- [OpenAPI spec](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/delaware-gov/openapi.json)

## Capabilities

- [Entity](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/delaware-gov/entities/entity): Free Delaware entity details for one file number (the ICIS 'Entity Details' page reached through the search postback): entity name, incorporation/formation date (M/D/YYYY as the site prints it), entity kind and type, residency, state, and the registered agent's name, address, city, county, state, postal code and phone. The site's paid status, franchise tax and filing history are not fetched. Fails with not_found when the registry reports 'No Records Found.' for the file number.
- [Registered agents](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/delaware-gov/entities/registered_agents): The Delaware Division of Corporations' list of registered agents (corp.delaware.gov/agents/, one static page, about 110 agents): name, street address lines, city, state, postal code, county, phone, fax, email and website as the Division publishes them. Optional case-insensitive substring filter on the agent name.
- [Search](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/delaware-gov/entities/search): Search the Delaware ICIS entity registry by entity name (substring, case-insensitive; wrap the name in double quotes for the site's exact-name search) or by file number. Returns up to 50 rows of file number and entity name; the site caps a query at 50 rows without pagination, reported as `truncated: true` with the site's notice. No legal status is included (the site sells that separately).
