    The EAC ships no MCP server, hosted or local. Searched on 2026-09-06: no reference to MCP,
    Model Context Protocol or an agent endpoint anywhere on www.eac.gov; the EAC GitHub
    organisation (github.com/eacgov) holds three repositories, all vote.gov Drupal/Terraform/React
    and none MCP-related; no npm, PyPI or registry package is published under any EAC name. The
    tools below are a CANDIDATE surface derived from the real REST operations, not a server that
    exists. No endpoint URL is asserted, because none was found.

    finding: 3 repositories — vote-gov-drupal, vote-gov-nvrf-app, vote-gov-tf. No MCP server.
feasibility:
  note: >-
    A server is unusually easy to build here and unusually safe to expose. The underlying API is
    anonymous, read-only by configuration (every write verb returns HTTP 405), free, and returns
    JSON:API — so no credential plumbing, no consequence classification and no write guardrails are
    needed. The whole surface is safe by construction.
