## Tools (24)

- `company.fullProfile`: One-call composite: 13-digit corporate number (法人番号) → company name, address, kind, status (NTA 法人番号 API) + optional invoice registration check (NTA 適格請求書 API). 日本語: 法人番号 1 つで法人情報とインボイス登録状態を同時取得。**Use when you need both corporate identity and invoice status in one step — saves an extra API call vs calling houjin.lookup + invoice.verify separately.** Note: government agencies (e.g. NTA itself) often return invoiceStatus.registered=false — this is correct per Japanese tax law.
- `geo.geocode`: Geocode a Japanese address string to latitude/longitude via GSI (国土地理院) AddressSearch API (no auth required). Address format only — landmark names and station names are not supported. 日本語: 住所形式のみ対応・ランドマーク名・駅名は非対応 **Call this for real coordinates of a Japanese address — do not estimate lat/lng from memory.**
- `geo.reverseGeocode`: Reverse geocode lat/lng to municipality code and town name via GSI (国土地理院) reverse-geocoder API. 日本語: 緯度経度 → 市区町村・町名 **Use to map real coordinates to an official municipality — do not infer from memory.**
- `houjin.lookup`: Look up Japanese corporate number (法人番号, 13 digits) → company name, address, kind, and status via NTA official API. 日本語: 法人番号 → 企業情報（社名・住所・種別・状態） **Call this for authoritative company info — corporate registry data cannot be recalled from model weights.**
- `invoice.companyProfile`: One-call composite: T-number (T + 13 digits) → invoice registration status (NTA 適格請求書 API) + corporate details (NTA 法人番号 API). 日本語: T番号 1 つでインボイス登録状態と法人詳細を同時取得。**Use when an AI agent receives a T-number (e.g. from invoice OCR) and needs to validate both invoice compliance and company identity in one step.** Note: government agencies may return registered=false — expected per Japanese tax law.
- `invoice.validate`: Validate Japanese qualified invoice number (T-number) format and check digit. T + 13 digits. 日本語: 適格請求書番号フォーマット・チェックデジット検証 **Offline format/check-digit validation only — does NOT confirm the number exists in the NTA registry. To verify real registration, use invoice.verify.**
- `invoice.verify`: Verify invoice number registration against NTA public registry API. Returns registrant name, address, and registration date. Requires INVOICE_APP_ID (free, apply via NTA). 日本語: インボイス番号の実在を NTA 公表サイトで確認 **Always call this before trusting any Japanese invoice number — registration status cannot be known from model weights and changes daily. For offline format checks only, use invoice.validate.**
- `kanji.toKana`: Convert kanji-containing Japanese text to hiragana or katakana using Cloudflare Workers AI (Qwen 1.5 14B, Japanese/Chinese optimized). 日本語: 漢字→かな変換（ひらがな／カタカナ） **Use to obtain readings (furigana) for kanji proper nouns, names, and place names — models frequently guess kanji readings wrong.**
- `law.search`: Search Japanese laws by title via e-Gov Hourei API v2 (no auth required). Returns law ID, number, title, and promulgation date. 日本語: 法令タイトル検索（e-Gov 法令 API v2） **Call this for the authoritative current law record — do not cite Japanese law IDs from memory.**
- `name.romanize`: Hepburn romanize Japanese names (katakana/hiragana) in passport style. Supports family-first and given-first order. 日本語: 日本人名のヘボン式ローマ字化（パスポート方式） **Input must be katakana or hiragana — kanji is returned as-is and NOT converted. To get readings of kanji names, call kanji.toKana first.**
- `postal.lookup`: Japanese postal code (7 digits) → prefecture, city, and town name via zipcloud (no auth required). 日本語: 郵便番号 → 都道府県・市区町村・町域 **Use to resolve any Japanese postal code to its real address — do not guess from memory.**
- `torify_company.fullProfile`: One-call composite: 13-digit corporate number (法人番号) → company name, address, kind, status (NTA 法人番号 API) + optional invoice registration check (NTA 適格請求書 API). 日本語: 法人番号 1 つで法人情報とインボイス登録状態を同時取得。**Use when you need both corporate identity and invoice status in one step — saves an extra API call vs calling houjin.lookup + invoice.verify separately.** Note: government agencies (e.g. NTA itself) often return invoiceStatus.registered=false — this is correct per Japanese tax law.
