io.github.healersfind-alt/organic-web-checker
USDA NOP organic compliance checks — operation websites vs live OID certificate data.
What can you do with io.github.healersfind-alt/organic-web-checker?
- ✅ Verified — product representation found on the cert
- 🔴 Flagged — organic representation with no matching cert item
- 🟡 Caution — close name variation, processing-form question, or grouped-scope match requiring review by the certifying agent
Install
Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).
claude mcp add --transport http organic-web-checker 'https://www.organicwebchecker.com/mcp' --header 'X-API-Key: <API key — issue one at https://www.organicwebchecker.com/api>'

What it does
Organic Web Checker (OWC) compares products marketed as organic on a certified operation's public website against the operation's live USDA OID certificate. It surfaces:
- ✅ Verified — product representation found on the cert
- 🔴 Flagged — organic representation with no matching cert item
- 🟡 Caution — close name variation, processing-form question, or grouped-scope match requiring review by the certifying agent
Built for organic certifying agents, compliance consultants, and certified operations doing self-review. Decision-support tool — not a compliance determination. Manual review of flagged items is required.

Regulatory context
OWC checks public-facing organic representations against publicly available OID certificate information. It acknowledges:
- Retail exemption — 7 CFR §205.101(a)(2)
- Handler/OSP scope — 7 CFR §205.201; detailed product coverage held by the certifying agent
- SOE rule (March 19, 2024) — brokers, traders, importers, exporters now require handler certification
Results are decision-support only. Final compliance determinations are made by certifying agents.
