MCP tools

Search federal contract vehicle opportunities MCP tool

Searches stored federal contract vehicle opportunities in the authenticated GovTribe workspace, limited to records available through the active eBuy integration. Does not submit bids or query arbitrary external accounts.

Search_Federal_Contract_Vehicle_Opportunities searches only the vehicle opportunities GovTribe can associate with the authenticated user's workspace and active eBuy access. It does not return a public feed of all eBuy opportunities.
