英国尽职调查数据MCP服务

uk-due-diligence-mcp

Official-source UK due-diligence data for AI agents.

Search Companies House, Charity Commission, The Gazette and HMLR price-paid data, plus screen names against the UK (FCDO), OFAC, EU and UN sanctions lists. Exposes atomic MCP tools for company ownership, officers, cross-company appointment history, secured charges, insolvency notices and related registry evidence — the consuming agent decides how to investigate, not the server.

Every data source is a legally-mandated register with a free official API. Zero paywalls.

Sanctions

The UK list is the FCDO UK Sanctions List XML and is reported under the label OFSI (UK). The parser refuses an incomplete export: a file with fewer than 5,000 designations, a drop of more than 10% against the previous load in the same process, a duplicate UniqueID, or a missing DateGenerated fails the UK list, which is then reported in lists_unavailable with is_partial true. The floor and drop threshold are constants in sanctions.py.

Cross-register

Examples

Resolve "TAS Engineering" to a company number and check whether it has any outstanding charges.

→ company_search to find the company number, then company_charges for the full secured-debt picture (not just the has_charges summary).

Has Gareth Davies (director of company 06333469) been connected to any other companies, including ones that no longer exist?

→ company_officers to get his officer_id, then officer_appointments to surface every company he's held an appointment at, current or historic.

Is "MEL Precision Limited" in the middle of insolvency proceedings, and what does that actually mean legally?

→ gazette_insolvency to find the notices, then gazette_notice to read the full legal wording before drawing conclusions from the notice label alone.

Screen "Acme Trading Ltd" and its officers against sanctions lists.

→ company_officers for the officer names, then sanctions_screen against the company name and each officer.

Limitations

Things worth knowing before trusting output:

• land_title_search returns Price Paid transactions, not ownership. It does not return current proprietor/title data — HMLR's Price Paid Index only records historic sale transactions.
• Sanctions screening is exact/alias matching, not compliance clearance. A company/entity legal name matches reliably; person names with transliteration variants may not. An empty result is not a guarantee of clearance, and a hit on a common name may need disambiguation.
• has_charges: null means the check could not be confidently completed — a charges-endpoint outage, or a charge with an unrecognized status. Treat it as unresolved, not as "no charges."
• officer_appointments returns historical relationships. Companies House doesn't auto-resign a director when a company enters insolvency — check company_status on each appointment, not just resigned_on.
• Official-source data can be incomplete or delayed. These are the same registers a human would check, with the same latency and gaps.

Configuration

HMLR, The Gazette, and the sanctions lists require no credentials.
