Grants.gov MCP — open federal funding opportunities, no auth.

Tools

Live (proxies Grants.gov’s search2 API — currently-open coverage only):

• search_opportunities(keyword?, status?, agencies?, funding_categories?, aln?, limit?, offset?) — filter open opportunities.
• get_opportunity(opportunity_id) — full record with synopsis, eligibility, attachments.

Local mirror (fleet #2512 — closed, archived and forecasted history the live API cannot serve):

• search_historical_opportunities(agency_code?, cfda?, keyword?, status?, opportunity_category?, post_date_from?, post_date_to?, limit?, offset?) — search the FULL extract, every status, back to 2004.
• get_historical_opportunity(opportunity_id) — one record, any status, with a computed status.
• agency_posting_trend(agency_code, years?) — an agency’s opportunity count / funding by federal fiscal year.

Data sources

• Live: https://api.grants.gov/v1/api/ — public POST-JSON API, no key required.
• Mirror: Grants.gov’s own daily full-catalog XML extract (grants.gov/xml-extract -> prod-grants-gov-chatbot.s3.amazonaws.com/extracts/GrantsDBExtract<YYYYMMDD>v2.zip, no auth). Loaded into Supabase grants_gov_opportunities (supabase/migrations/226_grants_gov_extract.sql) by scripts/grants-gov-upsert.sh via .github/workflows/grants-gov-refresh.yml (workflow_dispatch for now — see that workflow for why no schedule: is wired yet). Every mirror response carries data_as_of, the last successful refresh.
