What it does
MCP server for searching live government surplus auction listings, retrieving sold prices for comparable items, and calculating resale scores. Built for developers and agents working with GovAuctions.app data on government-surplus auctions from GSA and other sellers.
- Search live government surplus auction listings by location, category, price range, or keyword to find specific items for purchase or resale.
- Look up historical sold prices (25th, median, 75th percentile) for comparable items from past government auctions to estimate value.
- Get a Flip Score (0–100 resale signal) for a listing to see estimated value, effective bid, and discount before bidding.

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.
