FARA has no server-side search, so this fetches the bulk active-registrant dump (~556 rows) once and filters CLIENT-SIDE by a name substring (case-insensitive); results are capped. Set status=\"terminated\" to search the much larger terminated dump (~6,500 rows, ~1.4MB fetched once). Returns each registrant's name, registration_number (use it with list_foreign_principals / get_registrant_documents), address and registration_date. Keyless. |\n| `list_foreign_principals` | List the FOREIGN principals (foreign governments, parties, companies, individuals) that a given FARA registrant represents — i.e. who a US agent is working for. Addressed server-side by registration_number (get one from search_registrants). Optionally filter the returned set CLIENT-SIDE by country or principal-name substring. Set status=\"terminated\" for former relationships. Returns principal_name, country, registrant_name, registration_date and address. Keyless. |\n| `get_registrant_documents` | List FARA filings (PDF documents) for a registrant by registration_number (from search_registrants) — registration statements, supplemental statements, informational materials, exhibits, etc. Each row links the document to the specific foreign principal/country it concerns and gives a direct PDF URL. Optionally filter CLIENT-SIDE by document_type or country substring. Results are capped. Keyless. |\n\n## Quick Start\n\nAdd to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):\n\n```json\n{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"fara\": {\n      \"url\": \"https://gateway.pipeworx.io/fara/mcp\"\n    }\n  }\n}\n```\n\n### What this endpoint actually serves\n\n`tools/list` at `https://gateway.pipeworx.io/fara/mcp` returns the tools in the table\nabove **plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools** — `ask_pipeworx`,\n`discover_tools`, `search_within`, `remember`/`recall` and the rest of the\ngateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a\nsingle-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the\npack's own. The connection's `initialize` response states its exact scope, and\nis the authoritative answer for a given day.\n\nThis is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a\nscoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via\n`ask_pipeworx`, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a\nsecond MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without\nthem; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth,\nconnect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.\n\nOr connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed\ndirectly, instead of just this one's:\n\n```json\n{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"pipeworx\": {\n      \"url\": \"https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp\"\n    }\n  }\n}\n```\n\nBoth URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1476+ data sources. The\nonly difference is which pack's tools are listed **directly**; `ask_pipeworx`\nreaches all of them from either one.\n\n## Using with ask_pipeworx\n\nInstead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English —\nthis works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:\n\n```\nask_pipeworx({ question: \"your question about Fara data\" })\n```\n\nThe gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.\n\n## More\n\n- [Docs and guides](https://pipeworx.io/docs)\n- [pipeworx.io](https://pipeworx.io)\n\n## License\n\nMIT\n",
