Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on.
If a tool disappears, we record the date.
analyze
analyze_federal_grant
Use this when the user needs a sourced go/no-go pursuit screen for one U.S. federal grant using a non-personal organization profile and the official opportunity record. The current preview is always free and explicitly marks unresolved project relevance, document, or award-history evidence. Do not use it for discovery only, legal eligibility advice, award prediction, drafting, or submission.
analyze_nofo_requirements
Use this after the document manifest, when the user needs the requirements stated inside a U.S. federal grant's official announcement — eligibility, cost share, deadlines, page limits, required submissions and evaluation criteria — each with the document, page and exact source text it came from. It returns CONFIRMED, CONFLICT, UNKNOWN or EXTRACTION_INCOMPLETE per requirement and never fills a gap with an inference. It does not determine legal eligibility, predict an award, draft, or submit.
federal
get_federal_grant_evidence_pack
Use this limited free-beta tool after search or preview when the user wants a complete, versioned hard-gate and award-history evidence pack for one U.S. federal grant. It never requests payment during the beta. The service has a global daily beta capacity and counts only newly released complete results; reuse request_id for retries. It does not evaluate semantic project relevance, determine legal eligibility, predict an award, draft, or submit.
search_federal_grants
Use this when the user needs to find current or forecasted U.S. federal grant opportunities by topic. It returns official identifiers and source URLs for follow-up analysis. Do not use it to decide eligibility, predict an award, write an application, or submit anything.
compare
compare_grant_amendments
Use this when the user needs to know what changed between revisions of a U.S. federal grant opportunity — deadlines, cost share, eligibility, funding — with the before and after value for each change and how much it matters. It reads the official revision history and reports what Grants.gov itself declared changed alongside the computed difference. It does not read announcement documents, assess eligibility, predict an award, draft, or submit.
grant
get_grant_document_manifest
Use this when the user needs to know which official documents a U.S. federal grant opportunity has, which revision is current, and whether the official record is complete. It returns every Full Announcement, revised announcement, supporting document and application package Grants.gov holds, with official download URLs. It does not read the documents, assess eligibility, predict an award, draft, or submit.
submit
submit_federal_grant_profile_v2_beta
Use this opt-in free-beta tool only when the user wants to test opportunity 359701 against current actual non-personal organization, project, and readiness facts. The user must explicitly attest that the facts are current, explicitly confirm intent to apply to this opportunity, and consent to storing the resulting pointer-only pack for 30 days. The raw profile, names, contact details, identifiers, narratives, documents, and credentials are not stored. Missing facts remain NEEDS_INPUT. It does not determine legal eligibility, predict an award, draft, or submit an application.

Federal Grant Evidence — questions
Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Among them: analyze_federal_grant, analyze_nofo_requirements, compare_grant_amendments, get_federal_grant_evidence_pack, get_grant_document_manifest, search_federal_grants and 1 more.

How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
What is Federal Grant Evidence mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around analyze and federal. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is Federal Grant Evidence working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 93 of 93 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 520 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Federal Grant Evidence?
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 Federal Grant Evidence need an API key?
No. Federal Grant Evidence 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.
How fast is Federal Grant Evidence?
It answers our handshake in 520 ms on average, which is faster than 30% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
