Remote MCP server for US government contracting data: bid search, award history, expiring contracts, forecasts, protests and exclusions.
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/co.bidcatch%2Fbidcatch/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.

tierqueryrequiredstateopen_onlySearch federal contract award history — who won what, for how much, and when. Use it to size up incumbents, price work, or find buyers. Requires a BidCatch intel key.
sortqueryrequiredstateList federal contracts nearing expiration — each one a competition about to reopen. Filter by keyword, NAICS code, or state. Requires a BidCatch intel key.
naicsquerystateList an agency's published procurement forecast — planned contract actions with estimated values and timelines, in the agency's own words. Planning-grade data; entries can be revised or cancelled. Requires a BidCatch intel key.
agencyrequiredSearch Government Accountability Office (GAO) bid protest decisions — who challenged an award, and whether the referee sustained or denied it. Requires a BidCatch intel key.
queryrequiredCheck SAM.gov's exclusion (debarment) list for a company or person — entities the government has barred from receiving federal contracts or subcontracts. Run this before teaming with or subcontracting to anyone: one excluded partner can poison a bid. Match by exact company name or UEI; a state filter disambiguates common names. Records come from SAM.gov's published exclusions extract, refreshed weekly.
ueinamestateFind who a company teams with on federal contracts — the primes it subcontracts for and the subcontractors under it. Built from prime-reported subcontract records (USAspending/FSRS): real reported relationships, not guesses. Use it before a recompete to map an incumbent's bench, or to find primes a subcontractor already works with. Requires a BidCatch intel key.
ueirolecompanyFilter federal contract awards by exact fields — recipient, awarding agency, NAICS code, state — instead of keyword search. Includes a single-bid filter for awards that drew exactly one offer. Use this when you know the slice you want; use get_award_history for topic/keyword search. Requires a BidCatch intel key.

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.
