Overview

AI-generated overview

Read-only MCP server that fetches Croatian legislation from the Narodne novine gazette with ELI identifiers and verifiable citations.

What you can do
  • List the documents of a gazette issue by year and issue number
  • Retrieve per-document metadata from JSON-LD by year, issue and document number
  • Fetch the full official HTML text of a document
  • Report coverage, capture dates and explicit gaps with fallbacks
  • Return ELI URI, human-readable citation and source URL with every response
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs to look up Croatian statutes and official gazette texts from 1990 onward and cite them with checkable ELI links, for example in legal research or compliance drafting.
Requirements
Runs locally over stdio, typically via uvx or pip install of the Python package; Python is needed. No API key. Optional environment variables set the base URL, cache directory and audit directory.
Before you install
Read-only against the public gazette, but every tool call appends a JSON line to a local audit log file. Documents are addressed by year, issue and document number only, so there is no keyword search. Content is in Croatian and coverage is limited to what the connector declares.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Hr Eli Mcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

README

hr-eli-mcp

An MCP server for the Croatian Narodne novine official gazette (narodne-novine.nn.hr). It fetches Croatian legislation with European ELI identifiers and verifiable citations.

Part of the MateMatic eu-legal-mcp production line - after PL, DE, AT, ES, FI, IE, NL, SE, FR, LU, DK and CZ. Same citation contract, Narodne novine source. Croatia is ELI-native on the European ELI ontology (data.europa.eu/eli), with JSON-LD metadata per document.

Scope. This MVP lists the documents of a gazette issue, returns per-document metadata from JSON-LD, and fetches the official HTML text. Documents are addressed by year + issue + document number; the gazette is path-based, not keyword search. Coverage 1990-present. Language: Croatian. Every response carries a dataset_note.

Licence. Narodne novine is the official public gazette of Croatia. This connector relays it read-only with attribution and a source_url.

The tools

ToolWhat it does
hr_list_issueList the documents of a gazette issue by year + issue (discovery).
hr_get_actMetadata for a document by year + issue + doc number.
hr_get_textFull official HTML text of a document.
hr_coverageDeclare what this connector covers, when each family was captured, and - explicitly - what it does NOT cover. Every gap carries a fallback.

Every response carries the contract: eli_uri (the European ELI URL, e.g. https://narodne-novine.nn.hr/eli/sluzbeni/2018/42/805), human_readable_citation (title + NN 42/2018), and source_url.

Install

Run it with no install step (once published to PyPI):

bash
uvx hr-eli-mcp

Or from source:

bash
cd hr-eli-mcppip install -e .

Configure (Claude Code / any MCP client)

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "hr-eli-mcp": { "command": "hr-eli-mcp" }  }}

Windows 11 with Smart App Control

Smart App Control blocks unsigned executables, which covers uvx.exe, pip.exe and the hr-eli-mcp.exe launcher that pip writes at install time. The python.exe and py.exe from the python.org installer are signed by the Python Software Foundation, so running the module through the interpreter works:

bash
python -m pip install hr-eli-mcppython -m hr_eli_mcp

pip.exe is blocked for the same reason, so install with python -m pip, not pip install. If python is not on PATH, use the Windows launcher: py -3 -m hr_eli_mcp.

json
{ "mcpServers": { "hr-eli-mcp": { "command": "python", "args": ["-m", "hr_eli_mcp"] } } }

Do not turn Smart App Control off to work around this - it cannot be re-enabled without reinstalling Windows.

Environment:

  • HR_ELI_BASE_URL - default https://narodne-novine.nn.hr
  • HR_ELI_CACHE_DIR - default ~/.matematic/cache/hr-eli
  • HR_ELI_AUDIT_DIR - default ~/.matematic/audit

No API key. Narodne novine open data is keyless.

Governance

  • Public data only - read-only against Narodne novine; no client data leaves the machine.
  • Audit log - every tool call appends one JSON line to ~/.matematic/audit/hr-eli-mcp.jsonl.
  • Vendor-neutral - talks only to narodne-novine.nn.hr; no LLM provider, no telemetry.
  • Verifiable citations - every response is independently checkable via source_url.

See CONSTITUTION.md and DISCOVERY.md.
