Koskamo

sam-gov MCP

A community-driven Model Context Protocol server that enables agents to search SAM.gov for federal contract opportunities. It provides read-only access to notice records, allowing users to filter by keywords, NAICS codes, set-aside types, and state. The server requires a free SAM.gov API key for live calls and supports pagination for retrieving multiple pages of results.
