Claude Code tool verifies UK and Norway company filings

A new tool called registry-mcp, accessible via Claude Code, allows users to verify the legitimacy and filing status of companies in the UK and Norway. The tool provides consistent JSON output regardless of the country, detailing information such as company name, legal status, registration date, and VAT status where available. It also highlights filing deadlines, indicating if a company is overdue, and handles country code and company ID normalization, though it notes that the UK system does not have built-in error checking for transposed digits.
