Highergov for AI agents

HigherGov is a market intelligence platform for U.S. federal, state, and local government contracts and grants. Teams use it to answer recurring questions about performance without building custom reporting. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Highergov connects.

Users add their Highergov api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

The same Highergov connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

07 · FAQ

Highergov and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Highergov with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Highergov to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Highergov actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Highergov?

Users add their Highergov api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

Q03

Which Highergov actions can my agent take?

16 in total: 16 read, 0 write and 0 destructive. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I make my agent read-only in Highergov?

Yes. Allow read actions and deny writes in the Highergov policy. Your agent can still look things up, and any write it attempts is blocked and logged.

Q05

Can my own backend call Highergov too?

Yes. The same Highergov connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
