Find U.S. federal grants and return cited hard-gate and award-history evidence packs.
Federal Grant Evidence MCP
Federal Grant Evidence (xyz.utilityhouse/federal-grant-evidence) is an MCP server that finds current U.S. federal grant opportunities in Grants.gov, compares a bounded non-personal organization profile against cited βhard-gates,β and returns a versioned award-history evidence pack when required official evidence is complete.
π οΈ Key Features
Tooling count: 3
Source-backed pursuit screening for U.S. federal grants
Grants.gov record retrieval and comparison to cited hard gates
Versioned award-history evidence pack output (when official evidence is complete)
π Use Cases
Evidence-pack generation for grant opportunity screening
Reviewing hard-gate requirements using cited evidence from Grants.gov records
β‘ Developer Benefits
MCP-based access to federal-grant research workflows
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.
Parameters2
query
string
required
Topic or phrase such as community oral health
limit
integer
optional
Maximum results, from 1 to 20

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.
Parameters2
opportunity_id
string
required
Numeric Grants.gov opportunity id from search_federal_grants
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.
Parameters3
request_id
string
required
Caller-generated stable idempotency key; reuse it for retries
Federal Grant Evidence is an independent UtilityHouse product for source-backed pursuit screening of U.S. federal grant opportunities. It finds current Grants.gov records, compares a bounded non-personal organization profile with cited hard gates, and can return a versioned award-history evidence pack when the required official evidence is complete.
It does not determine legal eligibility, predict awards, draft applications, or submit applications. It is not affiliated with Grants.gov or the U.S. government.
Federal Grant Evidence opportunity-screening interface
Free-beta access
https://grants.utilityhouse.xyz/mcp
The full remote MCP surface advertises seven tools:
get_grant_document_manifest β list the official attachment set and its completeness state.
get_federal_grant_evidence_pack β complete versioned pack when available.
submit_federal_grant_profile_v2_beta β opt-in opportunity 359701 proof from user-attested current non-personal facts; raw profile not retained.
The hosted MCP endpoints below expose the full seven-tool surface. Apify is an
intentional three-operation read-only subset for Actor users; it does not
accept the opt-in proof write and its listing must say so explicitly.
All advertised tools are free during the limited beta. The complete pack and opt-in proof share a limit of 100 newly released results per UTC day. The proof path requires explicit current-fact attestation, explicit intent to apply to opportunity 359701, and explicit consent to retain only the derived result for 30 days. No wallet, payment authorization, or blockchain transaction is requested. A future paid release is separate and mainnet remains locked.
For aggregate channel attribution, directory and client integrations use equivalent channel-specific endpoints:

Every endpoint exposes the same advertised tools and the same free-beta behavior. The service stores only aggregate Korea calendar date (Asia/Seoul), channel, tool, outcome, and count in usage analytics. The separate opt-in proof path stores a derived pointer-only pack and attestation receipt for 30 days after explicit consent, but never the raw profile. Usage analytics do not store caller identity, request bodies, organization profiles, result contents, wallet data, or transaction data.
Install
Agent Plugins clients
This repository implements Agent Plugins 1.0 with a root plugin.json and mcp.json. Compatible clients can install the repository directly.
Claude
Add a custom web connector with the Claude endpoint. In Claude Code:
sh
claude mcp add --transport http federal-grant-evidence https://grants.utilityhouse.xyz/mcp/claude
The repository also includes a validated Claude plugin manifest, remote MCP configuration, and a narrowly scoped tool-routing skill for submission to the official Claude Plugin Directory.
Repository administrators can paste copilot-mcp.json into Settings β Copilot β MCP servers. It explicitly allowlists the advertised tools. Only the opt-in proof tool writes data, and it stores only the consented derived result and receipt.
Other Agent Plugin clients and Cursor
Install this Agent Plugin where supported, or add the matching Streamable HTTP endpoint above as a remote MCP server named federal-grant-evidence.
