bargo-congress
Bargo hosts a focused Streamable HTTP MCP server for the Congress Trades dataset at https://www.bargo.ai/free-apis/congress/mcp, exposing exactly three narrowly scoped read-only tools. The tool list below was captured live and verbatim from an anonymous JSON-RPC tools/list call (saved to bargo-congress-trades-api-tools-list.json) — handshake and tools/list are open, while tool CALLS require a free fak_ API key passed as X-Api-Key, as an Authorization Bearer header, or as a ?token= query parameter for connector UIs that cannot set headers. Every tool declares execution.taskSupport = forbidden, i.e. synchronous calls only, no long-running agent tasks.
One-click install for Cursor, VS Code, Claude, and 20+ other MCP clients, powered by API Commons MCP Install — visit install.apicommons.org for more information.

Connect
This is a remote MCP server — point an MCP client at the endpoint URL. Clients with native remote support (Claude, Cursor, VS Code, …):
For stdio-only clients (older Claude Desktop, etc.), bridge with mcp-remote:
If the server requires authentication, add the provider's token/header (e.g. an X-API-Key) per its docs. A quick reachability check:

About MCP
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol Anthropic introduced for connecting LLM-based agents to external tools and data sources. Providers publish MCP servers that expose their API surface as structured, discoverable tools — an MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Continue, etc.) can connect to the server and call its tools without any per-provider integration code.
Browse every MCP server on the APIs.io network or compare with the broader Agent Skill surfaces of the same providers.
Work with this as data
Every MCP server here is available over the APIs.io API and to AI agents over MCP.
