Grok MCP Compras.gov.br compras_arp_saldo_item

How to: Grok MCP Compras.gov.br compras_arp_saldo_item

client:Grok transport:streamable-http tool:compras_arp_saldo_item

Add MCP Compras.gov.br to Grok

  1. 01

    Open .mcp.json (in your project root) and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-compras": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp-compras.up.railway.app/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Grok.

  2. 03

    Ask for something compras_arp_saldo_item does. Grok lists the server's tools on connect and calls compras_arp_saldo_item itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that MCP Compras.gov.br's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Grok Build reads Claude Code's .mcp.json and Claude Desktop's config unchanged, so a server you have already set up there needs nothing new. The Grok web app and X integration do not take custom servers. Grok docs

Set these first

MCP Compras.gov.br will not start until these are set, so compras_arp_saldo_item never becomes available.

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 24 September 2026. It is what the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.

Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
