A practical carrier-review path

  1. fmcsa_carrier_lookup — retrieve the public carrier snapshot using a DOT or MC number.
  2. fmcsa_carrier_authority — check the authority and insurance details available from FMCSA.
  3. fmcsa_safety_scores — review available BASIC safety indicators and the date returned.
  4. carrier_vetting_evidence_pack — produce a dated, source-linked pack with a reviewer checklist.
  5. counterparty_risk_score — optionally assemble a cross-source risk view for human review.

Workflow tools for a real queue

carrier_vetting_batch
Screen up to ten DOT numbers at once and export markdown, JSON, or CSV for a lane roster or onboarding queue.
load_tender_fraud_shield
Check a carrier against the current tender details and return clear, reviewable flags before a load is assigned.
carrier_monitor_recheck
Compare a saved snapshot with a new check so authority, insurance, safety, and verdict changes are visible.

These workflows support a first-pass review and evidence trail. They do not replace direct FMCSA, insurance, identity, or human compliance checks.

Where brokers use it

New-carrier onboarding
Create a repeatable first-pass evidence packet before a carrier enters the network.
Exception review
Give an operations reviewer source details and known gaps when a record needs a closer look.
Agent-assisted operations
Let an MCP client gather the same public checks while keeping the final decision with your team.
