Security note

MCP servers receive tool arguments from a conversation and may perform external actions. Review what a server can do before you enable it, and give it only the access it needs.

The registry verified the GitHub account matematicsolutions for this listing. That does not show the account is the product's maker.

SourceWeft's checks cover whether the listing is complete and the endpoint answered; they do not review the server's code or what its tools do.

Overview

AI-generated overview

MCP server that searches Romanian legislation on the Ministry of Justice Portal Legislativ and returns metadata, full text and verifiable citations.

What you can do: Search Romanian acts by title, free text, year or number, returning metadata only
Fetch an act's metadata by number and year, with act type to disambiguate
Retrieve the full text of an act as the API provides it
Report which legal families the connector covers, when they were captured, and what it does not cover, with fallbacks
Attach a citation contract to every response: canonical legislatie.just.ro URL, human-readable citation and source URL
When to use it: Useful when an assistant needs to look up Romanian laws, decrees or government decisions and cite them with a checkable source, for example in legal research, compliance checks or drafting that depends on Romanian legislation.
Requirements: Runs locally over stdio, typically via uvx or a Python install (python -m ro_eli_mcp). Needs Python and network access to the Portal Legislativ SOAP endpoint. No API key or registration; a token is obtained automatically. Optional environment variables set the endpoint, cache directory and audit directory.

Before you install

Read-only against a public government database, but every tool call is appended to a local audit log file. Results are limited to 10 per page and content is in Romanian. On Windows 11 with Smart App Control, unsigned launchers such as uvx.exe and pip.exe are blocked; the README advises not to disable that protection.

Installation

In SourceWeft

Open Ro Eli Mcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
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

ro-eli-mcp

An MCP server for the Romanian Portal Legislativ (legislatie.just.ro), the Ministry of Justice legislative database, through its public SOAP API. It searches Romanian legislation and returns 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 and SK. Same citation contract, Portal Legislativ source. This connector talks SOAP (a token obtained via GetToken, no registration, then Search).

Scope. This MVP searches acts by title, free text, year and number, and returns the full text the API provides inline. The same number can exist across act types (LEGE, DECRET, HOTARARE...), so a tip_act disambiguates. The API returns up to 10 results per page. Language: Romanian. Every response carries a dataset_note.

ELI is national, not data.europa.eu. Romania has no data.europa.eu ELI for this portal. eli_uri carries the canonical legislatie.just.ro document URL (the stable national identifier), which is also the source_url. Every response carries an eli_note.

The tools

Tool	What it does
`ro_search`	Search acts by title, text, year and/or number (metadata only).
`ro_get_act`	Metadata for an act by number + year (+ `tip_act` to disambiguate).
`ro_get_text`	Full text of an act by number + year (+ `tip_act`).
`ro_coverage`	Declare 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 legislatie.just.ro URL), human_readable_citation (e.g. LEGE nr. 190/2018), and source_url.

Install

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

Or from source:

Configure (Claude Code / any MCP client)

Windows 11 with Smart App Control

Smart App Control blocks unsigned executables, which covers uvx.exe, pip.exe and the ro-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:

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 ro_eli_mcp.

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

Environment:

RO_ELI_ENDPOINT - default https://legislatie.just.ro/apiws/FreeWebService.svc/SOAP
RO_ELI_CACHE_DIR - default ~/.matematic/cache/ro-eli
RO_ELI_AUDIT_DIR - default ~/.matematic/audit

No API key. The token is obtained via GetToken automatically (no registration).

Governance

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

See CONSTITUTION.md and DISCOVERY.md.
