Or point any MCP client at https://regulatory.datakoot.com/mcp.
Try it in 10 seconds — no key, no signup
Paste this into a terminal:
curl -s https://regulatory.datakoot.com/mcp \
-H 'content-type: application/json' \
-H 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
-d '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": {"name": "search_documents", "arguments": {"term": "artificial intelligence"}}}'
You get recent US Federal Register documents that mention artificial intelligence — no API key, nothing to sign up for.
Or point any MCP client at the URL and just ask your agent, in plain language:
- "What new federal regulations mention artificial intelligence?"
- "Show me the latest executive orders."
