Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any Model Context Protocol client to our public Texas benefit guides, county health resource hubs and published articles. Six read-only tools, no API key.
Server overview
Endpoint
https://texashealthhelp.com/mcp
Transport
Streamable HTTP (MCP 2025-06-18)
Authentication
None — public server
Tools
6, all read-only and idempotent
This server is public: anyone with the URL can call these tools without signing in. Everything it returns is already published on this website. Nothing private — volunteer signups, contact form submissions and unpublished drafts — is reachable through it.
Connecting a client
Add the server to your MCP client config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex and ChatGPT connectors all accept a remote HTTP URL):
Every tool returns a human-readable summary in content[0].text plus a machine-readable object in structuredContent. The schemas below describe structuredContent.
Every result includes a page url on texashealthhelp.com — always surface it so people can verify details.
Failures return an MCP tool error with a plain-language message, never a silent empty object.
Eligibility rules and income limits change; the guides carry the year they were verified.
