Slovak Law MCP Server

▶ Try this MCP instantly via Ansvar Gateway

50 free queries/day · no card required · OAuth signup at ansvar.eu/gateway

One endpoint, one OAuth signup, access from any MCP-compatible client.

Connect

Claude Code (one line):

claude mcp add ansvar --transport http https://gateway.ansvar.eu/mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor — add to claude_desktop_config.json (or mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ansvar": {
      "type": "url",
      "url": "https://gateway.ansvar.eu/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Claude.ai — Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → paste https://gateway.ansvar.eu/mcp

First request opens an OAuth flow at ansvar.eu/gateway. After signup, your client is bound to your account; tier (free / premium / team / company) determines fan-out, quota, and which downstream MCPs are reachable.

Self-host this MCP

You can also clone this repo and build the corpus yourself. The schema, fetcher, and tool implementations all live here. What is not in the repo is the pre-built database — TDM and standards-licensing constraints on the upstream sources mean we host the corpus on Ansvar infrastructure rather than redistribute it as a public artifact.

Build your own: run this repo's ingestion script (entry-point varies per repo — typically scripts/ingest.sh, npm run ingest, or make ingest; check the repo root).

The SLOV-LEX alternative for the AI age.

Query 25,609 Slovak statutes — from zákon č. 18/2018 Z.z. (ochrana osobných údajov) and the Trestný zákon to the Občiansky zákonník, zákon o kybernetickej bezpečnosti, and more — directly from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client.

If you're building legal tech, compliance tools, or doing Slovak legal research, this is your verified reference database.

Built by Ansvar Systems -- Stockholm, Sweden

Why This Exists

Slovak legal research is scattered across SLOV-LEX, zbierka.sk, EUR-Lex, and government ministerial portals. Whether you're:

• A lawyer validating citations in a brief or zmluva
• A compliance officer checking obligations under zákon č. 18/2018 Z.z. or zákon č. 69/2018 Z.z.
• A legal tech developer building tools on Slovak law
• A researcher tracing legislative history from dôvodová správa to zákon

...you shouldn't need a dozen browser tabs and manual PDF cross-referencing. Ask Claude. Get the exact provision. With context.

This MCP server makes Slovak law searchable, cross-referenceable, and AI-readable.

Verified data only — every citation is validated against official sources (SLOV-LEX / zbierka.sk). Zero LLM-generated content.

Why This Works

Verbatim Source Text (No LLM Processing):

• All statute text is ingested from SLOV-LEX (slov-lex.sk) official sources
• Provisions are returned unchanged from SQLite FTS5 database rows
• Zero LLM summarization or paraphrasing — the database contains regulation text, not AI interpretations

Smart Context Management:

• Search returns ranked provisions with BM25 scoring (safe for context)
• Provision retrieval gives exact text by zákon number + paragraph
• Cross-references help navigate without loading everything at once

Technical Architecture:

SLOV-LEX API → Parse → SQLite → FTS5 snippet() → MCP response

Traditional Research vs. This MCP

Traditional Approach	This MCP Server
Search SLOV-LEX by číslo zákona	Search by plain Slovak: "ochrana osobných údajov súhlas"
Navigate multi-chapter statutes manually	Get the exact provision with context
Manual cross-referencing between zákony	build_legal_stance aggregates across sources
"Je tento zákon platný?" → check manually	check_currency tool → answer in seconds
Find EU basis → dig through EUR-Lex	get_eu_basis → linked EU directives instantly
No API, no integration	MCP protocol → AI-native

Traditional: Search SLOV-LEX → Download PDF → Ctrl+F → Cross-reference with EUR-Lex → Check Úrad na ochranu osobných údajov → Repeat

This MCP: "Aký je európsky základ § 13 zákona č. 18/2018 Z.z. o ochrane osobných údajov?" → Done.

EU Law Integration

Slovakia is an EU member state (since 2004) and eurozone member (since 2009). Slovak legislation in data protection, cybersecurity, financial services, and e-commerce is built on EU directives and regulations. The EU bridge tools give you full bi-directional lookup.

Eurozone	Yes — since 1 January 2009
EU References	Cross-references linking Slovak statutes to EU law
Directives transposed	GDPR, NIS2, DORA, AI Act, eIDAS, PSD2, AML directives, and more
EUR-Lex Integration	Automated metadata fetching
Úrad supervision	Data protection and cybersecurity regulatory frameworks fully covered

Key Slovak EU Implementations

• Zákon č. 18/2018 Z.z. — GDPR national implementation (ochrana osobných údajov)
• Zákon č. 69/2018 Z.z. — Zákon o kybernetickej bezpečnosti (NIS Directive transposition)
• Zákon č. 272/2016 Z.z. — Zákon o dôveryhodných službách (eIDAS transposition)
• Zákon č. 492/2009 Z.z. — Zákon o platobných službách (PSD2 transposition)

Important Disclaimers

Legal Advice

THIS TOOL IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE

Statute text is sourced from official SLOV-LEX publications. However:

• This is a research tool, not a substitute for professional legal counsel
• Court case coverage is not included in the free tier — do not rely solely on this for judikatúra research
• Verify critical citations against primary sources (SLOV-LEX, Zbierka zákonov) for court filings
• EU cross-references are extracted from statute text and EUR-Lex metadata, not a complete implementation mapping

Before using professionally, read: DISCLAIMER.md | PRIVACY.md

Client Confidentiality

Queries go through the Claude API. For privileged or confidential matters, use on-premise deployment. See PRIVACY.md for guidance consistent with Slovenská advokátska komora (Slovak Bar Association) professional conduct standards.
