An MCP server that indexes the FedRAMP/docs repository, including FRMR JSON datasets and related markdown guidance, so MCP clients can query documents, requirements, control mappings, and change history. It can also clone/update a cached copy of the repository and search the indexed content with structured tools.
From the registry: Query FedRAMP 20x KSIs, NIST controls, and compliance docs via 20 MCP tools.
