SAM.gov

Overview

SAM.gov is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server: SAM.gov readiness, entities, exclusions, opportunities, awards, hierarchy, and subawards. 20 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 sam-gov-mcp (via uvx) speaks MCP over stdio on your machine. Configuration happens through environment variables — you'll need SAM_API_KEY. The current release is v1.0.12, published under the MIT license, with source at 1102tools-dev/federal-contracting-mcps on GitHub, where it has earned 20 stars.

You'll find SAM.gov 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.
