Moroccan Law MCP Server

The Adala alternative for the AI age.

Query 3,946 Moroccan laws with 61,351 provisions -- from Loi 09-08 (data protection) and Loi 05-20 (cybersecurity) to the Code de Commerce and the Constitution -- directly from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client.

If you're building legal tech, compliance tools, or doing Moroccan legal research, this is your verified reference database. Arabic + French bilingual.

Built by Ansvar Systems -- Stockholm, Sweden

Why This Exists

Moroccan legal research means navigating the Adala portal, the Bulletin Officiel, DGSSI publications, and OMPIC registers -- across 53 legal domains, in Arabic and French. Whether you're:

• 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 Moroccan law
• A researcher tracing legislative history across legal domains

...you shouldn't need dozens of browser tabs and manual cross-referencing. Ask Claude. Get the exact provision. With context.

This MCP server makes Moroccan law searchable, cross-referenceable, and AI-readable.

• Find all Moroccan laws that implement a specific EU regulation
• Check implementation completeness for EU directives
• Get provision-level EU law references

• OMPIC -- Intellectual property and commercial regulations

A daily automated check workflow (check-updates.yml) monitors source portals for new legislation and amendments.

Verified data only -- every citation is validated against official sources. Zero LLM-generated content.

Legal Advice

THIS TOOL IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE

Statute text is sourced from official Moroccan government publications. However:

• This is a research tool, not a substitute for professional legal counsel
• Court case coverage is limited -- do not rely solely on this for case law research
• Verify critical citations against primary sources for court filings
• EU cross-references are extracted from statute text, not EUR-Lex full text

Client Confidentiality

Queries go through the Claude API. For privileged or confidential matters, use on-premise deployment.
