Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote MCP server for searching US federal contract opportunities and awards, with agency spending breakdowns and trending solicitation sectors.

What you can do
Search SAM.gov opportunities and USASpending/FPDS contract awards by keyword, agency, NAICS code, state, value range, status and posting date, newest first, with results deduplicated across both sources. Retrieve the full record for a single solicitation number. Get an agency's spend by NAICS code and its top awardees for a fiscal year. See sectors ranked by new-solicitation volume over a chosen window. Pull a curated daily procurement brief, or a cheaper top-five summary of it as structured JSON. Look up the provider's data-network directory and attestation information.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs to research federal procurement: finding open solicitations that match a company's capabilities, checking who has won awards from an agency, or tracking which sectors are heating up. A good fit for bid research, market sizing and competitive analysis on US government contracts.
Requirements
A remote Streamable HTTP endpoint; nothing to install locally. No account or key is needed for the free tier. An optional agent_id parameter scopes the free allowance, and an optional Authorization Bearer key bypasses the paywall. Network access to the hosted endpoint is required.
Before you install
Most tools are metered: 25 paid-tool queries per day per agent are free, then each query costs $0.01 through an x402 payment challenge that requires a payment transaction signature; the daily brief costs $10 and its summary $0.50. Treat these as real spending. The optional bearer key is a credential and should be kept secret. Queries are sent to a third-party hosted service that aggregates SAM.gov and USASpending data.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Government Contracts MCP in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

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/io.github.FoundryNet%2Fgov-contracts-mcp/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.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Government Contracts MCP

Government contract search and federal procurement data for AI agents. Search SAM.gov opportunities and USASpending.gov / FPDS contract awards from one aggregated, deduplicated dataset — plus contract detail, agency spending breakdowns, and trending solicitation sectors.

Free tier: 25 paid-tool queries/day per agent (plus unlimited free contract_detail). Pass agent_id to scope your allowance. After that, each query costs $0.01 per query via x402: the tool returns an HTTP-402 with a payment memo — complete the returned payment challenge, then re-call with the same arguments plus payment_tx=<signature>. An Authorization: Bearer fnet_… key bypasses the paywall.

Data sources

  • SAM.gov Opportunities API — open solicitations / opportunity notices.
  • USASpending.gov Award API — awarded contracts (FPDS data flows through here).

A background agent refreshes the dataset every 6 hours; agency_spending queries USASpending live so it always reflects the full federal record.
