Federal Register is published by Federal Register.

How often the publisher refreshes it is not declared, so treat the timing of any field as unknown.

Last verified . That is when these facts were last rebuilt from the ParcelOps source registry, not when Federal Register last refreshed the data itself.

API access

Your AI client reaches Federal Register through one ParcelOps MCP endpoint, so there is no separate key to hold for it and no per-source client to write. Reaching it takes no credentials of your own.

What this source cannot tell you

  • Where it stops geographically, because the covered area is not declared. An empty answer will not tell you whether the place is out of range or the record is simply missing.
  • Which years it spans, because the covered period is not declared.
  • How current a field is, because the refresh schedule is not declared.
  • Anything Federal Register does not publish. ParcelOps returns this source as it stands and never fills a blank field from a different one.
