Overview

AI-generated overview

A remote MCP server that gives an assistant verbatim US federal and state law text, resolved by address, topic, or citation, with official source provenance.

What you can do
Resolve an address or coordinates to the full jurisdiction stack (federal, state, county, place) and its code sources, including unincorporated areas that fall back to county code only. Search original law by topic, question, or exact citation, scoped by jurisdiction, source ids, or an address. Fetch full verbatim section text by id or citation, in batches of up to 10, with provenance, parent path, and neighboring sections. Check per-source coverage: what is hosted, section counts, currency or vintage, last verification, and stale flags.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs to quote or check the actual text of US law rather than a summary, for example to answer a question about a specific statute, confirm a citation, or find which codes apply to a given address.
Requirements
A remote streamable HTTP endpoint; no package, account, API key, or environment variable is declared. Network access to the provider's endpoint is needed.
Before you install
The server returns law text, not legal advice or interpretation. Coverage is partial: some jurisdictions and roughly half of US municipalities publish no code, and absence from the coverage list means the text is not hosted. Some sources may be flagged stale, so check currency before relying on a section.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open GroundRules - US Law Text in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/ai.agentlookups%2Fgroundrules/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

law_for_location

Find the law that applies at a location

Resolve an address or lat/lon to its full jurisdiction stack: federal, state, county, place, each with its code sources (name, publisher, official URL, current-through, whether we host its text). Unincorporated areas get the county code with no city code; about half of US municipalities publish no code online, and the answer says so and points at where the code lives if anywhere.

Parameterslatlonaddress

law_get_section

Get the full text of a law section

Fetch full verbatim text by id or citation, or pass references for a batch of up to 10. Each batch item has its own result/error. Includes provenance (official source URL, current-through or vintage label, retrieval time), parent path, and prev/next siblings. The text is reproduced exactly as published by the official source; nothing is added or removed except publisher editorial matter, which we never carry.

Parametersidcitationreferences

law_coverage

List the law sources we host

Per-source coverage: what we host, section counts, current-through or vintage, last_verified, and a stale flag for any source the recurring verify has proven behind its upstream. Machine-generated from the build manifest; never hand-typed. Absence from this list means we do not host that jurisdiction's text, not that no law exists there.

Takes no parameters.

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
