Slovenian Law MCP Server

The Uradni list RS (Pravno-informacijski sistem) alternative for the AI age.

npm version MCP Registry License GitHub stars CI Daily Data Check Database Provisions

Query 40 Slovenian statutes -- from ZVOP-2 (Zakon o varstvu osebnih podatkov) and Kazenski zakonik to Obligacijski zakonik, Zakon o elektronskih komunikacijah, and more -- directly from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client.

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

Built by Ansvar Systems -- Stockholm, Sweden


Why This Exists

Slovenian legal research means navigating PISRS (Pravno-informacijski sistem Republike Slovenije) and the Uradni list RS, cross-referencing between Zakoni, Pravilniki, and Uredbe, and manually tracking EU transpositions. Whether you're:

  • A lawyer validating citations in a brief or contract
  • A compliance officer checking ZVOP-2 obligations or NIS2 requirements
  • A legal tech developer building tools on Slovenian law
  • A researcher tracing EU directives through to Slovenian implementation

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

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

  • "Ali je Kazenski zakonik (KZ-1) še v veljavi?"
  • "Poiščite določbe o 'varstvu osebnih podatkov' v slovenskem pravu"
  • "Katere EU direktive implementira ZVOP-2?"
  • "Kaj določa Obligacijski zakonik (OZ) glede pogodbene odgovornosti?"

Verified data only -- every citation is validated against official sources (pisrs.si). Zero LLM-generated content.

Why This Works

Verbatim Source Text (No LLM Processing):

  • All statute text is ingested from PISRS (Pravno-informacijski sistem RS) 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 zakon identifier + člen/odstavek
  • Cross-references help navigate without loading everything at once

Technical Architecture:

pisrs.si API → Parse → SQLite → FTS5 snippet() → MCP response

Traditional Research vs. This MCP

Traditional ApproachThis MCP Server
Search PISRS by zakon nameSearch by plain Slovenian: "varstvo osebnih podatkov"
Navigate multi-člen statutes manuallyGet the exact provision with context
Manual cross-referencing between zakonibuild_legal_stance aggregates across sources
"Je ta zakon še v veljavi?" → manual checkcheck_currency tool → answer in seconds
Find EU basis → dig through EUR-Lexget_eu_basis → linked EU directives instantly
Check PISRS for updatesDaily automated freshness checks
No API, no integrationMCP protocol → AI-native

Traditional: Search PISRS → Download PDF → Ctrl+F → Cross-reference with predlog zakona → Check EUR-Lex → Repeat

This MCP: "Kateri člen ZVOP-2 ureja privolitev in katera EU direktiva je osnova?" → Done.

Legal Advice

THIS TOOL IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE

Statute text is sourced from official PISRS publications. However:

  • This is a research tool, not a substitute for professional legal counsel
  • Coverage is currently limited to 40 core statutes -- verify whether your statute is included before relying on this for research
  • Court case coverage is not included in the current release -- do not rely on this for case law research
  • Verify critical citations against primary sources (pisrs.si) for court filings
  • EU cross-references are extracted from Slovenian statute text, not EUR-Lex full text
