Open source

Small tools.
Careful work.

Public source from IT Custom Solution for accountable automation and government contracting. Read each project’s scope and limits before using it.

Automation & evidence

Make the handoff clear. Keep the decision and its evidence in view.

MCP server

Pause before the action.

approval-gate-mcp

Records approval requests and human decisions for an agent workflow, with expiry and single-use consumption of an approval.

Keep in mind

This is a cooperation protocol and audit trail. An agent with shell, PTY or file access as the same OS user can bypass it. It is not a sandbox or a sole control for unattended consequential actions.

Release: As of 22 October 2026: version 0.4.0 is on npm. Release record for approval-gate-mcp

Python utility

Leave a useful handoff.

task-handoff-check

Checks an explicit task handoff for its owner, next action, blockers, completion criteria and evidence references.

Keep in mind

A passing result checks structure and consistency. It does not establish that the claims are true, references exist or action is authorized.

Release: As of 22 October 2026: version 0.1.1 is on PyPI. Release record for task-handoff-check

Read scope & source for task-handoff-check
Python utility

Check the delivered bytes.

delivery-evidence-check

Creates and verifies SHA-256 manifests for explicitly named local files in a delivery or handoff.

Keep in mind

A matching hash establishes integrity relative to the manifest. Keep that manifest independently protected; a match does not prove truth, testing or completion.

Release: As of 22 October 2026: version 0.2.0 is on PyPI. Release record for delivery-evidence-check

Procurement & research

Find the notice. Read the requirements. Keep the source close.

MCP server

Start with the public notice.

sam-gov-mcp

Searches and reads public contract-opportunity notices through the SAM.gov API, using your own SAM.gov API key.

Keep in mind

Read-only notice research, without bid scoring or award-data lookup. API limits apply. Not affiliated with or endorsed by GSA or SAM.gov.

Release: As of 22 October 2026: version 0.2.0 is on npm. Release record for sam-gov-mcp

Read scope & source for sam-gov-mcp
Python utility

Read for the requirements.

bid-deadline-check

Uses local rules to extract written deadlines, page limits, forms and shall/must requirements from solicitation text or text-based PDFs.

Keep in mind

A checklist aid. Read the solicitation and every amendment yourself; scanned PDFs need text extraction and dates are reported as written.

Release: As of 22 October 2026: version 0.2.0 is on PyPI. Release record for bid-deadline-check

Markdown checklists

Work through the checklist.

govcon-smallbiz-toolkit

Practical checklists for bid/no-bid decisions, SAM.gov registration and basic small-business IT security, also supplied in agent-skill format.

Keep in mind

General guidance, not a compliance program. Verify the actual solicitation and current rules with the responsible authority.

Release: As of 22 October 2026: corrected checklists are on the default branch (source only; no package). Release record for govcon-smallbiz-toolkit
