• indian_legal_mcp_list_acts

  List all available Acts in the database, with metadata and descriptions. Use this to see which legal codes are supported or find short codes. Currently supports 102 official Acts of India.

  Hints: read-only not declared · destructive not declared · idempotent not declared · open-world not declared

• indian_legal_mcp_get_act_info

  Get metadata about one specific Act: its full name, year enacted, and whether it is still current law or has been repealed and replaced by something newer.

  Parameters:

  • act_code (required) — string — short code, e.g. BNS, BNSS, BSA, IPC, CRPC, IEA, COI, CPC, MVA, NIA, RERA, CA, IBC, RTI, ITA, SEBI, SCRA, etc. (102 Acts supported).

  Hints: read-only not declared · destructive not declared · idempotent not declared · open-world not declared

• indian_legal_mcp_resolve_act

  [TOKEN OPTIMIZATION TOOL: Use this instead of list_acts to find act codes for any legal topic or statute name in a tiny, lightweight response.] Find the exact act_code(s) for any topic, statute name, or keyword. Returns a compact list of matching Acts with their act_code, official name, and enactment year. Examples: resolve_act('environment') -> [EPA, NGT, AIR, WATER, WPA, VSA] resolve_act('hindu') -> [HMA, HSA, HAMA] resolve_act('cheque') -> [NIA] resolve_act('company') -> [CA, IBC, COMMERCIAL_COURTS] resolve_act('marriage') -> [HMA, SMA, FCA, PCMA] resolve_act('data protection') -> [DPDPA, IT_ACT]

  Parameters:

  • query (required) — string — search term, topic, or statute name, e.g. 'environment', 'hindu', 'cheque', 'company', 'tax', 'labor', 'bail'.

  Hints: read-only not declared · destructive not declared · idempotent not declared · open-world not declared

• indian_legal_mcp_get_section

  [AI TOOL ORCHESTRATION INSTRUCTION: Only use this tool AFTER you have found the exact section number via search_keyword, or if the user explicitly provided it.] Get the exact text of ONE section (or Constitution article) by its number. Use this when someone asks about a specific, known section number, e.g. 'what does BNS Section 103 say', 'show me IPC 302', or 'what does COI Article 21 say'. If the Act is repealed (IPC, CRPC, or IEA), the result includes a note that it no longer applies to new cases and names what replaced it. For the Constitution of India (COI), section_number='0' retrieves the Preamble.

  Parameters:

  • act_code (required) — string — e.g. 'BNS', 'IPC', 'COI'.
  • section_number (required) — string — e.g. '103', '25A', '0' (Preamble), '394A'. Always given as a string.

  Hints: read-only not declared · destructive not declared · idempotent not declared · open-world not declared

• indian_legal_mcp_list_sections

  List every section NUMBER and TITLE in one Act, without the full body text. Use this to browse what exists in an Act before deciding which specific section or chapter to fetch in full -- much shorter than get_full_act.

  Parameters:

  • act_code (required) — string — e.g. 'BNS', 'MVA', 'COI'.

  Hints: read-only not declared · destructive not declared · idempotent not declared · open-world not declared

• indian_legal_mcp_get_chapter

  Get every section within one chapter (or Constitution Part) of an Act, with full text. Supports all chaptered Acts in the database (e.g. BNS, BNSS, BSA, IPC, CRPC, IEA, COI, CA, IBC, SEBI, SCRA, ITA, EA, DCA, LLP, MHA, MSMED, etc.). You can query by Roman numeral (e.g. 'I', 'III', 'VIA'), Arabic numeral (e.g. '1', '3', '6A'), or by chapter title keywords (e.g. 'Fundamental Rights', 'Adjudication', 'Demutualisation'). For CPC and MVA, which lack chapter grouping in this dataset, it returns an informative message.

  Parameters:

  • act_code (required) — string — short code, e.g. 'BNS', 'COI', 'SEBI', 'SCRA', 'ITA', 'LLP'.
  • chapter_number (required) — string — chapter/part number or title, e.g. '1', 'I', 'Chapter 4', 'Part III', 'Fundamental Rights'.

  Hints: read-only not declared · destructive not declared · idempotent not declared · open-world not declared

• indian_legal_mcp_get_section_range

  Get all sections between a start and end number (inclusive) with full text. If start and end are provided in reverse order, it silently corrects them and includes a note in the response.

  Parameters:

  • act_code (required) — string — e.g. 'BNS', 'COI'.
  • start_section (required) — string — e.g. '100', '12'.
  • end_section (required) — string — e.g. '110', '19'.

  Hints: read-only not declared · destructive not declared · idempotent not declared · open-world not declared

• indian_legal_mcp_get_full_act

  Get an entire Act, in full, returned in paginated chunks (50 sections/page). Use only when genuinely needing the whole Act. If a page beyond the total pages is requested, it gracefully returns empty sections with a note.

  Parameters:

  • act_code (required) — string — e.g. 'BNS', 'COI'.
  • page — integer — The page number to fetch. Default is 1.

  Hints: read-only not declared · destructive not declared · idempotent not declared · open-world not declared

• indian_legal_mcp_search_keyword

  [AI TOOL ORCHESTRATION INSTRUCTION: ALWAYS use this tool FIRST when the specific section number is unknown. Never guess section numbers.] Search section titles and text across all 102 Acts (including the 2026 Constitution of India, criminal, civil, commercial, corporate, labor, tax, environmental, public health, and family codes). Exact title matches rank #1, partial title matches rank #2, and body text matches rank #3 (via BM25). Handles exact phrases, multi-word keywords, section citations (e.g. 'Article 21: Life & Liberty'), and punctuation gracefully. If filtered by an Act that has no matching provisions, dynamically detects and suggests other Acts in the database where relevant provisions exist.

  Parameters:

  • query (required) — string — search term(s), e.g. 'punishment for murder', 'freedom of speech', 'anticipatory bail', 'arbitration agreement', 'corporate governance', 'cheque bounce'.
  • act_code — string — optional -- restrict search to one Act (e.g. 'BNS', 'IPC', 'COI', 'CA', 'RERA', 'IBC').

  Hints: read-only not declared · destructive not declared · idempotent not declared · open-world not declared

• indian_legal_mcp_convert_section

  Map/convert any criminal law section between the old repealed codes (IPC, CrPC, IEA) and the new 2023 criminal codes (BNS, BNSS, BSA) in either direction. Returns the corresponding section number, amendment status ('Retained', 'Change', 'Deleted', 'New Section', 'New Sub-Section'), a concise mapping statement, and the full statutory text of both sections for instant comparison. Examples: convert_section('IPC', '302') -> maps to BNS Section 103 (Punishment for murder) convert_section('BNS', '103') -> maps to IPC Section 302 + highlights new sub-section 103(2) (Mob Lynching) convert_section('CRPC', '437') -> maps to BNSS Section 480 (Non-bailable offence bail) convert_section('IEA', '65B') -> maps to BSA Section 63 (Electronic records admissibility) convert_section('IPC', '377') -> notes that this section was repealed and deleted in BNS convert_section('BNS', '111') -> notes that Organised Crime is a newly introduced provision
