FAQ from Govdata Mcp

Which government data portals does it support?

The server supports the official open data portals of the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia.

How does it handle differences between portals?

Per‑portal quirks (e.g., API migrations, authentication walls, bilingual metadata, stale DataStore flags) are absorbed behind a common adapter, so the user sees a single consistent interface.

Does the server handle authentication?

The README notes that “auth walls” are one of the quirks absorbed by the adapter, but does not detail specific authentication methods or requirements for the user.

Where does the data live?

Data is fetched live from the government portals. The server does not store or cache datasets locally.

What is the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?

MCP is a protocol that allows AI agents to interact with external tools and data sources. This server implements the MCP standard to expose government data search and retrieval capabilities.
