Tools (7)
🟢search_opportunities(keywords, naics_codes, set_aside, notice_type, agency, ...)
Search active federal contract opportunities on SAM.gov: solicitations, presolicitations, sources sought, RFIs, and award notices - filterable by keywords, NAICS, set-aside (SDVOSB, 8(a), HUBZone, WOSB, small business), notice type, agency, and posted-date range (max 1 year). Call this when the user wants to find federal bidding opportunities or market intelligence on what agencies are buying. Uses a shared daily budget unless the caller supplies their own free SAM.gov key.

Keyless and unlimited. Call this for competitive intelligence ("who holds contracts in this space"), incumbent research, or agency spending patterns.
