GovAuctions MCP server

Agent-callable tools for government-surplus auction data: search live listings, pull real sold-price comps, and get a 0–100 Flip Score resale signal — the same engine behind GovAuctions.

It exposes four read-only tools:

Tool

What it does

search_listings

Search live surplus auction listings (facts only). Filter by country, state, category, source, keyword, price.

get_listing

Fetch one listing by id (live or archived).

get_sold_comps

Sold-price range (25th / median / 75th percentile) for a described item, from past government auctions.

get_flip_score

Flip Score resale signal for a listing: estimated value, effective bid, and discount.

All tools are read-only. Get an API key (free tier available) at https://govauctions.app/developers.

Use it (two ways)

1. Hosted (remote) — no install

Point any client that speaks remote MCP at the hosted Streamable HTTP endpoint:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "govauctions": { "url": "https://govauctions.app/api/mcp" }
  }
}

get_sold_comps is open on the hosted endpoint; the other three tools read your key from the request. See the developer docs.

2. Local (stdio) — this file

A dependency-free Node wrapper (Node 18+) over the REST Data API. Download govauctions-mcp.mjs and add it to your client:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "govauctions": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/govauctions-mcp.mjs"],
      "env": { "GOVAUCTIONS_API_KEY": "gak_your_key" }
    }
  }
}
