Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Live listings, sold prices and resale scores from GovAuctions.app, the public surplus-auction site.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

ChatGPT connects only to servers on the internet:

  1. Open ChatGPT on the web → Settings → Connectors (Apps)
  2. Press Create or Add (some plans need Developer mode under Advanced first)
  3. Paste the address below, give it a name and save
  4. If it asks you to sign in, sign in with the maker

Common questions

Is govauctions.app safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.3) reached the registry 30 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

GovAuctions MCP server

GovAuctions.app is a free public site for finding government surplus auctions: live listings from GSA and other government sellers, alongside what comparable lots actually sold for. This repo is its MCP server, a second front door onto the same data for agents and code.

Agent-callable tools for government-surplus auction data: search live listings, pull real sold-price comps from 170,000+ closed government auctions in the US, UK, Canada and Australia, and get a 0–100 Flip Score resale signal, from the same engine behind the site.

Tools

Eight tools on the hosted server, all read-only. The local npm package exposes the first four.

ToolWhat it does
search_listingsSearch live GSA federal-surplus listings (facts only). Filter by state, category, keyword, price.
get_listingFetch one live GSA listing by id.
get_sold_compsSold-price range (25th / median / 75th percentile) for a described item, across the US, UK, CA or AU government-surplus market.
get_flip_scoreFlip Score resale signal for a listing: estimated value, effective bid, and discount.
get_sold_historyThe individual archived sales behind a comp number.
get_price_trendMonth-by-month sold-price trend for a described item.
get_comp_coverageWhat can and cannot be priced, by category and market.
get_api_usageYour key's usage against its monthly allowance.

Get an API key (free tier available) at https://govauctions.app/developers.

Use it (two ways)

1. Hosted (remote), no install. Recommended.

Point any client that speaks remote MCP at the hosted Streamable HTTP endpoint:

{

"mcpServers": { "govauctions": { "url": "https://govauctions.app/api/mcp" } } }

Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http govauctions https://govauctions.app/api/mcp \

--header "Authorization: Bearer gak_YOUR_KEY"

get_sold_comps answers on the hosted endpoint with no key at all; the other tools read your key from the request. See the developer docs.

2. Local (stdio) via npx

For clients that cannot add a remote MCP URL. A dependency-free Node wrapper (Node 18+) over the REST Data API, published to npm as govauctions-mcp:

{

"mcpServers": { "govauctions": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "govauctions-mcp"], "env": { "GOVAUCTIONS_API_KEY": "gak_your_key" } } } }

Or download govauctions-mcp.mjs and run it with node /absolute/path/to/govauctions-mcp.mjs.

Config (env):

  • GOVAUCTIONS_API_KEY: required. Your key from https://govauctions.app/developers/keys
  • GOVAUCTIONS_API_BASE: optional. Defaults to https://govauctions.app/api/v1

The local wrapper forwards every call to the REST API, so unlike the hosted server it needs a key for every tool, including get_sold_comps.

API

The tools wrap the public REST Data API. OpenAPI spec: https://govauctions.app/api/v1/openapi.json
