search_listings
Search live GSA federal-surplus auction listings (facts only — no images). Filter by state, category, keyword, price, or distance from a US ZIP code. Works signed out (up to 25 rows per page). Raw listings cover sanctioned federal…
get_listing
Get one live GSA listing by its id (facts only). Works signed out.
get_sold_comps
Sold-price comps for a described item, computed across the full government-surplus market in any market listed in `country`. Signed out: coverage (how many comparable sales, confidence, a coarse price band) plus `categoryStats`, the…
get_sold_comps_batch
get_sold_comps for a list of items in one call. Each query is either a string ('2015 Ford F-150') or an object with its own q/category/country/state. Each item costs one valuation lookup, exactly as if sent alone; an item that comes back…
get_flip_score
GovAuctions Flip Score resale signal for one live lot, from any source, in any market with sold-price comps (valued against that market's comp archive): estimated value, effective bid, discount, and the link to the lot on its source site…
get_sold_history
The individual archived sales behind an item: title, final price, sale month and state, plus the range they produce. Use when you want the evidence rather than just the number. Query-anchored — describe an item; there is no way to list…
get_price_trend
Month-by-month median sale price for an item, plus the first-to-last change — 'is this category softening?'. Computed from the same comps as get_sold_comps, so it never contradicts that range. Returns an empty series when too few months…
get_comp_coverage
How much sold-price data we hold per category for a market, and which categories can never be priced. Check this before building on the comps tools — it is the honest answer about what we cannot do.
get_api_usage
This key's usage for the current month: total calls and the separate valuation allowance (which comps, sold history, trend and flip-score draw down), plus the reset date. Call it to pace a long run instead of hitting a 429 mid-task.

How to connect

Add the server to your MCP client config. Claude Desktop, Cursor and most other clients read this shape:

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

Each line is something a program found when it went looking: the registry entry, the server's own answer, a spec that parses. A missing line means we did not find it, not that it does not exist.
