# Court Rules MCP Server

[![Court Rules MCP connector: tool definition quality and endpoint health on Glama](https://glama.ai/mcp/connectors/app.courtrules/court-rules/badges/score.svg)](https://glama.ai/mcp/connectors/app.courtrules/court-rules)

Judge-level court filing rules, court holiday calendars, and privacy enforcement
data for US federal and state courts, as an MCP server.

Court rules are the part of legal work that models get wrong most confidently.
Standing orders and individual practices live as PDFs on hundreds of separate
court websites, change without notice, and are not in any model's training data.
Ask an unaided model what page limit applies in front of a named judge and it
will usually invent a plausible number.

This server answers from the actual documents, and every rule carries a citation
back to the page and section of the order it came from.

## Quick start

No install. Add the hosted server, then sign in once when your client asks. It
opens the Court Rules console in your browser; approve the connection and the
client stays signed in.

Claude Code:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http court-rules https://mcp.courtrules.app/mcp
```

Then run `/mcp`, select `court-rules`, and choose **Authenticate**.

- **Claude Desktop and claude.ai:** Settings > Connectors > Add custom
  connector, URL `https://mcp.courtrules.app/mcp`, then Connect.
- **Cursor:** add the server to `~/.cursor/mcp.json` and click the sign-in
  prompt in Cursor Settings > MCP.

  ```json
  {
    "mcpServers": {
      "court-rules": {
        "url": "https://mcp.courtrules.app/mcp"
      }
    }
  }
  ```

- **VS Code, Codex CLI, and others:** see the
  [quick start](https://docs.courtrules.app/guides/mcp-court-rules#quick-start).

Scripts, backends, and clients without sign-in can send the API key from
https://console.courtrules.app as `Authorization: Bearer <api_key>`. Keys do not
expire.

## ChatGPT plugin

Court Rules is also a plugin in the ChatGPT directory. Install it and ChatGPT
answers filing questions for a specific judge or court, with each answer linked
to the source document and the page where the rule sits. Open a judge in the
side panel to read the extracted rules next to the quoted text.
