Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

File ships in the package but is absent from the source [пакет] bin/cli.js:1, [пакет] src/index.js:1

Package points at a different repository grayson-sys/awardopedia

Runs an external command server/server.js:2463
            const text = execSync(`pdftotext "${path.join(pdfDir, file)}" -`, { timeout: 15000 }).toString()
Builds a database query by concatenation server/server.js:2614
        `UPDATE opportunity_intel SET ${updates.join(', ')}, updated_at = NOW() WHERE notice_id = $1`,
Reads files and sends them to the network server/server.js:2460
        const files = fs.readdirSync(pdfDir).filter(f => f.endsWith('.pdf')).sort()

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: AWARDOPEDIA_API_KEY (Free API key from awardopedia.com/signup). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Awardopedia - Federal Contracts — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Awardopedia - Federal Contracts?
Awardopedia - Federal Contracts runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package awardopedia-mcp was installed 28 times last week.
How do I connect Awardopedia - Federal Contracts?
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 runs locally, so the command pulls awardopedia-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Awardopedia - Federal Contracts?
The npm package awardopedia-mcp was installed 28 times in the last week. Week over week that is +67%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Awardopedia - Federal Contracts open source?
We cannot say either way: written in Python and 0 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
