GSA Per Diem

Overview

GSA Per Diem is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server: GSA Per Diem federal travel lodging and M&IE rates. 6 tools. As an MCP server it plugs straight into AI assistants, exposing its functionality as tools the model can invoke on your behalf.

It runs locally: the Python package gsa-perdiem-mcp (via uvx) speaks MCP over stdio on your machine. Configuration happens through environment variables — you'll need PERDIEM_API_KEY. The current release is v0.2.6, published under the MIT license, with source at 1102tools/federal-contracting-mcps on GitHub, where it has earned 20 stars.

You'll find GSA Per Diem in the Development category here on mcp.site; it connects to Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and any other MCP client — see the install snippets below.
