Overview

jgrants-mcp is a specialized Model Context Protocol server that wraps Japan's jGrants public API for digital subsidy applications. It provides three well-documented tools: list_subsidies for searching current subsidies by keyword, get_subsidy_detail for retrieving comprehensive subsidy information including metadata for attached documents, and download_attachment for fetching application guidelines, grant outlines, and application forms. The server returns structured data optimized for LLM processing with detailed metadata about files including names, sizes, and indices for downloads.
