Frequently asked questions about the Federal Register MCP Server
How do I find documents from a specific agency like the FDA?
First, use the list_agencies tool to find the correct agency slug or ID. Then, use the search_documents tool and provide that slug in the agencies parameter to filter results.
Can I see documents before they are officially published in the daily register?
Yes! Use the search_public_inspection or get_current_public_inspection tools. These access the 'Public Inspection' desk, which contains documents filed for public review before their formal publication date.
Is it possible to search for documents related to a specific Regulation Identifier Number (RIN)?
Absolutely. Use the search_documents tool and provide the rin parameter. This will return all published documents associated with that specific regulatory action.
