Laissez votre agent IA rechercher des appels d'offres publics

1. Sign me in yourself. Try this first: you need me only for one approval click.
- If you can send HTTP requests: POST https://app.selltostate.com/api/v1/agent/signup with JSON {"client_name": "<your app name>"}. Show me verification_uri_complete from the reply as a link. I open it, sign up free with Google or email, and approve the code. Every "interval" seconds, POST token_endpoint with {"device_code": "<device_code>"} until the reply has access_token. Send access_token in the x-api-key header to the MCP server https://app.selltostate.com/api/mcp.
- If you cannot send HTTP requests: tell me to add the MCP server https://app.selltostate.com/api/mcp in this app. Its sign-in page also creates the free account. Claude: Customize > Connectors > Add custom connector. ChatGPT: chatgpt.com/plugins > + > Add custom MCP server, choose OAuth. Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http selltostate https://app.selltostate.com/api/mcp, then /mcp > Authenticate.
2. The tools are free to connect. A free account gets plan_search 3 times a day and search for 2 different searches a day: titles, buyers, status and dates. Amounts, winners and notice links need a plan. Call whoami to see my plan. Read the skill at https://www.selltostate.com/skills/selltostate-ai-agent-tender-search/SKILL.md.
3. Find open tenders for <what my company sells> in <countries>, show who won similar contracts in the last 12 months, and save the search so I can turn on its email alert.

# AI agents: Claude, ChatGPT and MCP (Sell to State)

## Access

1. MCP: the server https://app.selltostate.com/api/mcp (OAuth, or the x-api-key of the agent sign-in: POST https://app.selltostate.com/api/v1/agent/signup, the user approves one code). Call `whoami`. `active` false is a free account: `plan_search` and `search` only, 1-2 searches a day.
2. REST: https://app.selltostate.com/api/v1 with the header `x-api-key`. Read the key from `STS_API_KEY` and never print it.
3. No plan yet: the user picks a plan at https://app.selltostate.com/plans, or you run the agent signup in "Get access" of https://www.selltostate.com/skills/selltostate/SKILL.md. The user pays in the browser.

## Task

Find open tenders for <what my company sells> in <countries>, show who won similar contracts in the last 12 months, and save the search so I can turn on its email alert.

Ask the user for each value in <angle brackets> before the first call.

## Steps

1. Connect the MCP server https://app.selltostate.com/api/mcp. No key yet: POST https://app.selltostate.com/api/v1/agent/signup, give the user verification_uri_complete (one approval click, free account), then poll token_endpoint for the x-api-key. An app without HTTP requests adds the server with OAuth.
2. Call `whoami`. If `active` is false, the account is free: `plan_search` and `search` work for 1-2 searches a day. For more, give the user the plans link.
3. Open tenders: `search` with `scope=tenders`, `q`, `country`, `accepts_bids=true`. Awards: `search_awards` with `country` and `q`.
4. Who won: `search` with `scope=suppliers`, then `get_supplier_detail`. Buyers: `search` with `scope=buyers`, then `get_buyer`.
5. Save the search with `save_search`. The user turns on its email alert at https://app.selltostate.com/alerts.

## Rules

- Give `source_url` (the official notice) for each tender and award. The user reads the documents and bids on the official portal.
- Amounts are in the source currency. Do not add amounts in different currencies.
- The data shows awards, not bids. Do not say that a company lost a tender.
- On a 402, show the message and the link to the user, then stop. On a 429, wait `Retry-After` seconds.
- Credit the data: "Data: Sell to State (selltostate.com)".
