gov-data-mcp
One line: gov-data-mcp gives an agent 12 dedicated US government open-data screening tools (environmental, hazard, energy, financial, property, licensing) plus 3 free catalog tools that reach the remaining ~120 tools, all reading live from official government APIs via metered Apify runs.

Click on "Deploy Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@gov-data-mcp Check environmental risk at 1200 Broadway, Denver"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
gov-data-mcp
123 US government open-data tools, as one MCP server.
EPA, FEMA, USGS, NOAA, FAA, USACE, FDIC, HUD, NRCS, HRSA, CMS, county assessor rolls and state licensing boards — all reachable as agent-callable tools, all reading directly from official government APIs and bulk files. No scraping, no HTML parsing, no rate-limit roulette.
mcp-name: io.github.malonestar/gov-data-mcp
npx gov-data-mcpInstall
You need a free Apify API token from console.apify.com/settings/integrations. Apify's free tier includes monthly platform credit that covers evaluating every tool here.

What you get
12 dedicated tools for the highest-traffic questions, callable directly:
Tool | Answers |
| 20-layer go / caution / no-go verdict for one coordinate |
| Phase I ESA database search at ASTM E1527-21 distances |
| Part 107 LAANC and airspace verdicts, batched |
| Nearest transmission line, substation, serving utility, ISO/RTO |

Plus three tools that reach the other 111:
search-gov-data-tools— find a tool by keyword, agency or topicdescribe-gov-data-tool— full input schema for any tool in the catalogrun-gov-data-tool— run any tool in the catalog
The catalog is bundled, so discovery costs nothing. Ask your agent "what government data tools do you have for flood risk?" and it will search all 123.
Vertical presets
The full server is the right default for a general-purpose agent. For an agent that serves one kind of buyer, a preset narrows the whole surface — the named tools and what search-gov-data-tools / describe-gov-data-tool / run-gov-data-tool can reach — to one shelf, and announces itself to the client under its own server name and description. Same package, same catalog, same release; nothing to install separately. Pass --preset <name> or set GOV_DATA_MCP_PRESET. An unknown preset name refuses to start rather than guessing. npx gov-data-mcp --list-presets prints the current list as JSON.

phase1-esa — Phase I ESA — Environmental Due Diligence
US government environmental records for Phase I Environmental Site Assessments and property due diligence: EPA Superfund / RCRA / UST / brownfield records at ASTM E1527-21 search distances, state tank and spill registries, historic land use from FRS SIC/NAICS, USGS historical topographic map coverage, NWI wetlands, Clean Water Act §404 surface water, RCRA corrective-action cleanups, orphaned wells, FEMA hazard risk and NFIP flood-loss history, plus a twenty-layer go / caution / no-go site verdict. Every tool reads the official source directly and reports what it could not check as null, never as clear.

cre-leads — CRE & Local Business Leads — Who Just Changed State
Lead-generation feeds built from official state and county registers: new and pending liquor licenses, verified new business openings from Secretary of State and tax rosters, WARN layoff notices, newly licensed real estate agents, licensed childcare providers with contacts, parcel owner of record, absentee-owner lists, distressed-property signal stacks, NYC deed transfers and landlord registries, city business licenses and professional license verification. Delta modes return only what changed since the last run, so a scheduled agent pays for new leads, not the same roster twice.

compliance — KYB, Sanctions & Financial Compliance Screening
Know-your-business and compliance screening from primary US government registers: company existence across Secretary of State registries, the Trade.gov Consolidated Screening List (OFAC SDN, BIS, State) as a delta, the DHS UFLPA Entity List, state Medicaid and HHS-OIG exclusion lists, professional license verification, GLEIF LEI ownership graphs, FDIC / NCUA institution health, FDIC structure changes, SEC investment-adviser registrations, PCAOB auditor engagements and SEC Regulation CF / A+ offering lifecycles. A screen that could not reach its source fails loudly rather than returning a clean sheet.

How it works
Each tool is a published Apify Actor that this server invokes through the Apify API. The server starts the run, waits for a terminal state, and returns the rows.
Billing is to your own Apify account at each actor's published pay-per-result rate, listed on its Store page. Free-tier credit covers evaluation. A run that fails bills nothing beyond a fractional actor-start charge.
Every result carries the run_id and a console.apify.com URL, so any claim an agent makes from this server can be traced back to the exact run that produced it.
No Apify account? Agents can pay per run with x402
Every tool in this catalog is eligible for Apify's agentic payments: an agent with a funded Coinbase Agentic Wallet (USDC on Base, $1 minimum) buys a prepaid Apify token over the x402 protocol and uses it as APIFY_TOKEN — no account, no billing setup, no API key. The ready-made skill is apify.it/x402-awal:
npx -y awal auth login <email> # one-time wallet auth
npx awal x402 pay 'https://agi.apify.com/protocols/x402/prepaid-tokens?amount=5¤cy=usd' --max-amount 5000000 --json
# → returns a bearer token; export it as APIFY_TOKEN and start this server as usualThe prepaid balance is an absolute spending cap and expires after 14 days. Every tool here charges per result or per generated report. None pass platform usage through, none require full permissions, and none run in Standby mode, which are the three things that make an Actor ineligible. Prices are in the catalog (usdPerUnit and priceUnit on every search hit, plus usdPer1000Results for per-row tools), so an agent can see the cost before spending.
Calling the tools well (guide for agents)
The most common way to waste a call is to guess the input: no state, no coordinates, a misspelled field. These tools then refuse the question, or match nothing, and the caller still pays a fractional actor-start fee. The server helps an agent avoid that in four ways:
An agent guide in the handshake. The MCP
initializeresponse carriesinstructions. They cover the search → describe → run workflow, scoping every call, real codes and ISO dates, starting small, and how to read failures, zero rows andnull.Verified example inputs.
describe-gov-data-tool(free) returns:must_supply: the fields you have to provide.example_input: the actor's prefill, which Apify's own QA runs every few days and which returns rows.Up to two
examples: inputs from the actor's published, run-verified demo tasks, each with a human title.
Start from one of them and change only the values you need.
A free local check before any metered run. A missing required field, an input name the tool doesn't have, or a value outside a closed vocabulary is reported with
run_status: NOT_RUN_INPUT_INVALIDand the example to copy. Nothing runs and nothing is charged.A next step on every unhelpful result. A failed run returns the actor's own reason in
note, plusnext_step,must_supplyandexample_input. A zero-row success says to check spelling, state code, radius and date window before concluding that nothing exists.
Example of a well-scoped first call:
{"tool": "medicaid-exclusion-screener", "input": {"mode": "screen", "targets": [{"npi": "1972902351"}, {"name": "Jane Doe", "dob": "1970-01-01"}]}}On honest answers
These actors are built around one rule: a failure must never be presentable as "nothing was found." That distinction matters most in exactly the cases people use this for — telling a buyer a property is clear of contamination, telling a pilot an airspace is uncontrolled, telling a lender a borrower is unlicensed.
So this server:
reports
run_statuson every call, and never attaches arowskey to a run that did not succeeddistinguishes "the run SUCCEEDED and the source genuinely matched nothing" from "the run failed" in the response text, explicitly
retries transient Apify 429/5xx, then fails loudly saying the platform failed and no conclusion should be drawn about the government source
treats an unknown tool name as a catalog miss, never as an empty result
The underlying actors carry the same discipline: per-source status on every row, null meaning not checked rather than checked and negative, live drift assertions that fail the run when an upstream silently truncates, and pagination guards on sources that answer HTTP 200 with a partial payload. Each actor's Store page documents the specific traps it defends against.
Coverage
123 tools, every one reading an official US government API or bulk file. The MCP server exposes 15 of them directly — twelve named tools plus search-gov-data-tools, describe-gov-data-tool and run-gov-data-tool, which reach the rest — because agents choose badly when handed more than about twenty tools.
Each entry links to its full input/output schema, pricing and worked examples.

Return the full input schema and documentation for any one of the 123 tools in the catalog. Call this before run-gov-data-tool so the input is correctly shaped. FREE: reads a catalog bundled with this server — no network call, no run, nothing charged.
Inputs: tool (required).
epa-contaminated-site-screenerA
Phase I ESA & Environmental Due Diligence: EPA Database Search. Environmental due diligence by address: an environmental database report over EPA Superfund/NPL, RCRA CORRACTS/TSD/generators, TRI, UST, LUST, Brownfields, NPDES, AIR, TSCA and RMP, scored at ASTM E1527-21 search distances, plus on-site Superfund and AUL boundary checks. No API key. CHOOSE THIS for the ASTM E1527-21 Phase I records search at regulation distances around one or more properties. For a single combined verdict across twenty unrelated layers use site-due-diligence-bundle; for drinking-water quality use epa-drinking-water-quality-screener. INPUTS: mode decides everything else. In "assets" mode supply assets (address or lat/lon) and radiusMiles; states, onlyNpl and onlyWithCoords are ignored. In "inventory" mode supply states and the asset inputs are ignored. One row per site hit is billed, so maxHitsPerProgram and maxResults are the cost levers; keep them low on a first call near dense industrial areas. Reads live from the official government source. Call describe-gov-data-tool (free) for a verified example input. COST AND SIDE EFFECTS: read-only with respect to the government source — it never writes to any external system — but each call starts a metered run on YOUR Apify account, billed $0.01 per result ($10 per 1,000). Lower on paid Apify plans, down to $3.00 per 1,000. Nothing is charged when a run fails. Store page: https://apify.com/malonestar/epa-contaminated-site-screener
Inputs: mode, assets, states, onlyNpl, +8 more.
epa-drinking-water-quality-screenerA
EPA Drinking Water Quality Screener - Violations, Lead & PFAS. Screen any US coordinate for the public water system serving it: SDWA health-based violations, Lead & Copper Rule 90th-percentile results and UCMR5 PFAS detections - the evidence base behind the LCRI (Nov 1, 2027) and PFAS NPDWR (Apr 26, 2027) deadlines. Never clears a source that did not answer. CHOOSE THIS for public water-system quality: SDWA violations, lead 90th-percentile results and PFAS occurrence. It is NOT a property contamination screen — for soil and groundwater records at a site use epa-contaminated-site-screener. INPUTS: supply assets (lat/lon, matched to a water system boundary) or pwsids (9-character EPA system ids) or both. includePfas is the slow leg; turn it off when PFAS is not the question. violationYears only changes the recent-violation flags, not the history summary. maxAssets is the cost cap. Reads live from the official government source. Call describe-gov-data-tool (free) for a verified example input. COST AND SIDE EFFECTS: read-only with respect to the government source — it never writes to any external system — but each call starts a metered run on YOUR Apify account, billed $0.012 per Drinking water screening result ($12 per 1,000). Lower on paid Apify plans, down to $3.60 per 1,000. Nothing is charged when a run fails. Store page: https://apify.com/malonestar/epa-drinking-water-quality-screener
Inputs: assets, pwsids, maxAssets, includeLead, +8 more.
faa-drone-airspace-checkerA
FAA Drone Airspace Checker - Batch LAANC & No-Fly Verdicts. Batch lat/lon to FAA UAS airspace verdicts at $0.02 per check: LAANC ceilings AND whether LAANC is actually offered, charted Class B/C/D/E surface areas, prohibited areas, national-defense TFR areas, special use airspace, NSUFR, stadium TFRs. Never reads clear when a layer did not answer. CHOOSE THIS for drone (Part 107) airspace questions at specific US points: airspace class, LAANC ceiling, restricted and special-use areas, temporary flight restrictions. It does NOT screen ground conditions — for a site environmental or hazard screen use site-due-diligence-bundle. It reports what the FAA layers say; it does not request or grant an authorization. INPUTS: points is required. layers narrows which FAA layers are checked; leave it empty for all eight. maxPoints is the cost cap, one billed row per point. Reads live from the official government source. Call describe-gov-data-tool (free) for a verified example input. COST AND SIDE EFFECTS: read-only with respect to the government source — it never writes to any external system — but each call starts a metered run on YOUR Apify account, billed $0.02 per result ($20 per 1,000). Lower on paid Apify plans, down to $6.00 per 1,000. Nothing is charged when a run fails. Store page: https://apify.com/malonestar/faa-drone-airspace-checker
Inputs: points (required), layers, maxPoints.
fdic-ncua-health-rollupA
Bank & Credit-Union Financial Health API — FDIC/NCUA QoQ. Bank financial-stress screen on keyless FDIC data: capital ratios, CRE concentration (2006 guidance two-prong test), deposit runoff, ROA/ROE/NIM and asset quality per institution, with quarter-over-quarter deltas, peer-percentile scoring and health flags (deposit outflow, low ROA, rising NPL). INPUTS: always set state; an empty state scores the whole country and bills far more rows. minAssets and maxAssets are in THOUSANDS of dollars (1000000 = $1B) and together with peerBasis define who counts as a peer. institutionType "credit_union" is not available yet and fails the run. maxResults is the cost cap. Reads live from the official government source. Call describe-gov-data-tool (free) for a verified example input. COST AND SIDE EFFECTS: read-only with respect to the government source — it never writes to any external system — but each call starts a metered run on YOUR Apify account, billed $0.008 per result ($8 per 1,000). Lower on paid Apify plans, down to $2.40 per 1,000. Nothing is charged when a run fails. Store page: https://apify.com/malonestar/fdic-ncua-health-rollup
Inputs: mode, state, benchmark, creGrowth, +6 more.
fema-nri-county-risk-profileA
FEMA NRI County Risk Profile — Asset Hazard Join. Join any asset (address, lat/lon, or county FIPS) to FEMA's National Risk Index hazard profile at county or census-tract resolution: composite risk score, expected annual loss, social vulnerability, resilience, and ranked top-3 hazards across all 18 FEMA perils. INPUTS: supply assets (FIPS, state+county, or lat/lon) for specific places; states and counties are used ONLY when assets is empty (inventory mode). resolution "tract" applies only to lat/lon assets and inventory pulls; FIPS or state+county assets always get county data. maxResults caps rows in both modes. Reads live from the official government source. Call describe-gov-data-tool (free) for a verified example input. COST AND SIDE EFFECTS: read-only with respect to the government source — it never writes to any external system — but each call starts a metered run on YOUR Apify account, billed $0.006 per result ($6 per 1,000). Lower on paid Apify plans, down to $1.80 per 1,000. Nothing is charged when a run fails. Store page: https://apify.com/malonestar/fema-nri-county-risk-profile
Inputs: assets, states, counties, maxResults, +1 more.
fws-wetlands-proximity-screenerA
USFWS Wetlands Proximity Screener - Section 404 Site Risk API. Wetland due-diligence API for site selection: per lat/lon site, wetland presence within radius, Cowardin classification codes/systems, wetland types, total acreage nearby and a Section 404 dredge-and-fill screening flag. USFWS National Wetlands Inventory open data. CHOOSE THIS for National Wetlands Inventory polygons and their decode columns within a radius. It does NOT answer Clean Water Act §404 jurisdiction — for surface-water features and relative permanence use nhd-surface-water-404-screener. The two are usually needed together. INPUTS: assets is required. radiusMeters is the presence check (a true circle); nearestSearchRadiusMeters is independent and only bounds the nearest-wetland distance, so a site can read no wetland in radius and still report a nearest one. maxResults caps assets, one billed row each. Reads live from the official government source. Call describe-gov-data-tool (free) for a verified example input. COST AND SIDE EFFECTS: read-only with respect to the government source — it never writes to any external system — but each call starts a metered run on YOUR Apify account, billed $0.008 per result ($8 per 1,000). Lower on paid Apify plans, down to $2.40 per 1,000. Nothing is charged when a run fails. Store page: https://apify.com/malonestar/fws-wetlands-proximity-screener
Inputs: assets (required), maxResults, radiusMeters, computeNearestDistance, +1 more.
hifld-grid-proximity-screenerA
Transmission Line & Substation Distance API by Coordinates. For each lat/lon site: distance to the nearest transmission line (kV, owner, overhead/underground), nearest substation, nearest power plant, the serving utility and its ISO/RTO, plus generation and battery-storage MW nearby. Includes sub-100 kV. Data-center, renewable, BESS and EV siting. INPUTS: assets is required. radiusMiles bounds every layer. minVoltageKv filters lines only, never substations or plants, and drops lines with unknown voltage. includeSubstations, includePowerPlants and includeUtility add columns, not rows; turn them off to speed up large batches. maxResults caps assets, one billed row each. Reads live from the official government source. Call describe-gov-data-tool (free) for a verified example input. COST AND SIDE EFFECTS: read-only with respect to the government source — it never writes to any external system — but each call starts a metered run on YOUR Apify account, billed $0.01 per result ($10 per 1,000). Lower on paid Apify plans, down to $3.00 per 1,000. Nothing is charged when a run fails. Store page: https://apify.com/malonestar/hifld-grid-proximity-screener
Inputs: assets (required), eiaApiKey, maxResults, radiusMiles, +8 more.
interconnection-queue-trackerA
US Interconnection Queue Tracker - 7 ISO Queues & Deltas API. Normalize US ISO/RTO generator interconnection queues (SPP, MISO, NYISO, CAISO, PJM, ERCOT, ISO-NE) into one schema and track new, withdrawn, status-change and COD-slip deltas. For renewables developers, land agents, and energy consultants. Keyless. INPUTS: leave isos empty for all seven ISOs, or name one or two to keep a first call small. maxResults is applied in ISO order, so a low value silently drops the later ISOs; raise it or narrow isos instead. For change monitoring use deltaOnly in snapshot mode rather than re-pulling the full queue. Reads live from the official government source. Call describe-gov-data-tool (free) for a verified example input. COST AND SIDE EFFECTS: read-only with respect to the government source — it never writes to any external system — but each call starts a metered run on YOUR Apify account, billed $0.008 per result ($8 per 1,000). Lower on paid Apify plans, down to $2.40 per 1,000. Nothing is charged when a run fails. Store page: https://apify.com/malonestar/interconnection-queue-tracker
Inputs: isos, mode, deltaOnly, maxResults, +2 more.
license-verifierA
License Verification API — Nurses, MDs & OIG Exclusions. Primary source verification for US professional licenses. Search 19 state boards by name or license number: status, expiration, disciplinary actions. Cross-checks the NPPES NPI registry and screens the HHS-OIG exclusion list. Bulk roster screening. Newly licensed clinicians feed (roster-delta). INPUTS: always scope with states (a state code searches every board in it; a board id targets one). The most precise search is licenseNumber; otherwise lastName plus firstName. roster runs a batch instead of a single search, and mode "roster-delta" switches to the newly-credentialed feed with professions and sinceDays. maxResults applies PER BOARD, so a bare state code can bill several boards; start with a low value. Reads live from the official government source. Call describe-gov-data-tool (free) for a verified example input. COST AND SIDE EFFECTS: read-only with respect to the government source — it never writes to any external system — but each call starts a metered run on YOUR Apify account, billed $0.01 per result ($10 per 1,000). Lower on paid Apify plans, down to $3.00 per 1,000. Nothing is charged when a run fails. Store page: https://apify.com/malonestar/license-verifier
Inputs: city, mode, name, roster, +16 more.
nhd-surface-water-404-screenerA
USGS NHD Surface Water & Section 404 Wetland Screener. Screen any lat/lon against USGS NHDPlus HR surface water. 94 fields: exact distance to the nearest perennial, intermittent and ephemeral reach, waterbody type and purpose, mean annual flow, stream order, HUC-8/10/12, a jurisdictional-likelihood call with its reasoning, and a Section 404/WOTUS flag. CHOOSE THIS for Clean Water Act §404 surface-water screening — streams, waterbodies and their relative permanence. For mapped wetland polygons use fws-wetlands-proximity-screener. INPUTS: assets is required. radiusMeters 1000 covers a typical Phase I adjacent-property review; widen it only on purpose. Keep includeNonNetworkFlowlines on for a conservative screen. runBudgetSeconds trades completeness for speed when the USGS service is slow; a site cut by the budget reports null counts, not zero. maxResults caps sites, exactly one row each. Reads live from the official government source. Call describe-gov-data-tool (free) for a verified example input. COST AND SIDE EFFECTS: read-only with respect to the government source — it never writes to any external system — but each call starts a metered run on YOUR Apify account, billed $0.012 per Result ($12 per 1,000). Lower on paid Apify plans, down to $3.60 per 1,000. Nothing is charged when a run fails. Store page: https://apify.com/malonestar/nhd-surface-water-404-screener
Inputs: assets (required), maxResults, radiusMeters, runBudgetSeconds, +1 more.
parcel-owner-lookupA
Parcel Owner Lookup — Address to Owner & Assessor Record. Address to parcel ID, owner name, mailing address & assessed value from official assessor rolls: Chicago, Philadelphia, NYC + NC, NY State, WI, CO, MN, AR, MA, CT, VT statewide, Phoenix, Houston, Cleveland, Nashville & DC. Census fallback elsewhere. $0.02/lookup. INPUTS: addresses is required, one full street address with city and state per entry. Coverage is a fixed list of county and state assessor rolls; every address still yields exactly one row, so read its lookup_status before treating a missing owner as an answer. maxResults caps addresses, one billed row each. Reads live from the official government source. Call describe-gov-data-tool (free) for a verified example input. COST AND SIDE EFFECTS: read-only with respect to the government source — it never writes to any external system — but each call starts a metered run on YOUR Apify account, billed $0.02 per Result ($20 per 1,000). Lower on paid Apify plans, down to $6.00 per 1,000. Nothing is charged when a run fails. Store page: https://apify.com/malonestar/parcel-owner-lookup
Inputs: addresses (required), maxResults, runBudgetSeconds.
run-gov-data-toolA
Run any one of the 123 catalog tools with the given input and return its rows. Call describe-gov-data-tool first to shape the input. COST AND SIDE EFFECTS: read-only with respect to the government source — it never writes to any external system — but each call starts a metered run on YOUR Apify account, billed per result row at the rate this tool reports. Call describe-gov-data-tool first to see the exact price before running anything. Nothing is charged when a run fails. A run that FAILS returns an error and no rows rather than an empty result, so a zero-row answer means the source was reached and matched nothing for exactly that input. Failed and zero-row results carry next_step, must_supply and a verified example_input to copy. Inputs are checked locally first: a missing required field or an invalid enum value is reported free, without starting a run.
Inputs: tool (required), input (required), maxItems.
search-gov-data-toolsARead-onlyIdempotent
Search the full catalog of 123 US government data tools by keyword, agency, or topic (e.g. "wetlands", "FDIC", "flood", "drone airspace", "business licenses"). Returns matching tool names with descriptions. Use this first when the task is not covered by one of the dedicated tools above. FREE: reads a catalog bundled with this server — no network call, no run, nothing charged.
Inputs: query (required), limit.
site-due-diligence-bundleA
Environmental Due Diligence Bundle: 20-Layer Site Scorecard. Environmental due diligence at $0.10 per property - one row per site, not per layer. Lat/lon plus radius returns a go/caution/no-go fatal-flaw verdict and 0-100 score across 20 federal layers: EPA contamination, FEMA flood, NWI wetlands, ESA habitat, karst, landslide, levee, dams, CBRS, pipelines. CHOOSE THIS when you want one combined go / caution / no-go verdict for a coordinate across many unrelated layers. It is NOT an ASTM records review: its contamination layer reads RCRA and TRI through ECHO only and omits coordinate-less Superfund records. For a contamination-first question use epa-contaminated-site-screener. INPUTS: assets is required (lat/lon per site). radiusMiles sets the proximity layers only; point-in-polygon layers ignore it. maxAssets is the cost cap, one billed row per site, so start with 1-3 sites. Reads live from the official government source. Call describe-gov-data-tool (free) for a verified example input. COST AND SIDE EFFECTS: read-only with respect to the government source — it never writes to any external system — but each call starts a metered run on YOUR Apify account, billed $0.1 per result ($100 per 1,000). Lower on paid Apify plans, down to $30.00 per 1,000. Nothing is charged when a run fails. Store page: https://apify.com/malonestar/site-due-diligence-bundle
Inputs: assets (required), maxAssets, radiusMiles.

Scored across 15 tools
The twelve domain tools target clearly distinct data verticals (drone airspace, wetlands, banks, licenses, parcels, etc.), and the descriptions include explicit 'CHOOSE THIS / NOT this' cross-references that help pick between near-neighbors like site-due-diligence-bundle vs epa-contaminated-site-screener. The main ambiguity is that run-gov-data-tool is a generic superset that can invoke any of the 123 catalog tools, including the twelve dedicated ones, so an agent must decide between a named tool and the generic runner.
Domain tools use long kebab-case noun phrases with varied suffixes (-screener, -checker, -tracker, -profile, -rollup, -bundle, -lookup, -verifier), while the three meta tools follow a clean verb_noun pattern (describe/run/search-gov-data-tools). Readable throughout, but two distinct conventions coexist without a unified verb-based scheme.
Fifteen tools is a well-scoped surface for a gateway exposing a large catalog: twelve curated domain screeners plus three meta/gateway tools (search, describe, run). Slightly heavy for a single server, but each dedicated tool covers a genuinely different data source rather than redundant operations.
The surface is read-only lookups, so CRUD lifecycle gaps are not applicable; coverage of the stated 'US government data' domain is broad and extendable via search-gov-data-tools + run-gov-data-tool for the other ~111 catalog tools. Minor gap: discovery of catalog tools depends on keyword search, and no bulk/list-all-tools operation exists, but the generic runner prevents hard dead ends.
