## Tools
- fda_lookup_company (Company Lookup) - Quick company lookup: facilities (with addresses and operations) and enforcement actions (recalls) for a single company and its known aliases. Costs 1 credit. Excludes: 510(k) clearances, PMA approvals, drug applications, inspection history, and subsidiary data. Related: fda_company_full (adds clearances/approvals/drugs for 5 credits), fda_suggest_subsidiaries (discover related entities), fda_get_facility (per-facility products and operations by FEI). Endpoint: https://www.regdatalab.com/mcp
- fda_search_facilities (Search Facilities) - Search FDA-registered facilities by name, city, state, or country. Searches drug (DECRS) and device registration databases. Returns FEI number, name, address, and source. Use the operations parameter to filter by manufacturing type (e.g., 'Contract Manufacture', 'API', 'Repack'). Use country filter (ISO code: US, DE, IN, CN, IE) to map a company's global manufacturing footprint. Excludes: products at facility, inspection history, enforcement actions. Related: fda_get_facility (full facility detail by FEI including products and operations type), fda_inspections (inspection data by FEI), fda_citations (CFR violations by FEI). Endpoint: https://www.regdatalab.com/mcp
- fda_search_family_facilities (Search Family Facilities) - Search FDA-registered facilities across a parent company and any explicitly linked subsidiaries. Use this when you know the parent company but the FDA records may sit under child entities like Actavis, Watson, or Cephalon. Supports optional city, state, country, and operations filters. Endpoint: https://www.regdatalab.com/mcp
- fda_get_facility (Facility Detail) - Detailed facility profile by FEI number. Returns: facility name, full address, operations type (Manufacture, API, Repack, Contract Manufacture, etc.), establishment types (Manufacturer, Distributor, Specification Developer, etc.), registrant and owner/operator info, DUNS number, registration expiry, enforcement history (recalls), device products with classification, and a facility_risk_summary (inspection counts by classification, warning letters, last inspection date). Requires: FEI number — get it from fda_search_facilities or fda_company_full. Excludes: full inspection details and citations. Related: fda_inspections (inspection history by FEI), fda_citations (CFR violations by FEI), fda_compliance_actions (warning letters/seizures by FEI), fda_import_refusals (import refusal history by FEI), fda_facility_products (paginate large product lists). Endpoint: https://www.regdatalab.com/mcp
- fda_facility_dossier (Facility Compliance Dossier) - Compliance-first facility dossier by FEI number. Returns the facility profile plus recent inspections, citations, warning letters, import refusal history, import-alert mentions, recall context, freshness, and recommended next tools. Use this when you want the fastest FEI-level manufacturing risk view instead of the broader product-focused facility profile. Endpoint: https://www.regdatalab.com/mcp
- fda_facility_products (Facility Products) - List device products registered at a facility by FEI number with pagination. Returns product code, proprietary name, listing number, and classification details (device name, class, medical specialty). Note: fda_get_facility already includes products — use this only when paginating through large product lists. Drug products are not linked by FEI; use fda_search_ndc with company name instead. Requires: FEI number. Endpoint: https://www.regdatalab.com/mcp
- fda_search_enforcement (Search Recalls) - Search FDA enforcement actions (recalls) for drugs, devices, and food across all companies. Filter by company name (fuzzy match), recall classification (Class I=most serious/Class II/Class III), date range, or status (Ongoing/Terminated). Returns recall details including product description, reason, and distribution pattern. Related: fda_recall_facility_trace (trace a recall to its manufacturing facility by recall_number), fda_ires_enforcement (iRES recall data with cross-references), fda_device_recalls (device-specific recall data). Endpoint: https://www.regdatalab.com/mcp
- fda_search_recall_text (Full-Text Search Recalls) - Full-text search across recall reasons and product descriptions using PostgreSQL text search. Finds recalls mentioning specific terms (e.g. 'salmonella contamination', 'mislabeled', 'sterility'). Supports multi-word queries ranked by relevance. Filter by classification, product_type, or date range. Related: fda_search_enforcement (search by company name, classification, status), fda_recall_facility_trace (trace a recall to its manufacturing facility). Endpoint: https://www.regdatalab.com/mcp
- fda_resolve_company (Resolve Company Name) - Resolve a company name to its canonical company_id and list all known aliases. Returns the canonical slug, match confidence, and alias names. Read-only lookup — does not discover new aliases. Related: fda_suggest_subsidiaries (discover potential subsidiaries not yet aliased), fda_company_full (full profile using the resolved name). Endpoint: https://www.regdatalab.com/mcp
- fda_save_aliases (Save Company Aliases) - Save normalized alias names for a parent company, updating confidence and tracking collisions. Use this for true name variants of the same company record. If a collision says the alias already belongs to another company_id, use fda_link_subsidiaries instead of forcing the alias. Typical workflow: call fda_suggest_subsidiaries first, review results, then call this tool with confirmed same-entity alias names. Endpoint: https://www.regdatalab.com/mcp
- fda_link_subsidiaries (Link Subsidiaries) - Explicitly link existing company records under a parent company for family-level rollups. Use this when names like Actavis or Cephalon already belong to their own company_id and should roll up under a parent like Teva. This preserves alias collision safety while making manufacturing and facility summaries family-aware. Endpoint: https://www.regdatalab.com/mcp
- fda_suggest_subsidiaries (Discover Subsidiaries) - Discover subsidiary and related company names using FDA datasets first, then supplement with external corporate hierarchy sources (SEC EDGAR Exhibit 21 and GLEIF) when available. Costs 2 credits. Returns FDA name candidates, evidence-backed company-record suggestions, EDGAR subsidiaries, GLEIF subsidiaries, existing aliases, and facility coverage stats. The coverage.unlinked_feis count indicates how many facilities may be missing from the current alias set. The workflow is conservative and explainable: it validates candidates against FDA company records instead of auto-linking them. Note: EDGAR and GLEIF may lag recent acquisitions or divestitures, so missing external results do not rule out FDA-visible subsidiaries. Recommended workflow: 1. fda_suggest_subsidiaries, 2. fda_link_subsidiaries for distinct child companies or fda_save_aliases for true same-company variants, 3. fda_manufacturing_risk_summary or fda_search_family_facilities. Related: fda_link_subsidiaries (persist explicit family links), fda_save_aliases (persist same-entity names), fda_manufacturing_risk_summary (family-aware company rollup), fda_search_family_facilities (family-aware FEI search).
