Who it is for
Oversight analysts, policy researchers, and journalists tracking federal audits, recommendations, and agency reporting.
GovQuery
Search engine for US federal oversight reports
Overview
What GovQuery does
GovQuery indexes United States government reporting and makes it searchable from the chat. Built by the Program Integrity Alliance, it draws on more than 300,000 articles, reports, and oversight recommendations. Each result links to the page where the text appears, and its filters go finer than the categories the source sites offer.
Sources include Government Accountability Office reports, inspector general material on Oversight.gov, Congressional Research Service work, Department of Justice press releases, executive orders from the last six presidents, and annual agency CJ, AFR, and PAR reports issued since 2019 under the CFO Act of 1990. Open oversight recommendations are also covered, with tools to group them by category and follow trends over time.
A free account can be registered on the Program Integrity Alliance site, and new sources are added on a rolling basis.
What stands out
Coverage centers on oversight material specifically, including open GAO and inspector general recommendations that can be followed over time.

Where GovQuery is listed
Program Integrity Alliance (PIA) ships this on both marketplaces: GovQuery is listed in the Claude connectors directory and in the ChatGPT apps directory, under the same publisher domain.
Only 392 of the 3,150 products in this directory are listed in both marketplaces. One MCP server can serve both surfaces; what differs is each platform's listing and review process.

Claude listing
In the Claude connectors directory
GovQuery publishes 2 tools to Claude, a deliberately narrow surface; only 5.3% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer.
The median Claude-listed connector filed under Productivity publishes 12, so this one sits 10 tools below its bucket's median, 408th of 462.
It falls in the 1-3 tools band, which holds 16.4% of the Claude directory.
GovQuery publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally.
Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there.

GovQuery is community-listed in the Claude directory, the tier 770 of 1,253 connectors sit in (61.5%). It is the default for a self-published server, and says nothing either way about quality.
In the publisher's words
How Program Integrity Alliance (PIA) describes it
GovQuery is a powerful search engine that makes U.S. government reports and data easier to explore, locate, and understand. Built by the Program Integrity Alliance, GovQuery processes over 300,000 open access articles, reports, and oversight recommendations to make them more digestible for AI platforms — offering deeper, more targeted search than general-purpose engines. Every result links to the exact page where content appears, and you can filter by granular categories unavailable on the source platforms. Data sources currently include: - Reports from the Government Accountability Office (GAO), Federal Inspectors - General (Oversight.gov), and the Congressional Research Service (CRS) - Annual reports from Chief Financial Officers (CFO) Act of 1990 agencies — Agency Financial Reports (AFRs), Performance & Accountability Reports(PFRs), and Congressional Budget Justifications (CJs) since 2019 - Department of Justice press releases - Executive orders (last six presidents) GovQuery also includes all open oversight recommendations from the GAO and Federal Inspectors General (Oversight.gov), with tools to analyze them by category and track trends over time. New data sources are added regularly. For more information, see our FAQ (https://www.programintegrity.org/faq)
