabilities
Uk Contracts tools 5
search_noticesFull-text search of UK government procurement from Contracts Finder (Cabinet Office) — what the public sector bought, who supplied it, and for how much, plus open opportunities still out to tender. Covers NHS trusts, councils, police forces, universities and central government departments. Search b…get_noticeGet the full detail for a single UK Contracts Finder notice by the `id` returned by search_notices or recent_notices. Returns the complete (untruncated) description, buyer, contract value, awarded supplier, CPV classification, region, tender period and contact where published. Accepts either id for…recent_noticesList the most recent UK procurement notices from Contracts Finder, newest-first, optionally filtered by stage (tender/award). Same compact shape as search_notices. Keyless.find_a_tender_recentRecent HIGH-VALUE UK government tenders and contract awards from the Find a Tender Service (find-tender.service.gov.uk) — the UK's above-threshold procurement portal (the post-Brexit replacement for EU TED, for larger public contracts). Use for "high value UK tenders", "above threshold UK governmen…find_a_tender_noticeFull detail for one Find a Tender Service (high-value UK) notice by its OCID (e.g. "ocds-h6vhtk-06d27d", from find_a_tender_recent results). Returns title, buyer, description, CPV classification, value, deadlines, and documents. Keyless.
Kentucky Code tools 2
ky_statuteGet the FULL TEXT of a section of the Kentucky Revised Statutes (KRS) — Kentucky state law — by citation. "507.020" is murder; "383.580" is the landlord security-deposit statute. Accepts natural forms: "507.020", "KRS 507.020", "§ 507.020". Returns the current statutory text, the catchline, the "Effective:" date, and the legislative "History:" (the Acts that enacted and amended it). Kentucky publishes the CURRENT text only — a prior (pre-amendment) version's text is not available online, only its existence; this tool says so rather than guessing. Keyless. Use for "what does KRS 507.020 say" or to check a Kentucky statute a case or contract relies on.ky_searchSearch the Kentucky Revised Statutes BY TOPIC or keyword rather than citation — "security deposit", "concealed carry", "DUI per se limit", "homicide". Real full-text search over the statutory body text, not just catchlines: a query like "landlord" surfaces KRS 383.580 ("Security deposits") even though that catchline contains neither word. Returns matching citations and catchlines; call ky_statute with a citation for the full text. Keyless.
