Tool names from Anthropic's directory listing. This server requires sign-in, so we could not read tool descriptions or parameter schemas.

Limits

  • A paid plan is mandatory and starts at $1,500 a year. GovTribe publishes list prices for four self-service tiers, billed annually. Scale is custom and routed through Sales.
  • Credits are a second, separate charge. MCP usage is metered at $0.09 per credit on Pay-As-You-Go, or against prepaid packs. Searches, returned records, aggregations, vector-store operations, interactive views and workspace actions all consume credits.
  • Credits must be enabled by the account owner before API-key management appears at all. A non-owner cannot enable them.
  • State and local data requires a Plus plan or Scale. The state and local tools can appear in a tool list on a federal-only plan without returning that coverage.
  • One scope, mcp:use, gating a surface GovTribe annotates with 48 destructive tools. The consent screen offers nothing to decline, and no narrower scope is advertised on either descriptor.
  • Anthropic's listing understates the write surface by 53 tools. The 24 listed names are all read-only; GovTribe documents 97 further tools, 53 of them carrying a write, delete or send verb. Never treat the listing as the connector's full capability.
  • Some teaming actions are documented as irreversible. GovTribe states that a match withdrawal cannot be undone from the agent and that a decline is recorded permanently.
  • No restore or undo tool is documented for the delete verbs. We searched all 121 tool pages on 2026-08-18 and found no inverse for deleting a pursuit, pipeline, stage, task, tag, saved search, contact group or automation.
  • Rate limits are not published. GovTribe documents per-tier requests-per-minute limits that upgrade with total spend, but the figures are visible only inside the account.
  • Resale of extracted analysis is prohibited without written authorisation. GovTribe's terms bar reselling or leasing the services or any analytical information extracted from them, and bar using a subscription to serve non-subscribers.
  • Automated scraping and bulk downloading are barred. GovTribe's acceptable-use section names both, and reserves the right to terminate without notice or refund.
  • The data is a mirror, not the source of record. GovTribe states its accuracy depends entirely on the original government sources and disclaims warranties. Refresh cadence ranges from 15 minutes for SAM.gov opportunities to 24 hours for most other feeds.
  • We could not read tool schemas or safety annotations off the wire. The endpoint requires authentication, so the 24 count and the tool names are the directory's, and the annotations quoted here are GovTribe's published ones. What we read live was the auth posture, both OAuth descriptors and the status of every published endpoint.
  • This is data access, not advice. Nothing here is procurement, legal or contracting guidance.

Frequently asked questions

All five current plans include it. GovTribe lists MCP access on Launch, Launch Plus, Growth, Growth Plus and Scale, and its plan comparison repeats that access is included on every tier. Credit-billed MCP tools additionally require credits to be enabled on the account, which is a separate decision from the subscription.

No. GovTribe states that credit-powered usage requires credits to be enabled on the account. Pay-As-You-Go additionally requires an active paid subscription, payment information on file, and Pay-As-You-Go access that is not blocked. With credits disabled, credit-billed MCP tools stop at the billing preflight rather than running and charging.

GovTribe states that free trials include 1000 credits. Trial accounts can spend those included credits, but they cannot buy more until the account becomes paid. That makes a trial a genuine way to evaluate the MCP connector, bounded by a fixed allowance rather than by a feature restriction.

GovTribe publishes a Credit Cost Estimator for exactly this. It models expected GovTribe AI, GovTribe MCP and automation usage so an account can compare Pay-As-You-Go against prepaid credit packs before enabling credits. GovTribe also publishes a Credit Consumption Table giving the current per-action rate behind each usage category.

Credits may not be enabled for the account. GovTribe states that credits must be enabled before the GovTribe MCP page shows API-key management, and shows an Enable GovTribe Credits prompt instead. Disabling credits later does not revoke an existing key or disconnect an existing OAuth connection.

Refresh the connected AI application or update connector permissions. GovTribe publishes a dedicated article on updating your AI application after a GovTribe MCP update, because the server's tool list changes and clients cache it. This matters more here than on most connectors, since GovTribe documents far more tools than any single listing shows.

No. GovTribe documents 121 MCP tools, of which 54 carry a Not read only annotation and 48 a destructive annotation in its own reference. Those include deleting pursuits, pipelines, saved searches, tasks, tags, stages and automations. The 24 names in Anthropic's directory snapshot are all read-only, but they are a subset of the server's surface.
