README

gb-eli-mcp

An MCP server for legislation.gov.uk, The National Archives' official portal for United Kingdom legislation. It searches and retrieves Acts of Parliament, UK Statutory Instruments, and the equivalent instruments of the Scottish Parliament, Senedd Cymru/Welsh Parliament and Northern Ireland Assembly, with persistent identifiers and verifiable citations.

Part of the MateMatic eu-legal-mcp production line: the UK counterpart of the Polish sejm-eli-mcp and the German de-eli-mcp, built on the same architecture and citation contract against the UK's own source.

No native ELI. legislation.gov.uk does not publish a native /eli/ namespace (confirmed live: GET /eli/ukpga/2018/12 returns 404), even though its own persistent-identifier scheme predates and is closely related to ELI - the UK is widely credited with pioneering the URI-based legislation-identifier concept that ELI later formalised EU-wide. eli_uri therefore carries the UK's own stable id URI (https://www.legislation.gov.uk/id/{type}/{year}/{number}) instead of a fabricated ELI path - the same disclosure pattern used by this factory's nl-eli-mcp and se-eli-mcp. See CONSTITUTION.md Art. 4.

Licence. Content is published under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (confirmed live from the site's own /help page), which permits copying, publishing and adapting with attribution. This connector only relays that public content, with a source_url on every response.

The eight tools

Tool	What it does
`gb_search`	Search legislation by text, doc type and year (`/all/data.feed` or `/{doc_type}/data.feed`).
`gb_get_act`	Fetch act/instrument metadata by reference (e.g. `ukpga/2018/12`).
`gb_get_text`	Fetch the full text (`xml`, `html`, `akn`/Akoma Ntoso, `rdf`, `pdf`, `csv`).
`gb_recent_legislation`	Legislation published since a date, newest-first, optionally by doc type.
`gb_search_case_law`	Search UK judgments via The National Archives' Find Case Law Atom feed, by text, court, and date range.
`gb_get_case`	Fetch a judgment by neutral citation, Find Case Law URI/path, or opaque id - returns Akoma Ntoso XML, or a PDF link fallback.
`gb_search_govuk`	Search GOV.UK documents via the keyless Search API - employment/tax/property tribunal decisions, HMRC internal manuals, CMA cases - with server-side date filters and real totals.
`gb_get_govuk_content`	Fetch one GOV.UK document via the Content API - tribunal decisions return the judgment PDF link, HMRC manual sections return the full text.

GOV.UK coverage (added v0.3.0, feature-003)

One upstream, many institutions: gb_search_govuk filters by document_type. Live-verified totals (2026-07-07, from the Search API's own total/facet fields - probe: https://www.gov.uk/api/search.json?count=0&facet_content_store_document_type=1000):

`document_type`	Documents
`employment_tribunal_decision`	132,162
`hmrc_manual_section`	85,315
`residential_property_tribunal_decision`	17,088
`employment_appeal_tribunal_decision`	2,571
`cma_case`	2,565
`utaac_decision` (Upper Tribunal, AAC)	2,031
`tax_tribunal_decision`	1,414
`asylum_support_decision`	101

See SOURCES.md for the full per-source ledger, including what was scouted and deliberately rejected (ICO, FCA, IAC) and why.

Every response carries the contract: eli_uri (e.g. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/id/ukpga/2018/12), human_readable_citation (e.g. Data Protection Act 2018 c. 12), and source_url. Case-law responses carry the same-spirit contract (human_readable_citation, source_url, dataset_note) - see CONSTITUTION.md Art. 5.
