What is the Entscheidsuche MCP server?

Entscheidsuche MCP server exists for a simple reason — assistants are far more useful when they can act on Entscheidsuche directly instead of describing what you should do. Provides standardized access to Swiss court decisions via the entscheidsuche.ch API, enabling LLMs to search, retrieve, and analyze legal documents.

What you get

Note : this is a legacy project, that was created on 21.07.2025. As of 25.04.2026 there is now an official entscheidsuche MCP server at https://github.com/entscheidsuche/entscheidsuche-mcp. This legacy project is for archive read only.

What the assistant can call

Once Entscheidsuche is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:

  • Tools — The Tools tool exposed by this server
  • Resources — The Resources tool exposed by this server
  • Prompts — The Prompts tool exposed by this server
  • Scripts — The Scripts tool exposed by this server

Setting it up

The server ships on npm as @modelcontextprotocol/inspector, so your MCP client can launch it on demand — there is no separate build step. Add the server block to your client's configuration, restart it, and the tools register themselves.

Choosing this one

This sits in the developer tooling group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Entscheidsuche's toolset — Tools, Resources, Prompts and 1 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by self-tech-labs; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

This entry was verified against Entscheidsuche's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.

Before you rely on it

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the entscheidsuche mcp server does with a few real requests.
