## MCP tools (2)

### `it_tender_search` (~486 tokens)

Search ITALIAN public-sector tenders and contract notices from ANAC (Autorità Nazionale Anticorruzione), the national anti-corruption authority that runs Italy's public-procurement notice register (the "cig" dataset — one notice per CIG, Codice Identificativo Gara). ANAC exposes no live search of its own, so this answers from a locally refreshed recent-window copy (see data_as_of and the window fields in the response). Filter by free-text keyword (matched against the Italian title and CPV category description), CPV code or prefix (e.g. "45" for construction, "72000000" for IT services), buyer name substring (Italian spelling, e.g. "Comune di Milano", "ASL", "Regione"), Italian province code, and a publish-date range. Returns compact shaped notices: CIG, title, buyer, province/region, contract type, amount (EUR), status, CPV, publish date, offer deadline, and outcome if communicated. Call it_tender_detail with a CIG for the full record.

Input parameters:

- `buyer` (string): Contracting-authority (buyer) name, partial match, Italian spelling, e.g. "Comune di Roma", "ASL Napoli", "Ministero".
- `cpv` (string): CPV classification code or numeric prefix, e.g. "45" (construction works), "72000000" (IT services).
- `date_from` (string): Earliest PUBLISH date, YYYY-MM-DD. Defaults to 90 days before date_to.
- `date_to` (string): Latest PUBLISH date, YYYY-MM-DD. Defaults to the newest date in the loaded window (see window_to in any response), which can trail today by months because ANAC publishes monthly bulk files.
- `limit` (number|string): Max notices to return (default 20, max 100). Newest-first.
- `province` (string): Italian province name as ANAC records it, e.g. "MILANO", "ROMA", "NAPOLI" (case-insensitive exact match).
- `query` (string): Keyword(s), case-insensitive, matched against the Italian notice title and CPV category description, e.g. "ospedale", "pulizia", "software", "manutenzione strade".

### `it_tender_detail` (~164 tokens)

Fetch one ITALIAN public-procurement notice by its CIG (Codice Identificativo Gara — the unique id ANAC assigns every public contract above a minimal threshold) from the ANAC "cig" register. Returns the full record: title, buyer (with tax code), province/region, contract type, amount, lot count, sector, procedure type, realization mode, CPV code/description, publish date, offer deadline, and outcome (aggiudicata/revocata/etc.) with its communication date when ANAC has recorded one. Use after it_tender_search returns a CIG.

Input parameters:

- `cig` (string, required): The notice's CIG, e.g. "B82436559F". Returned by it_tender_search.

### What licence is the Italy Tenders MCP server under?

### What did VerifyMCP test on the Italy Tenders MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 16 checks on Italy Tenders, covering Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health and 12 more. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to an npm package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
