# SIA Agent API

> A machine-payable API and MCP server delivering UK private-security (SIA)
> regulatory change intelligence to autonomous agents. It reports when official
> GOV.UK guidance on SIA licensing, renewals, and training changes.

## What it is
- Change-detection feed over public GOV.UK / SIA guidance pages (OGL v3, Crown copyright).
- Our own derived analysis, not a copy of the SIA register of licence holders.
- Built for AI agents doing private-security compliance, onboarding, or vetting workflows.

## Access
- HTTP JSON API and an MCP server (tools: list_sources, recent_changes, changes_since).
- Free tier: source list and latest changes (rate-limited).
- Paid tier: full change history via API key or x402 machine payment (USDC on Base).

## Not offered
- Individual licence-holder lookups. The SIA register is personal data and is
  designed to be checked one record at a time on GOV.UK; we do not resell it.
