county-mcp

Why This Exists

Kenya's 2010 Constitution devolved substantial budget and service delivery to 47 counties, but county-level demographics, budgets, ward structures and contacts are published inconsistently across 47 different sites. Devolution only works if citizens can actually see what their county controls.

Data & Disclaimers

County figures are reference data compiled from public sources. Budgets change each fiscal year — verify against the Controller of Budget (cob.go.ke) and the county's own publications.

Every tool response carries a source field. Responses labelled DEMO are illustrative reference data, not a live feed — verify against the authority named in the response before acting on it.

Part of the East Africa Coordination Stack

This MCP server is part of the Kenya coordination infrastructure. It connects to africa-coord-bus — the coordination event bus that routes signals between domains automatically.

When this server detects a threshold condition, the bus notifies:

• bima-mcp — parametric insurance evaluation
• kilimo-mcp — agricultural advisory
• afya-mcp — health surveillance activation
• county-mcp — county office alert

pip install africa-coord-bus

Model-agnostic by design: closed APIs, open-weight models, and small distilled models are all first-class citizens.
