Capabilities

Tools 1

verify_livestock_counterparty

Read-only USDA Packers and Stockyards livestock counterparty verification. Call when a user or system needs to check a livestock or cattle buyer, dealer, market agency, or packer before a sale, transaction, procurement decision, vendor onboarding, or recurring review. Use business_name for the legal or trade name; add region when similarly named entities may exist, and omit region if it is unknown. Searches bonded dealers and market agencies buying on commission, bonded market agencies selling livestock on commission, bonded packers, and current suspension windows. The tool does not modify USDA or user systems, and repeated calls against the same certified snapshot are idempotent. If the certified USDA snapshot is stale, it returns SOURCE_STALE without a verification; when direct execution is disabled, it returns PAID_EXECUTION_REQUIRED with the measured Apify handoff instead of claiming a result. Returns source-attributed match status, bond coverage when published, legal/trade-name match basis, region resolution, suspension evidence, and source dates. Do not use this tool as a credit score, solvency determination, legal conclusion, recommendation to transact, or guarantee of payment. Current expired-registration status is unavailable because the USDA expired-registration source currently available for validation is stale.
