Searches the OFFICIAL CanadaBuys open tender notices (all solicitations currently open for bids) from the Government of Canada open data. Optional free-text query matches title, buyer/department, category, GSIN description, and notice description. Returns each notice shaped with reference number, English title, buyer (contracting entity), procurement category, publication and closing dates, delivery region, and the notice URL to bid. |\n| `canada_search_awards` | PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for Government of Canada contract AWARDS — \"who won federal contract X\", \"recent CanadaBuys awards for consulting\", \"which supplier was awarded a government contract in Quebec\". Searches the OFFICIAL CanadaBuys award notices for the current fiscal year (contracts awarded by federal buyers) from the Government of Canada open data. Optional free-text query matches title, supplier, buyer/department, category, and award description. Returns each award shaped with reference/contract number, English title, awarded supplier, buyer (contracting entity), contract value and currency, award date, procurement category, and the notice URL. |\n\n## Quick Start\n\nAdd to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):\n\n```json\n{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"canada-tenders\": {\n      \"url\": \"https://gateway.pipeworx.io/canada-tenders/mcp\"\n    }\n  }\n}\n```\n\n### What this endpoint actually serves\n\n`tools/list` at `https://gateway.pipeworx.io/canada-tenders/mcp` returns the tools in the table\nabove **plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools** — `ask_pipeworx`,\n`discover_tools`, `search_within`, `remember`/`recall` and the rest of the\ngateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a\nsingle-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the\npack's own. The connection's `initialize` response states its exact scope, and\nis the authoritative answer for a given day.\n\nThis is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a\nscoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via\n`ask_pipeworx`, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a\nsecond MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without\nthem; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth,\nconnect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.\n\nOr connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed\ndirectly, instead of just this one's:\n\n```json\n{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"pipeworx\": {\n      \"url\": \"https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp\"\n    }\n  }\n}\n```\n\nBoth URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1476+ data sources. The\nonly difference is which pack's tools are listed **directly**; `ask_pipeworx`\nreaches all of them from either one.\n\n## Using with ask_pipeworx\n\nInstead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English —\nthis works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:\n\n```\nask_pipeworx({ question: \"your question about Canada Tenders data\" })\n```\n\nThe gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.\n\n## More\n\n- [Docs and guides](https://pipeworx.io/docs)\n- [pipeworx.io](https://pipeworx.io)\n\n## License\n\nMIT\n",
