04Response format

Every tool returns a consistent JSON response containing query results, data citations, vintage timestamps, and coverage indicators. Below is an annotated real response:

research.search_literature — Find DOE-funded work on perovskite solar cells, across both collections at once. A real response, captured at build time by replaying recorded publisher bytes; the replay's timestamps are pinned to the registry revision date and the request id is fixed, so the page rebuilds identically.

data: The answer. Held to a soft budget of about 2,000 tokens, so ten records arrive as ten readable answers rather than one truncated blob.
provenance: One entry per system that contributed, with the publisher triple — steward, funder, host — because at least five flagship “lab assets” are funded by another agency entirely.
dataset_version: Required, never blank. ATB 2024 and ATB 2026 are different data with the same name, and two versions in one answer raise mixed_vintages.
evidence: One entry per record, pointing back at a provenance entry and carrying the locator the publisher actually supplied. A guessed link is worse than none, so none is emitted.
coverage.registry: The dimension that matters most. none means DOE-MCP has no source and the data may well exist; covered with an empty result means the searched systems hold no record. Different answers, never reported the same way.
coverage.pagination: truncated whenever more matched than you received. OSTI returns its match count in a header and one page in the body; reading the page as the answer turns 4.4 million matches into “20 results”.
warnings: Typed, not prose. alias_match, domain_migrated, catalog_vintage, derived_layer, citation_required — each named for a confusion this ecosystem measurably produces.
access_recipes: Typed pointers for data too big to inline: a DOI, an S3 prefix, an OPeNDAP URL, a Globus endpoint. A 4.8-petabyte lake gets a recipe, not an attempt.
_execution: Which server, which tool contract, which adapter versions, which registry revision. Enough to reproduce the call.

Values are megawatts from BPA's own SCADA system.	—
ceser-eagle-i-outages active	Office of Cybersecurity, Energy Security, and Emergency Response host: Oak Ridge National Laboratory	The catalog records of EAGLE-I's annual historical outage releases: county-level counts of customers without power at 15-minute intervals, 2014 onward, with the documentation record and the county customer-count dataset that serves as the denominator.	7
doe-code-json active	Office of the Chief Information Officer	DOE's declared inventory of software releases across the department and its laboratories: name, description, repository URL, licence permissions, languages, and organization.	5,879
doe-mcp-registry active	The DOE-MCP project	Which public DOE systems this project knows about, who stewards and funds each one, what its terms say, what it does not cover, and what is blocking the ones that are not wired up. Plus the organization table with the alias sets that resolve former names and dead domains.	—
doe-open-data-catalog active	Office of the Chief Information Officer	DOE's declared inventory of public datasets across program offices, in the federal Project Open Data format.	483
doe-pure-resources active	Office of Science	The seven resources DOE's Office of Science designates as Public Reusable Research data resources, each with this project's own status against it.	7
eia-api-v2 active	US Energy Information Administration	US energy statistics as a self-describing tree: electricity (including EIA-930 hourly demand, generation and interchange by balancing authority), natural gas, petroleum, coal, nuclear outages, renewables, international, and more.	—
esgf-search active	Oak Ridge National Laboratory funder: Office of Science	Metadata for climate-model output published through the Earth System Grid Federation, CMIP6 above all: which model ran which experiment for which variable, at what frequency and resolution, over what period, and which data node holds the files.	14,217,502
ess-dive active	Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory funder: Biological and Environmental Research	Data from DOE's environmental system science programme: terrestrial ecosystem, watershed, and subsurface biogeochemistry studies, including the NGEE Arctic and Tropics campaigns, SPRUCE, and the integrated field laboratories.	1,571
federal-register-doe active	Office of the Federal Register (National Archives)	Rules, proposed rules, notices, and presidential documents published by DOE and its component agencies, with docket ids, CFR references, regulatory identifiers, and links to the full text. FERC's documents are excluded by scope, not by the publisher.	10,000
fueleconomy-ws active	US Department of Energy funder: US Environmental Protection Agency host: Oak Ridge National Laboratory	Official EPA fuel-economy ratings for US-market vehicles from 1984 onward, roughly 140 fields per vehicle including city/highway/combined ratings, tailpipe CO2, electric range and consumption for EVs and PHEVs, and annual fuel cost. Plus current national average fuel prices by fuel type.	—

gcam-water active	Pacific Northwest National Laboratory	Water use input tables from the Global Change Analysis Model.	—
lbnl-mp-optimade active	Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory funder: Office of Science	Crystal structures of inorganic materials as the OPTIMADE standard describes them: elements and their ratios, reduced, descriptive and Hill formulas, site count, lattice vectors, space group, and dimensionality, plus the Materials Project's own stability fields.	154,387
nersc-status active	Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory funder: Office of Science	Current status of every NERSC system (compute, filesystems, services) and the schedule of planned outages, as JSON.	19
nmdc-runtime active	Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory funder: Office of Science	Microbiome studies and their biosamples across a multi-laboratory collaboration: ecosystem classification, environmental terms, place, coordinates, collection date and depth for each sample, and investigators, funding and DOIs for each study.	85
ornl-daac active	Oak Ridge National Laboratory funder: National Aeronautics and Space Administration	Biogeochemical and ecological data, including Daymet daily surface weather for North America — queryable one pixel at a time, which is the rare bulk-science case with a genuine subsetting service — and MODIS/VIIRS land-product subsets, which are not wired up.	—
ornl-openenergyhub active	Oak Ridge National Laboratory	ORNL-hosted energy datasets across transportation electrification, grid, and buildings, including EV Watts and ARPA-E PERFORM.	185
osti-data-explorer active	Office of Scientific and Technical Information	Metadata and DOIs for DOE-funded research datasets held at national laboratories, user facilities, universities, and other repositories. Discovery layer only: DDE hosts no data.	1,030,767
osti-doe-code active	Office of Scientific and Technical Information	DOE-funded scientific and business software: open-source projects with repository links, and closed-source project metadata. Licences, developers with ORCIDs, sponsoring organizations, and DOIs.	7,675
osti-doe-pages active	Office of Scientific and Technical Information	Peer-reviewed scholarly publications resulting from DOE funding, with full text — accepted manuscript or published version — under DOE's Public Access Policy.	260,246
osti-gov-records active	Office of Scientific and Technical Information	DOE's master collection of research results: technical reports, journal articles and accepted manuscripts, conference papers, patents, books and theses, plus metadata for datasets and software held elsewhere.	4,381,671
usgs-uspvdb active	US Geological Survey funder: Office of Critical Materials and Energy Innovation host: US Geological Survey	Locations, array boundaries, and facility attributes (panel technology, axis type, site type, first year of operation, power region) for ground-mounted PV facilities of one megawatt or more.	6,611
usgs-uswtdb active	US Geological Survey funder: Office of Critical Materials and Energy Innovation host: US Geological Survey	Location, project, and turbine specifications for every utility- scale wind turbine in the United States, land-based and offshore, with FAA identifiers and the project's capacity and year.	75,727
alcf-status inventory	Argonne National Laboratory funder: Office of Science	Current status of ALCF systems and their scheduled maintenance, as presented by the facility's own status page. Blocked: Blocked probe. The status page is an Angular application and its data paths return HTTP 403 with a Cloudflare challenge to a scripted client, which under decision 0007 is blocked_probe and NOT gated: a WAF refusing this client shape says nothing about whether the data is public. One real-browser check, watching the application's own network calls, would settle both the endpoint and the posture. Joins the blocked-probe backlog. Note, 2026-10-20. One plain GET of the status page answered 200 with the application shell, so the 403 did not recur; one probe from one machine is not evidence that the posture changed. The page's own data path was found and is not a candidate: it is undocumented and carries queued and running job records, which this project does not read for any facility. ALCF documents a separate machine route, its implementation of the IRI Facility API at api.alcf.anl.gov, whose status reads answered a plain GET with JSON. Under decision 0025 that is a different source with its own terms, and it waits on a terms review before it is registered; this manifest stays proposed until then.	—
ames-gamess inventory	Ames National Laboratory	A quantum chemistry program developed at Ames. Blocked: Software distribution, not a data API. Nothing to build; registered for crosswalk truthfulness.	—
anl-atct inventory	Argonne National Laboratory	Thermochemical values from a self-consistent thermochemical network. Blocked: No API found. A PuRe resource with no machine interface is worth an email.	—
anl-gem inventory	Argonne National Laboratory funder: Grid Deployment Office (dismantled)	Energy infrastructure siting layers: transmission, generation, environmental constraints. Blocked: Blocked probe. Needs one browser-grade check before its access posture can be recorded.	—
anl-mdf inventory	Argonne National Laboratory	Published materials-science datasets with searchable metadata. Blocked: Phase 4. Needs a globus_search adapter and the credential model extended to Globus tokens, which behave unlike API keys.	880
arm-data-center inventory	Oak Ridge National Laboratory	Atmospheric measurements from ARM's fixed and mobile observatories: radiometers, radars, lidars, sondes, and derived value- added products. One of DOE's seven designated PuRe data resources. Blocked: Phase 4. Needs the earth server, the account-token credential path, and the citation block wired end to end.	—
arpa-e-projects inventory	Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy	ARPA-E funded projects: programme, performer, award amount, status, technology area. Blocked: Phase 5 and Gate E. The endpoint works today; the posture decision (harvest, do not proxy) is what makes this a scheduled job rather than an adapter.	1,721
bnl-nndc-bulk inventory	Brookhaven National Laboratory	Evaluated nuclear structure and reaction data: ENSDF, ENDF libraries, NuDat. Blocked: Blocked on decision 0011's open sub-question: ingest these bulk files or wrap IAEA's API. Weighted toward ingest because of the snapshot age, and deliberately left to Phase 4.	—
doe-ai-use-case-inventory inventory	Office of the Chief Information Officer	DOE's declared artificial-intelligence use cases across the department. Blocked: Spreadsheet-parse job; early-phase-eligible but low priority.	—
doe-ccms-certification inventory	Office of Critical Materials and Energy Innovation	Manufacturer certification records for consumer products and commercial equipment covered by federal energy-conservation standards: model numbers, rated performance, and compliance statements. Blocked: Blocked probe. One browser-grade check settles it; then the export format decides whether this is a thin proxy or a parsed copy under Gate E.	—
doe-directives inventory	US Department of Energy	DOE's own orders, policies, standards, and guides. Blocked: Crawler-class work behind Gate B; Phase 5.	—
doe-nepa-documents inventory	US Department of Energy	DOE's National Environmental Policy Act documents. Blocked: Deliberately not built: NEPA-MCP serves it. Registered so the registry can say so and route the caller there, which is the difference between a coverage gap and a coverage decision.	—
edf-loan-portfolio inventory	Energy Dominance Financing	DOE loan and loan-guarantee portfolio: borrowers, technologies, amounts, status. Blocked: Map backend unverified. Next step is the JavaScript-bundle probe that worked on ARPA-E.	—
fnal-experiment-releases inventory	Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory	Public data releases from Fermilab neutrino and collider experiments. Blocked: Pointer-only by design. Nothing to build beyond registry entries.	—
iaea-live-chart inventory	International Atomic Energy Agency	Nuclear structure and decay properties, and NuDat-derived quantities. Blocked: Phase 4, and blocked on a decision rather than on work: whether to ingest NNDC's bulk files or wrap this API. The April 2022 snapshot is the argument against wrapping.	—
inl-digital-library inventory	Idaho National Laboratory	INL's own document repository. Blocked: Blocked probe. Needs one browser-grade check before anything can be said about it.	—
inl-moose inventory	Idaho National Laboratory	A finite-element multiphysics framework used across nuclear and energy modelling. Blocked: Software; already discoverable through DOE CODE. No separate integration needed.	—
jgi-gold inventory	Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory funder: Office of Science	Metadata for genome and metagenome sequencing projects worldwide: organism, ecosystem classification, sequencing status, and links to the data at JGI and elsewhere. Blocked: Phase 4 with the bio server, and one verification first: whether the API's Keycloak token is obtainable with a free account, or whether the Excel export is the only route.	—
jlab-ildg inventory	Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility	Lattice QCD gauge configuration catalogs within an international federation. Blocked: TLS and authentication behaviour unverified; one probe would settle it.	—
lanl-sequence-databases outreach pending	Los Alamos National Laboratory funder: National Institutes of Health	Curated HIV, HCV, and hemorrhagic-fever virus sequence and immunology databases. Blocked: Outreach pending. The right first question is whether a sanctioned programmatic route exists for research use; the answer belongs in the repository either way.	—
lbnl-ameriflux inventory	Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory	Eddy-covariance carbon, water, and energy flux measurements across the Americas. Blocked: Tiered policy with per-tier obligations. Metadata is the safe surface; data access needs the policy tiers modelled properly first.	—
lbnl-emp-datasets inventory	Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory	Tracking the Sun (roughly 4.5 million distributed solar systems), Queued Up (interconnection queue analysis), and Utility-Scale Solar. Blocked: Phase 3. Spreadsheet parsing per annual edition; no access obstacle.	—
lbnl-materials-project inventory	Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory	Computed properties of inorganic materials: structures, energetics, electronic structure, phase diagrams. Blocked: Phase 4. Adding `mp-api` to the materials extra is the whole integration; the work is the tool contract, not the access.	—
lbnl-pdg inventory	Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory	Reviewed particle properties: masses, lifetimes, decay modes, branching ratios. Blocked: Machine interface not established. One probe would settle whether this is thin-proxy or pointer-only.	—
llnl-open-data-initiative inventory	Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory	Selected LLNL datasets released publicly. Blocked: Pointer-shaped; low volume. Phase 4 at the earliest.	—
lm-gems inventory	Office of Legacy Management	Environmental monitoring data for DOE legacy sites. Blocked: ArcGIS backend probe pending; a browser-grade check would settle it.	—
netl-edx inventory	National Energy Technology Laboratory	NETL's data repository: carbon storage and transport, subsurface characterisation, critical minerals, and the 2025-26 HGEO tool wave — NATCARB Viewer 2.0, the CO2 transport planning database (90+ GB across 40+ layers), Smart CO2 Transport, CS PlanIT, CONNECT/Carbon Matchmaker, ClaiMM, and GAIA. Blocked: Phase 4, and one verification first: the GeoCube service enumeration needs a browser-grade fetch, because the plain-client probe returns nothing at all rather than an error to read.	—
nlr-atb inventory	National Laboratory of the Rockies	Cost and performance baselines and projections by generation technology. Blocked: There is no API. atb.nlr.gov answers and its data pages resolve, but /api returns 404 and the machine-readable release is bulk CSV and parquet under the ATB/ prefix of the OEDI data lake on S3. That is the `s3_bulk` genre, which is not built, and a bulk release is not a thin proxy. Verified 2026-09-08.	—
nlr-cambium inventory	National Laboratory of the Rockies	Hourly marginal and average emission rates, costs, and capacity by scenario and year. Blocked: Phase 3, with the energy-tech server. The post-rename URLs are no longer the obstacle: scenarioviewer.nlr.gov answers, and its /api/projects/ route returned the scenario list as JSON to a scripted client on 2026-09-08. What is missing is a home server and a tool contract over an hourly, scenario-indexed dataset.	—
nlr-developer-network inventory	National Laboratory of the Rockies host: General Services Administration	Around twenty renewable-energy and transportation APIs: modelled photovoltaic production, solar and wind resource data, electricity tariffs, alternative-fuel stations, techno-economic optimisation, and route energy consumption. Blocked: Phase 3. Needs the apidatagov_rest adapter and the credential UX proven out on EIA first (Phase 2), since this is the key whose shared budget is the more dangerous of the two.	—
nlr-duramat-datahub inventory	National Laboratory of the Rockies funder: Office of Critical Materials and Energy Innovation	Photovoltaic module durability datasets: field degradation, accelerated testing, materials characterisation, and the consortium's own analysis tools. Blocked: Machine interface unconfirmed, and narrowed on 2026-09-08 rather than found. The application is a React micro-frontend whose two entry bundles are 12 KB loaders carrying no host or API path; the real chunks are fetched at runtime, so the interface is not reachable by reading the served files. A browser look at the portal's own network calls is now the only remaining step, and it is the same browser sweep the blocked-probe backlog needs. Then it is a ckan genre source alongside NETL EDX.	—
nlr-geothermal-data-repository inventory	National Laboratory of the Rockies	Geothermal research data from DOE-funded projects, including the FORGE observatory. The site's own statistics block reports 1,407 datasets and 764 TB; its sitemap carries 1,451 submission pages. Blocked: No API exists. 71% is reachable now through DOE Data Explorer; the remaining 29% needs a sitemap harvest and Gate E review for retaining harvested content.	1,451
nlr-lab-partnering-service inventory	National Laboratory of the Rockies host: General Services Administration	DOE's Lab Partnering Service: laboratory experts, available technologies, and facilities across the complex, for partnership discovery. Blocked: Phase 5, with the rest of the NLR network key work.	—
oced-community-benefits-map inventory	Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations	Community benefit commitments attached to OCED demonstration projects. Blocked: Map backend unverified; same JavaScript-bundle probe as the EDF portfolio.	—
oedi-data-lake inventory	National Laboratory of the Rockies	4.8 petabytes across roughly 2,825 datasets from around 310 providers: solar and wind resource data, building stock models, transportation, and geothermal. Blocked: The catalog's machine interface is unidentified — the documented API path returns a help stub. Next step is a browser-grade look at what the catalog UI itself calls.	2,825
olcf-status inventory	Oak Ridge National Laboratory funder: Office of Science	Current status of OLCF systems, including Frontier, and their scheduled maintenance. Blocked: No machine interface found. status.olcf.ornl.gov does not resolve in DNS; the center-status page is a 1.5 KB stub; and the lab site's WordPress API exposes only WordPress's own routes, where /wp/v2/statuses is post statuses rather than system status. The next step is asking OLCF whether one exists rather than guessing at more paths.	—
openei-urdb inventory	National Laboratory of the Rockies	US electricity tariffs: rate structures, energy and demand charges, applicability. Blocked: Phase 3, with the rest of the NLR network.	—
ornl-bioenergy-kdf inventory	Oak Ridge National Laboratory funder: Alternative Fuels and Feedstocks Office	Biomass feedstock resource assessments, domestic and international. Blocked: Map backend unconfirmed; same browser-grade check as HydroSource.	—
ornl-constellation inventory	Oak Ridge National Laboratory	ORNL-produced datasets deposited institutionally. Blocked: Already reachable through DOE Data Explorer; a direct integration is low value.	—
ornl-faf inventory	Oak Ridge National Laboratory funder: US Department of Transportation	US freight movement estimates by commodity, mode, origin, and destination. Blocked: No API. Bulk ingest plus Gate E review; low priority against the energy domains.	—
ornl-hydrosource inventory	Oak Ridge National Laboratory	US hydropower resource, infrastructure, and environmental datasets. Blocked: Map backend unconfirmed. Next step is a browser-grade look at the portal's own network calls.	—
ornl-landscan inventory	Oak Ridge National Laboratory funder: National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency	Ambient population distribution at roughly 1 km resolution, global. Blocked: Access tier unresolved and the docs host blocks scripted probes. Next step is a browser check plus an attempted download; the answer decides whether this is thin-proxy or pointer-only.	—
ornl-oncat inventory	Oak Ridge National Laboratory	Metadata for neutron scattering experiments at ORNL's user facilities. Blocked: Public tier unconfirmed. Named in architecture Part 1 section 4.7 as an email to send.	—
ornl-tedb inventory	Oak Ridge National Laboratory funder: Office of Critical Materials and Energy Innovation	Transportation statistics with an energy emphasis: vehicle stock, fuel use, travel, emissions, and cost tables compiled from federal sources. Blocked: Spreadsheet parsing per edition plus Gate E review; low priority against the energy domains until the vehicle tools want context tables.	—
pnnl-emsl-science-central inventory	Pacific Northwest National Laboratory	Released datasets from EMSL user projects: mass spectrometry, NMR, imaging, and computation. Blocked: Download is account-gated; discovery already works through DOE Data Explorer.	—
pnnl-mhkdr inventory	Pacific Northwest National Laboratory	Marine and hydrokinetic energy research data: wave, tidal, and current energy projects. Blocked: Harvesting-API documentation not located. Next step is asking PNNL directly.	—
pnnl-phoenix-hanford inventory	Pacific Northwest National Laboratory funder: Office of Environmental Management	Hanford Site environmental data: groundwater monitoring, waste- site inventory, tank-farm monitoring, and site geography, served through map layers and query applications. Blocked: Phase 4. The Geoservice answers, but the query applications behind PHOENIX need a browser look at their own network calls before a tool contract can be written.	—
pnnl-tethys-primre inventory	Pacific Northwest National Laboratory	Literature and data on environmental effects of marine renewable and wind energy. Blocked: Phase 4, with the marine-energy family.	—
pnnl-vips inventory	Pacific Northwest National Laboratory	Patents held and software released by the seventeen national laboratories and four NNSA production sites, for technology-transfer lookup: title, abstract, inventors, assignees, first claim, patent status and dates, software type, licences and repository, plus a subject taxonomy and a list of similar records. 15,179 patents and 7,484 software records at the 2026-09-08 count. Blocked: Search requires an API key as of 2026-10-20. Credential issuance, publisher policy and cost need review before a supported credential path can be added. Recorded responses are historical, not live access.	22,663
pnnl-wind-data-hub inventory	Pacific Northwest National Laboratory funder: Office of Critical Materials and Energy Innovation	More than 242 TB of lidar, meteorological, and model data from wind- energy research campaigns. Blocked: Account-gated and bulk-shaped; Phase 4, pointer-first.	—
pppl-fusionrate inventory	Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory	Fusion reaction rate coefficients and cross sections. Blocked: Small library rather than a data service; discoverable through DOE CODE.	—
regulations-gov-doe inventory	General Services Administration	Dockets, documents, and public comments for DOE rulemakings, including the appliance and equipment standards program. Blocked: Phase 3 or later: needs the apidatagov_rest adapter and the credential UX that EIA is proving out. Ships with the Federal Register source under the docs capability.	—
sbir-doe-awards inventory	US Small Business Administration funder: US Department of Energy	Small Business Innovation Research and STTR awards funded by DOE since 1983: company, topic, phase, amount, and abstract. Blocked: Blocked probe. One browser-grade check settles whether the API is open to scripted clients; then it is a Phase 5 projects-server source with no adapter work beyond a REST genre.	—
sc-pams-awards inventory	Office of Science	Office of Science financial-assistance awards since 2014: institution, principal investigator, program office, amount, and abstract. Blocked: Tier C. A WebForms postback is a scrape; deferred until a projects server exists and Gate E has reviewed an export-and-parse job.	—
slac-software-releases inventory	SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory	SLAC's public software output. Blocked: Facility-gated by design; software is already covered through DOE CODE.	—
snl-batteryarchive inventory	Sandia National Laboratories	Battery cycling and ageing datasets from several institutions, presented uniformly. Blocked: Endpoint unverified. Next step is a browser-grade check for a machine interface behind the browsing UI; if there is none, this becomes a pointer-only source.	—
snl-gesdb outreach pending	Sandia National Laboratories	Global energy storage projects: technology, capacity, status, ownership. Blocked: Outreach pending. Send the Gate-G note to Sandia's energy storage group asking whether sanctioned programmatic access exists, and record the answer in-repo whatever it is. Until then this is inventory, and the DDE route is what a caller is pointed at.	—
snl-pvpmc-modules inventory	Sandia National Laboratories	Photovoltaic module electrical parameters for modelling. Blocked: Phase 3. Needs a zenodo_static adapter and Gate E review for retaining a parsed copy.	16,857
srnl-srs-environmental-reports inventory	Savannah River National Laboratory	Environmental monitoring at the Savannah River Site. Blocked: PDF-only corpus; deferred indefinitely. Registered so the crosswalk can answer truthfully for SRNL.	—

06Other MCP servers

DOE-MCP is not the only MCP server over DOE-adjacent data and does not try to be. MCP offers no mechanism for one server to advertise or install another (checked against the protocol on 2026-09-01), so these carry executable install commands rather than links — and each says plainly why this project does not duplicate it.

Server or skill pack	Status	Why DOE-MCP does not duplicate it	Install
EnergyPlus-MCP and OpenStudio-MCP LBNL Energy Technologies Area; National Laboratory of the Rockies	listed opaque	A different product class. These wrap SIMULATORS — you give them a model and they run it — where DOE-MCP serves published data. Wrapping a simulator means owning its installation, its version compatibility, and its runtime, none of which the provenance envelope has anything useful to say about. The 185 or more combined tools would also breach the sizing ceiling ninefold.	`git clone https://github.com/LBNL-ETA/EnergyPlus-MCP`
Genesis Agent Skills (DOE ModCon) ModCon BASE team, co-led by PNNL and Berkeley Lab · skill pack	listed opaque	It is instructions rather than data or tools, so there is nothing for DOE-MCP to wrap. Its subtrees carry different licenses and some carry none, so nothing is copied here. DOE-MCP's own skills use the same Agent Skills file format. The October review checked them with the upstream validator. Since then, local demos have applied selected Genesis methods to DOE records without running the upstream scripts.	`git clone https://github.com/AI-ModCon/genesis-skills`
DOE Genesis Mission MCP deployments (gated) Various DOE national laboratories	watch opaque	Access-gated by design and pointed at internal instruments, facilities, and compute. Wrapping a gated server would produce a tool that fails for every public user, which is worse than not having it. The named watch items are BNL's PanDA MCP, Argonne's Globus-service MCPs and LBNL's CBorg.	`unavailable — access is gated (OneID / RFA / SSO)`
Materials Project MCP (inside mp-api) Materials Project, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory	watch full	It IS absorbed, which is why this entry exists to say so. Materials Project ships its first-party MCP server inside the `mp-api` Python library (search and fetch shipped as of 0.46.0; fetch_all, fetch_many, phase-diagram lookup and an mpmcp CLI in development). Because the upstream ships a LIBRARY rather than only a server, decision 0011 routes it to depend-and-wrap: declare the dependency, write thin tools over it, and avoid asking a user to install and configure a second MCP server for one domain. The library's surface is reshaped into DOE-MCP's tool contract rather than re-exported, because 0014's sizing bands bind a wrapper like anything else.	`pip install "doe-mcp[materials]"`
NASA Earthdata (CMR) MCP NASA Earthdata	listed opaque	Another agency's data and another agency's server, already hosted and already working. Rebuilding it would duplicate NASA's own infrastructure to no one's benefit. The overlap with DOE-MCP is narrow and specific — the ORNL DAAC — and there the publisher triple already carries the answer on every provenance entry: ORNL operates it, NASA funds it.	`remote server — configure the endpoint cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/mcp/v1`
NEPA-MCP Pacific Northwest National Laboratory	listed opaque	Server-only and far too large. 56 tools across 23 servers is more than twice the hard ceiling a single DOE-MCP profile may carry, and its release cadence — every three to six days — would make any wrapper permanently behind. DOE-MCP registers the underlying NEPA document database as a `proposed` manifest that says exactly this, so the registry answers "not a gap, a decision".	`pipx install nepa-mcp`

07Licensing and governance

Code Apache-2.0. The source registry is CC0 — the inventory of what exists, who stewards it, what its terms say, and what it does not cover is more useful unencumbered than as anything this project owns. Documentation CC-BY-4.0. Recorded publisher responses keep their publishers' terms, itemised in THIRD_PARTY_DATA.yml, with contact details redacted before anything reaches disk.

In the repository: CONTRIBUTING.md, CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md, SECURITY.md, CITATION.cff, NOTICE, AGENTS.md, and design/architecture.md — the system in Part 1 and all eighteen decisions in Part 2, each keeping the options it rejected, because six months from now the useful question is not what was chosen but what was given up and whether the reason still holds.
