The clause date identifies the version of the returned clause or provision. Compare it with the clause date in the contract or solicitation before treating the returned text as the incorporated version. The Get regulation section MCP tool cannot select a historical clause date; its optional date controls only the agency applicability report. It is null for sections that are not clauses or provisions. Sort by clause_date on the Search regulations MCP tool to find recently revised clauses.
