## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## SEC Proxy Governance and Vote Normalizer

S10 normalizes bounded, evidence-bound public SEC proxy meeting/proposal and
8-K Item 5.07 issuer-vote records. The direct source layer resolves official
SEC submissions and primary documents with no redirects, at most three
attempts, eight requests per second, and the configured request/byte/result
ceilings. It validates input before source work and persists only
Pydantic-validated Dataset, `SUMMARY`, and bounded `ERRORS` records; response
bodies, exception text, and input values are never persisted.

The runtime parser handles conservative HTML layouts only: numbered proxy
proposal headings plus annual/special meeting dates, and Item 5.07 tables with
exactly one result row. It never aggregates director-election rows or infers a
missing title, vote, or outcome. Fixed opt-in live preflight sources cover
Apple's 2026 DEF 14A (`0001308179-26-000008`, `aapl014016-def14a.htm`) and
Item 5.07 8-K (`0001140361-26-006577`, `ef20060722_8k.htm`). The two real
minimal inputs are in [`examples`](examples/).

CIK requests resolve SEC submissions. Exact-accession requests are supported
only with `filerCik`; an accession prefix is not a filer CIK and is never used
to construct an archive URL. N-PX remains explicitly unsupported in this
version: the actor emits `PARSER_UNSUPPORTED` rather than fabricating fund-vote
records. It emits contract-valid `secGovernanceRecord` rows only and neither
scores governance/ESG quality nor provides legal, investment, or voting advice.

See [the implementation specification](docs/implementation-spec.md) and
[S10 suite specification](../docs/sec-complete-suite/specialty-actors.md#8-s10-sec-proxy-governance-and-vote-normalizer).

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("bb-tradetec/sec-proxy-governance-and-vote-normalizer").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = {}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("bb-tradetec/sec-proxy-governance-and-vote-normalizer").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call bb-tradetec/sec-proxy-governance-and-vote-normalizer --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,bb-tradetec/sec-proxy-governance-and-vote-normalizer"
        }
    }
}

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
