Nothing to install, no account and no API key: point any MCP client at https://senado.sidneybissoli.com/mcp over Streamable HTTP. It runs on Cloudflare Workers. The npm package senado-br-mcp covers stdio. Data comes from the Senate's legislative and administrative open-data APIs and the e-Cidadania portal. All tool responses are in Portuguese — you can ask in English, but the payloads come back pt-BR.
One command — npx -y mcp-remote https://senado.sidneybissoli.com/mcp
