# analyze_prosecution_history

Analyze the full prosecution history of a trademark — narrative timeline of office actions, responses, examiner decisions, and current status, with examiner-behavior patterns. For authenticated users this launches asynchronously (usually done in under a minute; longer for large file histories) and returns a processing handle — then call get_prosecution_history_status to fetch the completed result. Tell the user it is running.

## Why analyze_prosecution_history is rated Low

This tool performs read-only data retrieval and analysis of USPTO trademark prosecution records. While it may involve some computational analysis, it has no side effects—it neither modifies trademark records, deletes data, executes code with external consequences, nor involves financial transactions. The asynchronous processing is internal analysis only.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool retrieves and analyzes existing trademark prosecution history data: 'narrative timeline of office actions, responses, examiner decisions, and current status.' The description emphasizes querying and returning analysis of historical records."
