fr-eli-mcp

Instalacja (jedna komenda)

Opublikowany na PyPI + MCP Registry (io.github.matematicsolutions/fr-eli-mcp). Uruchomienie bez klonowania:

uvx fr-eli-mcp

Wymaga kluczy PISTE w env: PISTE_CLIENT_ID, PISTE_CLIENT_SECRET (Legifrance/PISTE).

Konfiguracja klienta MCP (stdio):

{ "mcpServers": { "fr-eli-mcp": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["fr-eli-mcp"] } } }

Windows 11 ze Smart App Control

Smart App Control blokuje niepodpisane pliki wykonywalne, a uvx.exe, pip.exe i generowany przy instalacji fr-eli-mcp.exe podpisane nie sa. python.exe z python.org jest podpisany przez Python Software Foundation, wiec uruchomienie przez modul omija blokade:

python -m pip install fr-eli-mcp
python -m fr_eli_mcp
{ "mcpServers": { "fr-eli-mcp": { "command": "python", "args": ["-m", "fr_eli_mcp"] } } }

Nie wylaczaj Smart App Control, zeby to obejsc - wylaczenia nie da sie cofnac bez ponownej instalacji systemu.

(Budowanie ze źródeł — niżej.)

An MCP server for the French Legifrance API via PISTE. It searches French legislation (LODA laws & decrees, codes), case law from three jurisdictions - Cour de cassation / cours d'appel (JURI), the Conseil constitutionnel (CONSTIT - QPC/DC decisions) and the administrative courts (CETAT - Conseil d'Etat, cours administratives d'appel, tribunaux administratifs) - plus CNIL deliberations (CNIL), collective labour agreements (KALI) and company-level agreements (ACCO), and returns verbatim text with verifiable citations. Part of the eu-legal-mcp line of national legal connectors by MateMatic.

Every response carries the citation contract: a stable eli_uri, a human_readable_citation (French convention) and a resolvable source_url.

Read-only. The server only queries Legifrance and writes a local audit log. It never modifies official text and never sends anything beyond your query / document id.

Tools

ToolWhat it does
fr_search(query, fond, page_size)Keyword search a fond: LODA (laws & decrees), CODE (codes), JURI (Cour de cassation case law), CONSTIT (Conseil constitutionnel decisions), CETAT (administrative case law: Conseil d'Etat, CAA, TA), CNIL (CNIL deliberations), KALI (collective labour agreements), ACCO (company-level agreements). Returns hits with the citation contract; CODE hits expose matched article_ids.
fr_get_act(text_id, date)Consult a LODA law/decree by LEGITEXT... id. Returns metadata + a table of contents (articles).
fr_get_text(article_id)Verbatim text of a single article by LEGIARTI... id (legislation/codes) or KALIARTI... id (collective agreements).
fr_get_decision(decision_id)A court decision by JURITEXT..., CONSTEXT... or CETATEXT... id, with its native ecli (when populated), court, formation, solution and text.
fr_get_deliberation(deliberation_id)A CNIL deliberation by CNILTEXT... id (sanctions, authorizations, opinions) with its verbatim text and the citation CNIL, deliberation n° ... du ....
fr_get_convention(convention_id)A collective labour agreement text by KALITEXT... id. Returns metadata + a table of contents whose KALIARTI... ids resolve via fr_get_text.
fr_get_company_agreement(agreement_id)A company-level agreement by ACCOTEXT... id - metadata only (company, SIRET, IDCC, sector, themes, unions, dates). Legifrance ships the full ACCO text only as a .docx attachment, so the tool cites source_url instead of re-serving it.

Jurisdictions covered

FondCourt(s)Id prefixNative ECLI
JURICour de cassation, cours d'appelJURITEXT...Yes
CONSTITConseil constitutionnel (QPC + DC decisions, ~7 400+ live on PISTE)CONSTEXT...Yes (ECLI:FR:CC:...)
CETATConseil d'Etat, cours administratives d'appel (CAA), tribunaux administratifs (TA)CETATEXT...Yes for Conseil d'Etat; frequently null for CAA/TA (uneven ECLI coverage upstream - never fabricated)

Conseil constitutionnel decisions get the French citation convention: Cons. const., decision n° 2025-1173 QPC du 7 novembre 2025 - [case name]. JURI/CETAT decisions cite the Legifrance titre (court, formation, date, dossier number) verbatim.

Judilibre (api.piste.gouv.fr/cassation/judilibre) was evaluated as an alternative Cour de cassation source but requires its own PISTE API subscription beyond the Legifrance one already held by this connector. Re-verified 2026-07-08: a valid Legifrance token (granted scope openid resource.READ) gets 403 on the sandbox host for every endpoint and auth shape tried (Bearer, KeyId, no-auth -> 400), and the sandbox application is rejected outright by the production OAuth endpoint (invalid_client). Subscribing the Judilibre API to the PISTE application is a dashboard action outside this connector. Not integrated - JURI already covers Cour de cassation case law through the existing Legifrance subscription.

A note on ELI vs ECLI

France has an official ELI scheme, but the PISTE lf-engine-app consult API returns the native ELI field null for the legislation we tested. Following this line's rule - say what you do not have, never fabricate an ELI - eli_uri carries the stable, resolvable Legifrance resource URL (CID-keyed), not a /eli/... string parsed from prose. Each response repeats this in eli_note.

Case law is different: the API returns a native, authoritative ECLI for Cour de cassation (e.g. ECLI:FR:CCASS:2025:C100399), Conseil constitutionnel (e.g. ECLI:FR:CC:2025:2025.1173.QPC) and Conseil d'Etat (e.g. ECLI:FR:CECHR:2026:506507.20260529), surfaced verbatim in fr_get_decision. CAA/TA decisions under CETAT frequently have no ECLI - the field is null, never fabricated.

Configuration

Legifrance requires OAuth2 application credentials from a free PISTE account (piste.gouv.frApplications → subscribe to the Legifrance API → OAuth Credentials). Credentials are read from the environment only:

VariableMeaning
FR_ELI_OAUTH_URLOAuth token endpoint (sandbox default shown in .mcp.json.example).
FR_ELI_BASE_URLLegifrance lf-engine-app base.
FR_ELI_CLIENT_IDYour PISTE application client id (required).
FR_ELI_CLIENT_SECRETYour PISTE application client secret (required).
FR_ELI_CACHE_DIRDisk cache dir (default ~/.matematic/cache/fr-eli).
FR_ELI_AUDIT_DIRAudit log dir (default ~/.matematic/audit).

Copy .mcp.json.example to .mcp.json (gitignored) and fill in your credentials, or set the variables in your host environment. The OAuth token is cached in memory and refreshed automatically.

Install

py -3.13 -m venv .venv
.\.venv\Scripts\python.exe -m pip install -e ".[dev]"   # Windows
# or: python -m pip install -e ".[dev]"                  # POSIX

Tests

pytest tests/test_instructions_drift.py tests/test_parse.py   # offline, no creds

Distribution

Because Legifrance requires a PISTE key, this connector is distributed through the PATRON / appliance channel (governed), not casual drop-in download. See the eu-legal-mcp line notes.
