Govtoolspro MCP Server

An MCP server that gives Claude (and any MCP client) workflow tools for federal contractors - not raw data access, but decisions: go/no-go scoring, incumbent intelligence, teaming-partner search, recompete prediction, Navy NECO lookup, SAM.gov solicitation retrieval, and market intelligence (labor rates, award patterns, market analysis). Its 10 documented tools cluster into read & search, analyze, balance, score.

People connecting automation tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

01 · Install Govtoolspro MCP Server

before you install - you'll need

Set GOVTOOLSPRO_API_KEY before connecting.

Claude Code

claude mcp add smythmyke-govtoolspro-mcp-server -- npx -y govtoolspro-mcp-server

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "smythmyke-govtoolspro-mcp-server": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "govtoolspro-mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key

02 · Evidence

Security posture

What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.

runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions

license MIT - declared in the repository

npm package govtoolspro-mcp-server - unscoped; check the name against the project README before installing

registry namespace io.github.smythmyke is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner

Limitations (from the README)

- Workflow MCP, not a data wrapper. Competing govcon MCPs return raw SAM.gov/FPDS JSON; these tools return synthesized decisions. - CUI safety. The API rejects content with CUI / FOUO / Distribution-Statement markings; those rejections surface to the client as clear errors. Do not submit controlled content. - No warranty. Output is decision support only - not legal, contractual, or award-outcome advice.
