legislation_search
shallowio.github.paulieb89/uk-legal-mcp · Verify this server
USE THIS TOOL WHEN searching UK Acts and Statutory Instruments by title, phrase, or full-text. Returns ranked results: title, type, year, number, legislation.gov.uk URL, and next_steps hints (toc URI, section template). AFTER calling, chain to legislation_get_toc then legislation_get_section for structural drill-in. Filter discipline: `type` and `year` are exact-match. Use only when you already know the value. For currency-driven searches ("the recent Renters' Rights Act"), query by phrase alone and read the year from the results — guessing a year and filtering by it zeroes results when wrong. For broader concept queries across content, set `fulltext=True`. Authoritative source for UK primary and secondary legislation (legislation.gov.uk).
