ris-mcp
👉 See jonashertner.github.io/ris-mcp for the project page and self-build instructions.
Proof-of-concept local MCP server for the Austrian Rechtsinformationssystem (RIS) — court decisions and consolidated federal law, queryable from MCP clients.
What
ris-mcp demonstrates how to ingest Austrian RIS data into a local,
FTS5-indexed SQLite database and expose it through MCP. The repository is
published for others to study, fork, and take forward. It is not a supported
service or product, and it has no delivery roadmap.
Install (users)
See the landing page.
No public pre-built corpus or hosted endpoint is provided. To exercise the
proof of concept, build a local database from the official RIS API with
ris-ingest --full.
Develop (contributors)
git clone https://github.com/jonashertner/ris-mcp.git
