One MCP server for Polish legal data - aggregates the matematicsolutions connector fleet (SAOS, NSA, ISAP, KRS, EUREKA, KIO, UODO + EU extras) behind 4 unified tools
Project description
prawo-pl-mcp
One MCP server for Polish legal data.
Ten independent connectors - case law, legislation, the company register, tax rulings, public procurement, data-protection decisions, plus EU extras - behind four tools. Each connector stays a separate package with its own repository; this server spawns them on demand and translates between their conventions.
"Prawo" is Polish for "law"; the name follows yargi-mcp's move of naming a country server in its own language.
Why an aggregator
The connectors cover Polish legal data well, but as separate MCP servers, one per database - ten installs and ten config entries before the first question. yargi-mcp showed the fix for Turkish law: 16 institutions, one server. prawo-pl-mcp does the same for Poland:
- Four tools instead of 42.
pl_list_sources,pl_search,pl_get_document,pl_call- fewer tool schemas means less context spent before the LLM starts working. - One convention. The connectors grew organically:
dateFromhere,date_fromthere, pages counted from 0 or from 1 depending on the repo. Herepageis always 1-based and dates are alwaysdate_from/date_to(YYYY-MM-DD); the translation happens inside. - Nothing preinstalled. Connectors run as subprocesses via
npx -y/uvx, downloaded on the first call to a given source and kept alive afterwards. A source that cannot start reports a readable error while the rest keep working. - Paginated documents. Full judgment and act texts are chunked at ~5000 characters per page (yargi-mcp's pattern), so a 200-page ruling does not flood the context window.
Coverage
| Source id | What | Institution / database | Connector | Runtime |
|---|---|---|---|---|
saos |
Case law: common courts, Supreme Court, Constitutional Tribunal + citator | SAOS | mcp-saos | npx |
nsa |
Case law: administrative courts (NSA + 16 WSA) | CBOSA | mcp-nsa | npx |
isap |
Legislation: Dziennik Ustaw + Monitor Polski, 96k+ acts | Sejm ELI API | mcp-isap | npx |
krs |
Company register: extracts, history, board composition | KRS API (Ministry of Justice) | mcp-krs | npx |
eureka |
Tax rulings: 550k+ individual interpretations | EUREKA (Ministry of Finance) | mcp-eureka | npx |
kio |
Public procurement: National Appeal Chamber rulings | orzeczenia.uzp.gov.pl | kio-orzeczenia-mcp | uvx |
uodo |
GDPR enforcement: Polish DPA decisions, fines, stats | orzeczenia.uodo.gov.pl | uodo-orzeczenia-mcp | uvx |
eu-sparql |
EU law: EUR-Lex by CELEX, CJEU by ECLI, GDPRhub | Cellar SPARQL | mcp-eu-sparql | npx |
eu-compliance |
14 EU regulations offline (GDPR, AI Act, DORA, NIS2...) | Local SQLite corpus | mcp-eu-compliance | npx |
legalize |
Law-as-git: 32 jurisdictions, versioned by commit | legalize-dev | legalize-mcp | uvx |
Polish sources are tagged group: pl, EU extras group: eu - filter with
pl_list_sources(group="pl").
Tools
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
pl_list_sources |
Catalog of sources (no subprocess spawned). With source_id: live tool schemas of one connector. |
pl_search |
Search any source with normalized parameters; source-specific filters via extra. |
pl_get_document |
Full document by identifier (judgment id, ELI, KRS number, signature...), paginated. |
pl_call |
Any native tool of any connector: citator, DPA statistics, board composition, regulation comparison... |
The typical flow an LLM follows (spelled out in the server's instructions):
pl_list_sources → pl_search → pl_get_document, with pl_call for the
specialized tools each connector brings.
Install
Requires Python ≥ 3.11 plus the runtimes of the sources you use: Node.js ≥ 18
for npx sources, uv for uvx sources. If a
runtime is missing, its sources report source_unavailable and the rest work.

Remote (Streamable HTTP)
uvicorn prawo_pl_mcp.asgi:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
Open by default (public, read-only data). Set PRAWO_PL_MCP_API_KEY to require
X-API-Key: <key> or Authorization: Bearer <key> on every request.
Configuration
| Env | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
PRAWO_PL_MCP_CMD_<ID> |
- | Override the spawn command for a source, e.g. PRAWO_PL_MCP_CMD_SAOS="node C:/dev/mcp-saos/dist/index.js" for a local checkout. <ID> = source id, uppercase, - → _. |
PRAWO_PL_MCP_INIT_TIMEOUT |
180 |
Seconds allowed for a connector's first start (includes package download). |
PRAWO_PL_MCP_TIMEOUT |
90 |
Seconds per tool call after startup. |
PRAWO_PL_MCP_AUDIT_DIR |
~/.matematic/audit |
Where the JSONL audit log goes. |
PRAWO_PL_MCP_API_KEY |
- | ASGI mode only: require this API key (dual-channel). |
Architecture
The aggregator is a thin proxy (ADR 0001). Connectors are not imported, vendored or forked; the aggregator speaks MCP to them over stdio the same way any client would. The whole layer is a source registry (one dataclass entry per connector), a lazy subprocess pool, a parameter translator and a paginator. Adding a source means adding a registry entry.
LLM client ──MCP──▶ prawo-pl-mcp ──MCP/stdio──▶ npx @matematicsolutions/mcp-saos
│ ──MCP/stdio──▶ uvx kio-orzeczenia-mcp
│ ──MCP/stdio──▶ ... (spawned on first use)
└─ registry + param mapping + 5000-char pagination
Every call lands in a JSONL audit log (timestamp, tool, source, parameter hash, latency - never document content).
Known issues
The kio connector (public procurement) currently returns zero results for
every query - the upstream site changed and its scraper needs a fix. Tracked in
kio-orzeczenia-mcp;
the aggregator passes through whatever that connector returns.
Development
git clone https://github.com/matematicsolutions/prawo-pl-mcp && cd prawo-pl-mcp
uv sync --extra dev
uv run pytest # offline tests: registry, dispatch mapping, pagination, drift
uv run prawo-pl-mcp # stdio server
License
Apache-2.0. Individual connectors carry their own licenses (MIT or Apache-2.0), their own rate limits and their own terms toward upstream databases - the aggregator adds no caching and no transformation beyond pagination, so each connector's constraints apply unchanged.
