9| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| role | enum | No | Whether you are bringing the motion (moving) or responding to it (responding).moving | responding |
| motion | enum | Yes | Which motion. compel-further = Motion to compel further responses; compel-initial = Motion to compel initial responses; protective-order = Motion for protective order; demurrer = Demurrer; motion-to-strike = Motion to strike; judgment-on-pleadings = Motion for judgment on the pleadings; quash-service = Motion to quash service of summons; anti-slapp = Anti-SLAPP special motion to strike; msj = Motion for summary judgment / adjudication; reconsideration = Motion for reconsideration; new-trial = Motion for new trial; jnov = Motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict; preference = Motion for trial preference; reopen-discovery = Motion to reopen discovery; compel-arbitration = Motion to compel arbitration; ex-parte = Ex parte applicationcompel-further | compel-initial | protective-order | demurrer | motion-to-strike | judgment-on-pleadings | quash-service | anti-slapp | msj | reconsideration | new-trial | jnov | preference | reopen-discovery | compel-arbitration | ex-parte |
| entry_date | string | No | new-trial and jnov only: the date judgment was entered. Section 659(a)(2) ends the time 180 days after entry if that comes before 15 days after notice of entry, and with no notice of entry served it is the only limit. Give it whenever it is known. |
| hearing_date | string | Yes | The hearing date, as reserved with the department. EXCEPT for new-trial and jnov, which are briefed under section 659a and do not count back from a hearing: for those, give the date the notice of intention was filed (moving party) or the date the moving brief was served on you (responding party). |
| trigger_date | string | No | For a motion that must be brought within a period after an event, the date of that event (for a demurrer to a complaint served with the summons, the date service of the summons was complete, see trigger_papers; for new-trial and jnov, the first service of notice of entry of judgment, by the clerk or by any party). Omit for motions timed only off the hearing date. |
| service_method | enum | Yes | How the MOVING PAPERS will be served. This drives the section 1005(b) notice period. For new-trial and jnov it is how the moving brief is served, which extends the section 659a opposition period under section 1013, and under section 1010.6 for electronic service made before January 1, 2027. From that date electronic service adds no time (AB 540, Stats. 2026, ch. 263). Not the same question as trigger_service_method.electronic | personal | mail-ca | mail-os | mail-intl | overnight | mail-sos |
| trigger_papers | enum | No | For demurrer, motion-to-strike and anti-slapp only: which papers started the clock. summons = the complaint or cross-complaint served with a summons (the default); trigger_date is then the date service was COMPLETE (delivery for personal service, the 10th day after mailing for substituted service or mail outside California, the signing date for notice and acknowledgment), and no service extension applies. served = an amended complaint, or a cross-complaint served on a party that has appeared; 30 days (60 for anti-slapp) after service, extended under sections 1013 and 1010.6 by trigger_service_method. answer = an answer or amended answer (demurrer and motion-to-strike only); 10 days after service, extended the same way. Ignored for other motions.summons | served | answer |
| trigger_service_method | enum | No | How the TRIGGERING papers were served ON the moving party. This is a different question from service_method and only this one extends the time to BRING the motion under section 1013. It never extends a period that runs from service of a summons: section 1016 takes service of a summons outside sections 1010.6 and 1013, so for a complaint served with the summons it is ignored. The common case is a complaint served personally and a demurrer served electronically. Defaults to personal, which adds nothing, so an unknown answer errs early rather than granting days that were not earned.electronic | personal | mail-ca | mail-os | mail-intl | overnight | mail-sos |

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
