How do I install the org.ungovr/mcp server?

org.ungovr/mcp is a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.ungovr.org/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 12 exposed · ~2,038 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
get_cgj_report ~81

Get full details for a specific California Grand Jury report by ID. Includes findings, recommendations, and responses. Requires X-API-Key header (50 req/day shared with data.ungovr.org). Get a key at https://www.ungovr.org/open-data/api-keys.

NameTypeReqDescription
idstringyesReport ID (from search results)

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_entity ~133

Get full details for a specific government entity by its URL slug (e.g., "us/ca/ventura"). Works at any depth of the hierarchy, including cities, school districts and special districts (e.g., "us/ca/santa-barbara/spd/carpinteria-valley"). Returns name, type, website, parent, children, domain status, and metadata.

NameTypeReqDescription
slugstringyesEntity URL slug at any depth (e.g., "us/ca/ventura", "us/ca/santa-barbara/city/carpinteria", "ie/cork", "kr/seoul")

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_open_records_law ~160

Get the open records law (FOIA/RTI equivalent) governing a jurisdiction: name, citation, response deadlines, fees, exemptions, appeal process, records retention rules and RTI rating. Accepts a jurisdiction slug ("us/ca", "ie", "in/mh") or any UnGovr entity slug at any depth ("us/ca/santa-barbara/city/carpinteria" resolves to the California law). US federal FOIA is jurisdiction "us". When the answer comes from a parent jurisdiction the response includes "resolved_from".

NameTypeReqDescription
jurisdictionstringyesJurisdiction slug or entity slug at any depth (e.g., "us/ca", "us", "uk", "us/ca/ventura")

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_product_coverage ~84

Get the full hierarchy of government entities where an UnGovr product is available. product="request" returns the worldwide UnGovr Request coverage footprint (where you can file a government service request); product="cgj" returns Civil Grand Jury coverage. Public, no API key required.

NameTypeReqDescription
productstringyesProduct id: "request" or "cgj"

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_countries ~28

List all countries with government entity data in UnGovr, including entity counts and coverage metadata.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_service_types ~91

List available service request categories and types for a country. Returns service types grouped by category (e.g., Infrastructure, Utilities, Parks). Use this to discover valid service_type_id values for submit_service_request. Supported countries: US, IE (Ireland), GB (United Kingdom).

NameTypeReqDescription
countrystring–Two-letter country code: "us", "ie", or "gb" (default: "us")

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

resolve_domain_jurisdiction ~167

Best-effort mapping from a domain to the jurisdiction whose law governs its OPERATOR. Authoritative for government domains in the UnGovr corpus (method "entity_domains"); otherwise an inference from suffix or country-code TLD, or "unknown". Never uses server or edge-node location: a CDN PoP's geography is not the legal signal, the operator's establishment is. IP addresses are refused for the same reason. Requires X-API-Key header (50 req/day, shared with data.ungovr.org). Get a key at https://www.ungovr.org/open-data/api-keys.

NameTypeReqDescription
domainstringyesHostname or URL (e.g. "ventura.org", "https://www.stadt-koeln.de/x"). IP addresses are rejected.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

resolve_jurisdiction ~290

Maps an ISO 3166 code to the UnGovr jurisdictions whose law reaches the place, from the published crosswalk (https://data.ungovr.org/v1/crosswalk/iso-3166/index.json, CC BY 4.0). Accepts a country (FR, PR, EU, XK), a first-level subdivision (US-CA, GB-ENG), or the country and region an edge emits as two arguments (country US, region CA). Returns the canonical URN, the stack of governing layers (the place, its sovereign, a union or treaty area that reaches it), OCD-ID, Wikidata QID, precision, a reason when a code cannot be placed, and the crosswalk version. It maps what an edge already knows: it never resolves an IP address (those are refused and not echoed), a city or a postal code, and Cloudflare's XX and T1 answer with a reason, not a guess. Free, rate-limited per IP.

NameTypeReqDescription
codestringyesAn ISO 3166 code ("US-CA", "FR"), or the country when region is given ("US"). Never an IP address.
regionstring–Optional. The region an edge sent beside the country: "CA" or "US-CA". An empty string means the edge sent none and the answer is at country precision.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

search_cgj_reports ~190

Search California Grand Jury reports by county, year, and/or title keyword. Returns report metadata (title, year, county, themes). Requires X-API-Key header (50 req/day). Get a key at https://www.ungovr.org/open-data/api-keys. For the list of valid county names, query the UnGovr entity API: GET https://data.ungovr.org/v1/entities/us/ca.json

NameTypeReqDescription
countystring–County name (e.g., "Los Angeles", "San Francisco")
limitnumber–Maximum results to return (default 20, max 100)
offsetnumber–Number of results to skip for pagination (default 0)
querystring–Substring to match against report title (case-insensitive)
yearnumber–Filter by jury year (reports from that year)

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

search_entities ~295

Search government entities by country, optional state/province, name query, and entity type. Searches every tier of government in the jurisdiction, not just the top one: counties, cities, school districts, special districts, fire and police districts, joint powers authorities and regulated utilities are all reachable. Returns matching entities with slugs, types, and website URLs, plus a "scope" field — "full" means every tier was searched, "direct_children" means only the top tier was (narrow by state and search again). Unrecognised arguments are rejected, not ignored.

NameTypeReqDescription
countrystringyesTwo-letter country code (e.g., "us", "ca", "ie")
limitnumber–Maximum results to return (default 20, max 100)
offsetnumber–Number of results to skip for pagination (default 0)
querystring–Substring to match against entity name (case-insensitive)
statestring–State/province code to narrow search (e.g., "ca" for California, "on" for Ontario)
typestring–Filter by entity type, exact match (e.g., "county", "city", "school_district", "special_district", "fire_district", "police_department", "jpa", "regulated_utility"). The parameter is named "type", no…

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

search_transparency_laws ~170

Search government transparency laws across five domains: open records, open meetings, fiscal transparency, digital accessibility, and oversight bodies. Filter by country, pillar, and/or a substring of the law name, citation, or jurisdiction. Returns compact records with jurisdiction slugs; use get_open_records_law for full open-records detail.

NameTypeReqDescription
countrystring–Two-letter country code (e.g., "us", "de", "br")
limitnumber–Maximum results to return (default 20, max 100)

submit_service_request ~349

Submit a government service request (e.g., report a pothole, broken streetlight, illegal dumping). The request is validated, geocoded, classified, routed to the correct government entity, and recorded. Delivery is enabled per-entity: where the target channel is live, the request is transmitted (response delivery.state = "sent", or "held" when queued for review); for entities not yet enabled it is recorded and routable but not transmitted (delivery.state = "dry_run", or "handoff" with a redirect_url the user finishes). Always check delivery.state. Requires X-API-Key header. Rate limit: 2 requests/hour. Supported countries: US, IE (Ireland), GB (United Kingdom).
