What this API does

Return one bounded filing-history page for an exact company number, optionally filtered by up to five official filing categories. Results preserve transaction identity, type, category, processing date, description, page count, paper-filing state and the canonical company filing-history link. Filing-document download and all filing actions are excluded.

Agents select this operation with tool ID companies-house.filing-history, then inspect its current executable contract before a run.
