What this MCP does

Provides searchable, structured access to major Indian legal Acts, sections, chapters, metadata, and full text.

indian_legal_mcp_get_act_info
Get metadata about one specific Act: its full name, year enacted, and whether it is still current law or has been repealed and replaced by something newer.
Input schema
{'type': 'object', 'required': ['act_code'], 'properties': {'act_code': {'type': 'string', 'description': 'short code, one of BNS, BNSS, BSA, IPC, CRPC, IEA, COI, CPC, MVA, NIA.'}}}
indian_legal_mcp_get_chapter
Get every section within one chapter of an Act, with full text. Only meaningful for BNS, BNSS, BSA, IPC, CRPC, IEA. For CPC, MVA, and COI, which lack chapter grouping in this dataset, it returns a clear message instead of empty data.
Input schema
{'type': 'object', 'required': ['act_code', 'chapter_number'], 'properties': {'act_code': {'type': 'string', 'description': "e.g. 'BNS'."}, 'chapter_number': {'type': 'string', 'description': "e.g. '1', '16'."}}}
indian_legal_mcp_get_full_act
Get an entire Act, in full, returned in paginated chunks (50 sections/page). Use only when genuinely needing the whole Act. If a page beyond the total pages is requested, it gracefully returns empty sections with a note.
Input schema
{'type': 'object', 'required': ['act_code'], 'properties': {'page': {'type': 'integer', 'default': 1, 'description': 'The page number to fetch. Default is 1.'}, 'act_code': {'type': 'string', 'description': "e.g. 'BNS'."}}}
indian_legal_mcp_get_section
[AI TOOL ORCHESTRATION INSTRUCTION: Only use this tool AFTER you have found the exact section number via search_keyword, or if the user explicitly provided it.] Get the exact text of ONE section (or Constitution article) by its number. Use this when someone asks about a specific, known section number, e.g. 'what does BNS Section 103 say' or 'show me IPC 302'. If the Act is repealed (IPC, CRPC, or IEA), the result includes a note that it no longer applies to new cases and names what replaced it.
Input schema
{'type': 'object', 'required': ['act_code', 'section_number'], 'properties': {'act_code': {'type': 'string', 'description': "e.g. 'BNS', 'IPC', 'COI'."}, 'section_number': {'type': 'string', 'description': "e.g. '103', '25A', '0' (Preamble), '394A'. Always given as a string."}}}
indian_legal_mcp_get_section_range
Get all sections between a start and end number (inclusive) with full text. Numeric comparison handles letter-suffixed numbers (like '108A'). If start and end are provided in reverse order, it silently corrects them and includes a note in the response.
Input schema
{'type': 'object', 'required': ['act_code', 'start_section', 'end_section'], 'properties': {'act_code': {'type': 'string', 'description': "e.g. 'BNS'."}, 'end_section': {'type': 'string', 'description': "e.g. '110'."}, 'start_section': {'type': 'string', 'description': "e.g. '100'."}}}
indian_legal_mcp_list_acts
List all available Acts in the database, with metadata and descriptions. Use this to see which legal codes are supported or find short codes.
Input schema
{'type': 'object', 'properties': {}}
indian_legal_mcp_list_sections
List every section NUMBER and TITLE in one Act, without the full body text. Use this to browse what exists in an Act before deciding which specific section or chapter to fetch in full -- much shorter than get_full_act.
Input schema
{'type': 'object', 'required': ['act_code'], 'properties': {'act_code': {'type': 'string', 'description': "e.g. 'BNS', 'MVA'."}}}
indian_legal_mcp_search_keyword
[AI TOOL ORCHESTRATION INSTRUCTION: ALWAYS use this tool FIRST when the specific section number is unknown. Never guess section numbers.] Search section titles and text. Exact title matches are ranked #1, partial title matches are #2, and body text matches are #3 (via BM25). This is exact/near-exact word matching, NOT meaning-based search.
Input schema
{'type': 'object', 'required': ['query'], 'properties': {'query': {'type': 'string', 'description': "search term(s), e.g. 'punishment for murder'."}, 'act_code': {'type': 'string', 'description': 'optional -- restrict search to one Act.'}}}
