congressmcp (DEPRECATED)

This NPM package is no longer maintained. CongressMCP v2.0.0 runs locally as a Python MCP server — no bridge, no API key, no hosted server needed.

Migration

  1. Uninstall: npm uninstall -g congressmcp

  2. Install the new local server: uvx congressmcp (requires Python 3.10+ and uv)

  3. Get a free Congress.gov API key at api.congress.gov/sign-up

  4. See the setup guide: github.com/amurshak/congressMCP

Related MCP server: mcp-sam-gov

What Changed

CongressMCP was converted from a hosted SaaS service to a free, open-source, local-first MCP server. The NPM bridge that connected Claude Desktop to the hosted backend is no longer needed — the server now runs locally via stdio.

This server cannot be deployed

One endpoint for every MCP toolRayrun runs every MCP server behind one URL and holds the credentials. Each call is decided per client, tool, and argument, then recorded.ray.runAd
