Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on.
If a tool disappears, we record the date.
builder
builder_checks
Neutral lookup of sourced public records (LBP Board disciplinary decisions, Gazette liquidation notices, Official Assignee notices, MBIE prosecutions) the website has collected. With no query: an overview with counts, dates checked and sources. With a query (name or company): name matches only, each with its source link. A name match is not proof of identity and a record is not a quality rating. No credits.
get_builder
Full public profile for one directory listing (any trade): where they work, project types, credentials, register details, rating, status badge with date, published contact details, and provenance (source and date checked). Pass a slug (from search_builders) or the builder's name. detail=full costs 2 credits for paid keys; free use returns the summary.
builders
search_builders
Search the Compare Auckland Builds directory of Auckland new-build and renovation builders (about 300 listings, each checked against its own website and public registers). Filter by suburb, project type, credential, register status and minimum rating. Returns organic results plus, always first and clearly labelled, any paid 'Sponsored' featured listings for the suburb (these cannot be filtered out or limited away). Free use returns at most 5 organic results per call.
businesses
search_businesses
Same as search_builders, but the default is ANY trade on a new build or renovation (builders, plumbers, electricians, landscapers, architects ... see list_trades). Pass trade to narrow to one. Sponsored (featured) listings come first for the trade searched, labelled, and cannot be filtered away. Trades other than builders may have no listings yet.
compare
compare_builders
Side-by-side comparison of 2 to 20 listings of any trade (slugs or names; the trade is shown for each): status badge, base, project types, credentials, rating, register details. Paid keys: 2 credits per builder with the richer fields; free use gets the summary comparison.
how
how_to_get_quotes
Links and a short checklist for getting and comparing quotes: the website's project brief and shortlist tools. Contains no personal data and this server never receives a user's name, phone or email. Optionally pass a suburb to include its page and any Sponsored featured builders there.
open
get_open_leads
Recent public job leads in Auckland (from third-party marketplaces) that builders can respond to, by suburb and/or trade. Links go to the original posting; no personal details are included. 1 credit per lead for paid keys; free use max 5 per call.
project
list_project_types
Project types used by the directory (new builds, kitchens, bathrooms ...) with the number of listings for each, plus the most common credentials. No credits.
suburbs
list_suburbs
Auckland suburbs and areas covered by the directory, with region and profile page link. No credits.
trades
list_trades
The 42 trades involved in New Builds and Renovations in three groups (Building trades, Siteworks trades, Professional services), each with a plain-English description, the NZ licensing or registration body to check, the page URL and the number of directory listings. No credits.
usage
my_usage
Shows how many free calls are left this hour/day, or for a paid key the credit balance, expiry dates and recent usage. No credits.
