Fac Overview
Fac MCP server exposes US Federal Audit Clearinghouse data for querying single-audit filings, federal award programs, recipients, and audit findings. It reads a periodically refreshed local copy of FAC bulk data rather than depending on the live FAC API, and requires no FAC API key. Use it to investigate federal grant spending, retrieve a recipient's audit history, search finding narratives, or screen across states, programs, and finding types. Responses include the timestamp of the latest successful data refresh.
- Find audits filed by a recipient or organization
- Trace federal spending under an Assistance Listing program
