Greek MCP Server

Greek legislation via MCP — full-text search across statutes and provisions

Local serverstdioTypeScript

What is the Greek MCP server?

Greek legislation via MCP — full-text search across statutes and provisions. The greek mcp server wraps that behind the Model Context Protocol, so an assistant can use it through 14 defined tools rather than through you.

What it actually does

First request opens an OAuth signup flow (setup details: ansvar.eu/docs/quickstart). After signup, your client is bound to your account; tier (free / premium / team / company) determines fan-out, quota, and which downstream MCPs are reachable.

We build AI-accelerated compliance and legal research tools for the European market. This MCP server started as our internal reference tool for Greek law -- turns out everyone building for the Greek and SE European markets has the same research frustrations.

  • A lawyer validating citations in a brief or contract
  • A compliance officer checking if a statute is still in force
  • A legal tech developer building tools on Greek law
  • A researcher tracing legislative provisions across 21,119 statutes

Its toolset

Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:

  • search_legislation — FTS5 full-text search across 7,793 provisions with BM25 ranking
  • get_provision — Retrieve specific provision by law number + article reference
  • validate_citation — Validate citation against database -- zero-hallucination check
  • build_legal_stance — Aggregate citations from multiple statutes for a legal topic
  • format_citation — Format citations per Greek conventions (full/short/pinpoint)
  • check_currency — Check if statute is in force, amended, or repealed
  • list_sources — List all available statutes with metadata and data provenance
  • about — Server info, capabilities, dataset statistics, and coverage summary
  • get_eu_basis — Get EU directives/regulations that underpin a Greek statute
  • get_greek_implementations — Find Greek laws implementing a specific EU act
  • search_eu_implementations — Search EU documents with Greek implementation counts
  • get_provision_eu_basis — Get EU law references for a specific provision

Adding it to your client

@anthropic/mcp-inspector on npm is all you need. Most clients run it directly, so configuration is a few lines and a restart.

When to reach for it

This sits in the database access group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Greek's toolset — search_legislation, get_provision, validate_citation and 11 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by eu.ansvar; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.

Caveats

  • 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.
  • With 14 tools registered it takes up a noticeable share of the context window; turn it off in projects that never touch Greek.
  • MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the greek mcp server does with a few real requests.

Frequently asked questions

It connects Greek to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 14 tools (search_legislation, get_provision, validate_citation, and more) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Greek directly.
