Three connectors for Claude
One per job, each with only the tools that job needs and three starter prompts. Answers come back as a Your Roster card with the rule attached.
Federal EmployeesContracting OfficersGovernment ContractorsThe problem
People who work with government ask the same questions every week. Can I accept this lunch? Can I post this? What does this solicitation actually require? Which contracts in our lane end next year?
The answers exist, but they are spread across the Code of Federal Regulations, the FAR, agency supplements and USAspending. Finding the right one means reading rules written for lawyers, or waiting for an ethics office or a consultant to reply. The general-purpose AI assistants people now reach for can sound certain while citing nothing, which is a real risk when the question is whether you are about to break a federal rule.
So people guess, or they wait. Neither works for a contracting officer with a deadline, an employee who wants to stay on the right side of the Hatch Act, or a small business deciding whether to bid.
Our approach
We didn’t build another chatbot. Each tool asks a few plain questions, then applies the regulation as written and shows you the rule it used. A person always makes the final call: the tool does the first read, you bring the judgment. Four principles shaped every one.
Rules, not guesses
The ethics and compliance tools run the regulations as written, so the same facts always give the same answer.
Cites its sources
Every answer names the rule or record it rests on, from 5 CFR 2635 to USAspending, so you can check it yourself.
Works where you do
On the site, in Claude, ChatGPT and Copilot Studio, and pasted into GenAI.mil, USAi or your agency’s own assistant.
Nothing kept unless you save it
What you ask isn’t stored. A call from your AI logs the tool and how it ended, never what you asked.
Eight tools, one job each
Ethics, winning contracts, buying and writing. Each opens with a worked example, so you see what it does before you type anything.
Gift Check
Can I accept this? Can I offer this?
Check a lunch, ticket, conference pass or gift against the federal gift rules (5 CFR 2635): a yes, no or “only if”, with the rule behind it.
For Federal Employees, Contracting Officers, Government Contractors
Open the ToolHow It Works
- Say whether you work in government or are offering the gift.
- Answer up to six questions about the gift and the giver.
- Get a yes, a no or an “only if”, with the rule it rests on and a link to share.
In the AI you already use
Most people won’t open another website for a quick question, so the tools go to them. No account is needed, and every answer says it came from Your Roster.
Paste-in for government AI
GenAI.mil, USAi and most agency assistants can’t add outside tools. Copy a tool’s instructions in, and your assistant applies the same rules, with no connection to us.
Copy Them From Any ToolFor developers
An MCP server, a REST API and an OpenAPI spec, with limits sized for real use and public data from USAspending cached for a day.

Free, with no

These questions shouldn’t sit behind a subscription, a sign-up or a consultant’s hourly rate. Every tool is free, and none needs an account, here or in your AI. An account only comes in when you want us to keep something for you.
- No account to get an answer

- A person to ask when a rule says it depends
What changes for you
A question that used to mean a search through the CFR, or a wait for a reply, now gets a first answer in the time it takes to ask it, with the rule attached so you can check it or forward it to the person who signs off. Here are six real questions, answered by the tools themselves.
Gift Check1/6
“Can I accept a $40 dinner from a contractor?”
NoYou can’t accept it. At $40, it is over the $20 limit for a single gift.

For each job
The same idea, with what it changes for the people the tools were built for.
Federal employees
Check a gift, a social post or a run for office before you act, under the rule that applies to you, and bring the answer to your ethics official instead of a blank question.
Federal Employees’ ToolsContracting officers
Draft a FAR Part 10 market research report, shred your own solicitation for buried requirements, and see which rule changes reach your buys, with the sources on the page.
Contracting Officers’ ToolsGovernment contractors
Turn an RFP into a compliance matrix, check your draft against it, and find the contracts in your NAICS code that end soon, with the incumbent and the agency.
GovCon ToolsWhen you want more, a free account
Sign up with your email and a six-digit code. No password, and you land straight on your Home.
My Rules
Your agency’s supplemental ethics rules, a stricter gift limit or your company’s policy, applied to every ethics answer, here and in your AI. Rules only ever make an answer stricter.
Saved boards and watches
Keep a compliance matrix and check your proposal against it later. Save a Recompete Radar search and it re-runs daily, emailing you when something changes. All of it lives in My Tools.
Ask an Expert
When a rule says it depends, send your question, with what the tool said, to Your Roster’s verified experts. From Claude too: finish in your browser with an email and a code.
