Real prompts you can type the moment it's connected — no setup, no docs to read.
“Use “judgment_get_header”: USE THIS TOOL WHEN you have a judgment slug and need metadata (parties, judges, neutral citation, court, dates). Call case_law_search FIRST.”
“Use “judgment_get_index”: USE THIS TOOL WHEN you have a judgment slug and want the paragraph navigation index (eId + preview line for every paragraph). Call case_law.”
“Use “judgment_get_paragraph”: USE THIS TOOL WHEN you have a judgment slug + LegalDocML eId and want that paragraph's full text. Call judgment_get_index FIRST to discover.”
“Use “case_law_search”: USE THIS TOOL WHEN searching UK case law by party names, court, judge, date, or free-text query. Returns paginated judgment summaries: neut.”
Every server in the gate directory has to pass the same four checks before your AI can touch it. Here's how UK Legal Research holds up.
Operated by UK Legal Research (bouch.dev) at its documented MCP endpoint — not a third-party mirror or community re-host.
This server only exposes public data — no account and no credentials are involved when you connect.
gate checks every tool for prompt injection, hidden instructions, data-exfiltration hints, and over-broad permissions before the server is available through your gateway.
If UK Legal Research adds or changes tools later, gate re-scans and alerts you — before your AI acts on the change.
Add one gateway URL to Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client. One-time setup, about two minutes.
Choose UK Legal Research in the gate directory. No sign-in needed.
UK Legal Research's tools are live in every AI client you've connected — with rules and logging built in.
