What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 7, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

• get_catalog

  What SpendQuery can answer: data coverage, metrics, dimensions (with examples and whether they apply to contracts or assistance), analyses, the QueryPlan JSON schema, planning rules and example question -> plan pairs. Call this first (no arguments): the federal catalog. section:

• run_plan

  Run a QueryPlan (see get_catalog.plan_schema). Returns status (ok | clarify | unsupported | error), a one-paragraph answer, columns, rows (max 100), the SQL that ran, caveats and how names were resolved to codes.

• search_codes

  Look up codes and official names. kind: agency | bureau | state | county | naics | psc | program. Matches names (substring, case-insensitive) or code prefixes. Plans can use either the names or the codes.

• search_recipients

  Find award recipients (companies, universities, governments) by name or UEI. Returns each registration's UEI, parent, listed-company ticker (if matched) and its OWN obligations across loaded years, largest first. A parent's money sits on its units, so a parent UEI's own obligatio

• browse_codes

  Browse what the government buys, with contract spend. kind: psc (products and services) | naics (industries). No group and no query -> the groups (PSC: services by letter, e.g. D = IT services, R = professional support; products by 2 digits, e.g. 84 = clothing and individual equi

• get_notice

  One SAM.gov contract notice as SpendQuery's brief sees it, no AI: the decision card (what the buyer needs, blockers, unknowns, a next step; each line labelled record / files / unknown), the timeline of the buy (planned buy, the contract it follows, earlier and newer notices, the

• size_standard

  SBA small business size standards (13 CFR 121.201, the eCFR table): a NAICS code, a code prefix (5415) or industry words -> receipts ($ millions) or employees, exceptions and footnotes, and the programs that use them.

• naics_finder

  Describe the work in plain words -> the NAICS codes buyers actually use for it (codes on SAM.gov notices whose titles have the words and on federal contracts described with them), each with its SBA size standard.

• vehicle_match

  For 6-digit NAICS codes (and an optional agency): the shared contract vehicles (GWACs, multiple-award IDIQs, GSA Schedule, BPAs) carrying last complete year's contract money in those codes, the share through each and who each is reserved for (read from its name).

• search_far

  Search the FAR and the DFARS (48 CFR chapters 1 and 2, as codified in the eCFR): sections whose title or text has every word, or a section number (e.g. 52.219-14) straight to it. reg: FAR | DFARS to limit. Returns section numbers, titles and a snippet; read one with get_far_secti

• get_far_section

  One FAR or DFARS section's full text (paragraphs), its part and subpart, the sections it refers to and the ones referring to it, and Federal Register rules changing its part. Cite it as FAR (or DFARS) with the as-of date in source.

• search_local_bids

• find_bid_portals

  Where to bid in a place: the state's, county's or city's own bid / procurement portal, the platform it runs on (Bonfire, OpenGov, DemandStar, PlanetBids, BidNet Direct...), its open bids list when known (open_bids_url: give that link first), department bid pages (more_links), whe

• sbir_awards

  SBIR and STTR awards since 1983 from SBA's SBIR.gov records, and who received them: totals, awards by year (Phase I / II), by agency, the companies with the most, and the latest awards (company, title, agency, phase, amount, year). Filters: agency (as SBIR.gov names it, e.g. "Dep

• grant_opportunities

  Federal grant opportunities on Grants.gov: open ones soonest closing first (or forecast), by words and by who may apply, each with its number, agency, close date, award ceiling and estimated funding, and its spendquery.com page, plus up to 5 forecast grants on the same words (exp

• primes_and_subcontractors

  Who does a kind of work, for the last complete fiscal year: the primes (with their certifications), the subcontractors primes reported paying (FSRS subawards), and prime -> subcontractor pairs, the teaming and subcontracting leads. Give at least one of naics, psc or agency; state

• search_notices

  Open SAM.gov contract notices still taking responses, in one call (no QueryPlan): by words (also matched by meaning), NAICS, place, set-aside, agency and notice type, soonest deadline first. Each notice has its id (for get_notice), set-aside, deadline with time zone, days left, t
