Summary
Connects Claude to U.S. federal government data through the Govbase API. You get programmatic access to congressional bills, legislator profiles, voting records, and general civic information without scraping government sites or parsing PDFs yourself. Reach for this when you're building tools that need to look up how representatives voted, track bill status, or surface policy information in conversational interfaces. The streamable HTTP transport means you can run it remotely without local setup. Useful for civic tech projects, policy research tools, or any application where you need structured access to what's happening in Congress.
