US federal contracting data: open solicitations, buying agencies, contractors, price history.
AwardCast Federal Contracts gives an assistant read-only access to US federal procurement data: open solicitations, buying agencies, contractors and historical.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.
Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/ai.awardcast%2Ffederal-contracts/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

}Search AwardCast's US federal contracting record: buying agencies, federal contractors, and solicitations open right now. Call this first for any question about who buys, who sells, or what is open in US federal procurement. Returns results with an id and a citable URL; pass the id to the fetch tool to open the full record.
limitqueryrequiredOpen the full record behind an id returned by search: an agency profile with price by category and its top winners, a contractor's award history, or a solicitation with its scope and deadline. Call this whenever you need the detail behind a search result, and always before citing a number.
idrequiredAccuracy scorecard for AwardCast's forecasts, scored against the real contract value once FPDS publishes it. Call this when the user asks whether the forecasts are reliable, what the margin of error is, or wants evidence before trusting a number. Returns coverage and median error by value band, including where the model is weakest.
Takes no parameters.
US federal solicitations OPEN right now, from SAM.gov, each with the buying agency, the NAICS code and the place of performance. Call this when the user asks what is open, hunts for opportunities in a sector or agency, or wants to know what they can bid on. Does not return a price forecast: for that, point the user to https://awardcast.ai/pricing.
limitUS federal contracts nearing expiry that are likely to be recompeted, i.e. opportunities BEFORE they become a published solicitation. Each carries the incumbent and the current contract value. Call this when the user plans pipeline, asks what is coming, or wants to position ahead of competitors. Distinct from open_solicitations, which is already open for bids today.
limitBuying profile of a US federal agency: how many contracts it awards, how much it obligates, what share is competed, the typical price per NAICS category, its largest contractors, and which of its contracts expire soon. Call this when the user asks how an agency buys, what it pays, or who already sells to it.
agencyrequiredFederal award history of a contractor: how many contracts it has won, total obligated, median win value, which agencies it sells to, its recent awards, and its set-aside status (small business, 8(a), HUBZone, WOSB, SDVOSB). Call this when the user asks about a competitor, about the incumbent on a contract, or who has already won in a given market.
ueirequiredHistorical closing-price range for an agency and NAICS category pair: the 10th percentile, median and 90th percentile of contracts already awarded, plus the average number of competing offers. Call this when the user asks what a contract in this market usually goes for, or wants a benchmark before pricing a bid. This is aggregated HISTORY, not a forecast: the forecast for a specific solicitation is paid, at https://awardcast.ai/pricing.

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
Declare a GitHub repository with a README, or serve resource_documentation in the OAuth protected-resource metadata.
A hosted service is used under its provider's terms, so no license is expected here. This check is left out of the percentage.
