Overview

AI-generated overview

Local MCP server that lets an assistant fetch Maltese legislation from legislation.mt by ELI coordinate, with metadata, full text and verifiable citations.

What you can do
Retrieve document metadata for a Maltese law by ELI coordinate, taken from the page's JSON-LD (chapters, Constitution, subsidiary legislation, Acts, Legal Notices). Fetch the full text of a document by ELI coordinate, extracted from the official PDF. Report what the connector covers, when each family was captured, and explicitly what it does not cover, with a fallback for each gap. Every response carries an ELI URI, a human-readable citation and a source URL.
When to use it
Useful when you already know the ELI coordinate of a Maltese act, chapter, legal notice or the Constitution and want its metadata or consolidated text with a checkable citation. There is no free-text search, so it does not suit open-ended discovery of Maltese law.
Requirements
Runs locally as a Python package (mt-eli-mcp), started with uvx or installed with pip and run as a module. Needs network access to legislation.mt. No API key. Optional environment variables MT_ELI_BASE_URL, MT_ELI_CACHE_DIR and MT_ELI_AUDIT_DIR set the base URL, cache and audit directories. On Windows 11 with Smart App Control, run it through the Python interpreter rather than the blocked launchers.
Before you install
Read-only against legislation.mt, but every tool call appends a JSON line to an audit log under the audit directory, so local usage is recorded. Text is extracted from PDFs and may contain layout artefacts. The connector covers only part of the corpus and states its gaps explicitly. No client data is sent beyond requests to legislation.mt.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Mt 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.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

README

mt-eli-mcp

An MCP server for the Maltese legislation portal legislation.mt, the official source of consolidated Maltese law. It fetches document metadata and full text, with verifiable citations.

Part of the MateMatic eu-legal-mcp production line - after PL, DE, AT, ES, FI, IE, NL, SE, FR, LU, DK, CZ, HR, LT, SK and RO. Same citation contract, legislation.mt source. Malta is ELI-native; each page carries schema.org/ELI JSON-LD.

Scope. This MVP fetches a document's metadata (from JSON-LD) and full text by ELI coordinate (chapters, the Constitution, subsidiary legislation, Acts, Legal Notices). There is no free-text search; address documents by their ELI coordinate. Languages: English (eng) and Maltese (mlt). Every response carries a dataset_note.

Text comes from PDF. Malta publishes the consolidated text only as PDF. mt_get_text downloads the official PDF and extracts the text with pypdf; layout-dependent artefacts are possible. Every text response carries a text_note.

The tools

ToolWhat it does
mt_get_actMetadata for a document by ELI coordinate (JSON-LD).
mt_get_textFull text by ELI coordinate (extracted from the official PDF).
mt_coverageDeclare what this connector covers, when each family was captured, and - explicitly - what it does NOT cover. Every gap carries a fallback.

ELI coordinates (eli): cap/586 (Chapter), const (Constitution), sl/586.01 (subsidiary legislation), act/2018/20 (Act), ln/2018/123 (Legal Notice).

Every response carries the contract: eli_uri (the legislation.mt URL, e.g. https://legislation.mt/eli/cap/586/eng), human_readable_citation (e.g. Data Protection Act (Cap. 586)), and source_url.

Install

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

bash
uvx mt-eli-mcp

Or from source:

bash
cd mt-eli-mcppip install -e .

Configure (Claude Code / any MCP client)

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

Windows 11 with Smart App Control

Smart App Control blocks unsigned executables, which covers uvx.exe, pip.exe and the mt-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 mt-eli-mcppython -m mt_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 mt_eli_mcp.

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

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

Environment:

  • MT_ELI_BASE_URL - default https://legislation.mt
  • MT_ELI_CACHE_DIR - default ~/.matematic/cache/mt-eli
  • MT_ELI_AUDIT_DIR - default ~/.matematic/audit

No API key. legislation.mt is open data.

Governance

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

See CONSTITUTION.md and DISCOVERY.md.

Tests

bash
pip install -e ".[dev]"pytest tests/test_instructions_drift.py tests/test_parse.py -v   # offlinepytest tests/test_smoke.py -v                                    # hits live legislation.mt

Score

50% of the applicable checks met

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.

  • Reached in the last 30 days25 pts

    Keep the endpoint answering the MCP handshake; SourceWeft probes it every 30 days.

  • Auth declared10 pts

    Declare the credential headers in the registry entry, or keep the endpoint answering the probe so its auth can be classified.
