}What it does
This MCP server exposes USASpending.gov data on federal awards, subawards, recipients, agencies, and accounts. It is part of a suite of federal contracting data servers and is intended for developers building tools that query live federal spending data instead of relying on cached information.
- Look up details about federal contract awards and their recipients from USASpending.gov.
- Query information about federal agencies and their associated accounts.
- Retrieve subaward data to trace the flow of federal funding through contractor networks.
This entry comes from the registry but points to no public repository, so there is nothing to check: no commit history, no source, no tool list. It is listed for completeness and left out of search engines.
Before you enable it
An MCP server runs with whatever access you give it. Start with a development account rather than production, and check which tools the server exposes before you let an agent call them unattended.
