## Quality 89/100 (new)

### protocol: 75 (weight 25)

- warn `protocol.modern`: newest supported version is 2025-11-25; 2026-07-28 not supported, older versions are deprecated until 2027-07-28
- n/a `protocol.stateless`: only applies to 2026-07-28 servers
- pass `protocol.transport`: streamable HTTP
- n/a `protocol.list_ttl`: only applies to 2026-07-28 servers

### authorization: n/a (weight 15)

- pass `tools.annotations`: 12 of 12 tools declare readOnlyHint or destructiveHint
- pass `tools.directory_hints`: every tool declares readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint and openWorldHint
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 3,904 tokens to load every tool
- pass `tools.api_dump`: tools are not a one-to-one API dump

### stability: n/a (weight 15)

- n/a `stability.changes`, `stability.rug_pull`: tool history recorded for 4 of the 7 days needed

### dependencies: n/a (weight 15)

- n/a `deps.known_vulns`, `deps.mcp_sdk_version`, `deps.resolvable`: no npm or PyPI package

- tools: 12, about 3,904 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: 36b3bcf7f206174154262c1e5edf6b78

- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

### Tool changes

- 2026-10-16 `get_cfr_changes` changed (description, inputSchema) **meaning changed**
  - before: Changes to codified CFR text from the eCFR. Not live yet: returns not_yet_available with alternatives.
  - after: Changes to codified CFR text from the eCFR (ecfr.gov): which sections got a new version, when (version, amendment and eCFR issue dates), whether eCFR marks it substantive or removed, links to the eCFR page and XML for that date, and Federal Register documents that probably made the change. Parts in watchlists are checked daily; any other part is read on first request. Give cfr_title and cfr_part (or a section like 63.2), or a watchlist with CFR filters. Version metadata, not a text diff; the eCFR is not the official legal edition.
- 2026-10-16 `get_regulatory_document` changed (description)
  - before: Full structured record for one Federal Register document: status, agencies, publication/comment/effective dates, RINs, dockets, CFR parts, official links, linked rulemakings, deadline history and any earlier Public Inspection filing. Also finds documents still on Public Inspection.
  - after: Full structured record for one Federal Register document: status, agencies, publication/comment/effective dates, RINs, dockets, CFR parts, official links, linked rulemakings, deadline history, any earlier Public Inspection filing, and (when configured) the Regulations.gov docket title, comment period and posted comment count. Also finds documents still on Public Inspection.

## Packages

_none_

## Tools (12)

- `compare_regulatory_documents`: Compare two Federal Register documents (or the latest proposed and final rule for a RIN): exact metadata differences plus sentence-level text differences with verbatim excerpts. Text comparison is labeled partial; it is not a legal redline.
- `get_cfr_changes`: Changes to codified CFR text from the eCFR (ecfr.gov): which sections got a new version, when (version, amendment and eCFR issue dates), whether eCFR marks it substantive or removed, links to the eCFR page and XML for that date, and Federal Register documents that probably made the change. Parts in watchlists are checked daily; any other part is read on first request. Give cfr_title and cfr_part (or a section like 63.2), or a watchlist with CFR filters. Version metadata, not a text diff; the eCFR is not the official legal edition.
- `get_regulatory_deadlines`: Upcoming comment deadlines or effective dates from the documents' structured fields, filtered by date range, agency, keywords, or one of your watchlists. Dates are calendar dates as published.
- `get_regulatory_document`: Full structured record for one Federal Register document: status, agencies, publication/comment/effective dates, RINs, dockets, CFR parts, official links, linked rulemakings, deadline history, any earlier Public Inspection filing, and (when configured) the Regulations.gov docket title, comment period and posted comment count. Also finds documents still on Public Inspection.
- `get_regulatory_intelligence_brief`: A structured, source-linked brief for one document: what happened, agency, status, who may be affected (from your watchlist when given), why it may matter, key dates, a suggested next step, sources, confidence and limitations. Built from source fields, not generated guesses.
- `get_regulatory_timeline`: Lifecycle of a rulemaking: proposed rule, comment periods, extensions, final rule, effective date, corrections and withdrawals, with observed events and deadline history. Give a RIN, a rulemaking_id or a document_number. Links are 'confirmed' (shared RIN) or 'probable' (shared docket); missing stages are never invented.
- `list_regulatory_alerts`: New alerts for this account's watchlists, highest priority first: new publications, Public Inspection filings (labeled prepublication), deadline extensions, effective-date changes, withdrawals, corrections and deadline reminders. Reading marks them delivered unless peek=true. An empty list means nothing new.
- `manage_business_profile`: Optional business profile used to suggest relevance: industries, NAICS codes, business size, regions, regulated activities, interests, federal contractor status. Give only what helps monitoring. action=get reads it.
- `manage_regulatory_watchlist`: Manage this account's watchlists. action=list needs nothing else; other actions need watchlist (name or id). update accepts new filters, alert_preferences or new_name.
- `rate_regulatory_alert`: Tell FedReg Tracker how relevant a document was: relevant, not_relevant, high_priority, already_reviewed, more_like_this or stop_tracking (no more alerts for that document).
- `search_federal_regulations`: Search U.S. Federal Register documents (final rules, proposed rules, notices, presidential documents) live from FederalRegister.gov. Filter by keywords, agency, document type, publication/comment/effective dates, CFR title and part, RIN, docket or industry. Every result states its legal status (a proposed rule is never binding) and official links. No account needed.
- `track_federal_regulations`: Save a persistent watchlist. FedReg Tracker then monitors the Federal Register and Public Inspection on its own schedule and queues alerts and deadline reminders, with no chat open. Example: 'Track new cybersecurity regulations affecting federal contractors' → {name:'cyber-contractors', filters:{keywords:['cybersecurity'], cfr:[{title:48}]}}. Requires an access key.
