Available tools 3

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

expiring
expiring_recompetes
List federal contracts EXPIRING in a horizon window (period-of-performance end), with a winner prediction for each. Filter by NAICS and agency. This is the recompete pipeline feed.
lane
lane_competitors
Return the firms with the most recent award velocity in a NAICS (and optional agency) lane — i.e. the likely bidders on any recompete in that lane, ranked by recent wins and dollars.
predict
predict_recompete
Predict WHO will win an expiring federal contract recompete. Pass a contract identifier (USAspending generated_internal_id / award gid) OR a NAICS+incumbent pair. Returns the incumbent with an adjusted incumbent-advantage probability plus top likely competitors ranked by recent award velocity in the NAICS/agency lane, the BASE RATES used, sample size, and an honest confidence band. Probabilistic estimate from PUBLIC USAspending data — not insider info.

Govcon Recompete — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Govcon Recompete do?
It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: expiring_recompetes, lane_competitors, predict_recompete. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Govcon Recompete working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 66 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Govcon Recompete?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Govcon Recompete need an API key?
No. Govcon Recompete completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 3 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Govcon Recompete?
It answers our handshake in 66 ms on average, which is faster than 94% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
