    Use when the user already has a VIN, lot number or supported slug and needs the current normalized vehicle record. Request include history and/or vin_lots when the same tool call should also return retained sale history or other known auction lots for the same VIN.

Tools (8)

calculate_shippingread-onlyUse when the user asks for supported auction-to-port shipping pricing for a known vehicle. Supply either VIN or lot_number; optionally narrow the destination with port or port_id. Availability depends on auction location and route data.
get_api_usageread-onlyUse to inspect request usage and current plan limits for the supplied X-API-Key. This is account/API-quota metadata, not vehicle data.
get_related_vehiclesread-onlyUse after identifying a specific vehicle to retrieve related supported auction records for comparison or discovery. Do not use as a substitute for a broad filtered inventory search.
get_vehicleread-onlyUse when the user already has a VIN, lot number or supported slug and needs the current normalized vehicle record. Request include history and/or vin_lots when the same tool call should also return retained sale history or other known auction lots for the same VIN.
get_vehicle_filtersread-onlyUse before building a dynamic search UI or validating source-backed filter choices. Returns current filter metadata; it does not search inventory itself.
get_vehicle_historyread-onlyUse for retained Copart + IAAI auction appearances for one supported vehicle. This is auction-specific history, not complete ownership, registration or accident history.
list_auction_locationsread-onlyUse to resolve supported auction yards, branches or facilities and their location metadata. Use calculate_shipping when the user needs auction-to-port pricing instead.
search_auction_vehiclesread-onlyUse for broad inventory discovery, filtering and incremental synchronization across supported Copart and IAA / IAAI records. For one known VIN or lot use get_vehicle; for retained auction appearances use get_vehicle_history.
