- Deep Search — Perform complex searches across the entire GovInfo database to find relevant legislative or regulatory documents
- Daily Updates — Retrieve a list of all documents officially published on a specific date
- Metadata Extraction — Get detailed summary metadata for specific packages or their sub-documents (granules)
- Contextual Relationships — Discover related documents to understand the legislative or regulatory history of a specific bill or rule
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your free API key from api.data.gov

Frequently asked questions
What kind of documents can I find on GovInfo?
GovInfo provides access to a vast array of federal documents, including Congressional Bills (BILLS), the Federal Register (FR), Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), United States Courts Opinions (USCOURTS), and Presidential Documents (CPD). Use the list_collections tool to see all available categories.
How do I find the actual text or PDF of a document?
The get_package_summary tool returns metadata which includes download links (URLs) for various formats like PDF, XML, or Text. You can then use those links to access the full document.
How does Pydantic AI discover MCP tools?
Create an MCPServerHTTP instance with the server URL. Pydantic AI connects, discovers all tools, and generates typed Python interfaces automatically.
Does Pydantic AI validate MCP tool responses?
Yes. When you define result types as Pydantic models, every tool response is validated against the schema. Invalid data raises a clear error instead of silently corrupting your pipeline.
Can I switch LLM providers without changing MCP code?
Absolutely. Pydantic AI abstracts the model layer. your GovInfo MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
