Available tools 7

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

agency

find_agency

Resolve a federal agency name fragment to its official awarding-agency names (toptier and subtier) as USAspending knows them - use before search_awards or spending_by_category when unsure of the exact agency name. Keyless.

award

get_award

Get full detail for one federal award from USAspending.gov by its generated award id (from search_awards results, e.g. "CONT_AWD_...") - description, obligations, period of performance, awarding/funding agencies, recipient, and place of performance. Keyless.

awards

search_awards

Search actual federal contract awards on USAspending.gov - who won what, from which agency, for how much. Filter by keywords, NAICS, PSC, recipient name, agency, date range, and award amount. Keyless and unlimited. Call this for competitive intelligence ("who holds contracts in this space"), incumbent research, or agency spending patterns.

lookup

lookup_entity

Look up a federal contractor registration in SAM.gov by Unique Entity ID (UEI) or legal business name: registration status, CAGE code, physical address, business types (SDVOSB, 8(a), HUBZone, etc.), and NAICS codes. Call this to vet a teaming partner, check a competitor, or confirm an entity is award-eligible. Public registration sections only. Requires the caller's own free SAM.gov API key (X-Sam-Api-Key header or sam_api_key argument).

naics

find_naics

Resolve an industry description to NAICS codes (or look up what a NAICS code means). Use before search_opportunities/search_awards to get the right code. Keyless.

opportunities

search_opportunities

Search active federal contract opportunities on SAM.gov: solicitations, presolicitations, sources sought, RFIs, and award notices - filterable by keywords, NAICS, set-aside (SDVOSB, 8(a), HUBZone, WOSB, small business), notice type, agency, and posted-date range (max 1 year). Call this when the user wants to find federal bidding opportunities or market intelligence on what agencies are buying. Requires the caller's own free SAM.gov API key (X-Sam-Api-Key header or sam_api_key argument); without one it returns an error explaining how to get and pass a key.

spending

spending_by_category

Aggregate federal contract spending by NAICS, PSC, recipient, or awarding agency over a date range, optionally filtered by keywords/NAICS/agency - market sizing in one call ("top contractors in NAICS 541512 last year", "which agencies buy the most cybersecurity"). Keyless.

How do I connect MacTech Federal Market?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does MacTech Federal Market need an API key?

No. MacTech Federal Market completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 7 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

It answers our handshake in 377 ms on average, which is faster than 39% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
