What is the Ro MCP server?

If you already use Ro, the ro mcp server is the piece that lets your assistant work with it directly. MCP server for Romanian legislation (Portal Legislativ SOAP) with verifiable citations.

What the server does

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.

Available tools

The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:

  • 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)

Installation

The server ships on PyPI as ro-eli-mcp, 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.

Where it fits

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. Ro's toolset — ro_search, ro_get_act, ro_get_text — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by matematicsolutions; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

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

Worth knowing first

  • 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.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.

Frequently asked questions

It connects Ro to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 3 tools (ro_search, ro_get_act, ro_get_text) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Ro directly.
