CivicDataForge is a production remote MCP server for AI agents that provides ten source-bound government-record evidence tools plus four run helpers across property compliance, healthcare exclusions, regulated facilities, environmental records, Norway company evidence, and jurisdiction routing. Public initialize and tool discovery require no credential; execution uses the caller’s own Apify API token in the X-Apify-Token header. Results preserve official source links, scope limits, provenance, and failure states through one stable endpoint.
