Why This Exists
Kenyans abroad navigate dual citizenship, diaspora taxation, property purchase and document verification across two legal systems at once, usually with advice that is out of date or second-hand. The cost of getting it wrong is measured in years, not shillings.

Data & Disclaimers
Immigration, tax and property rules change and interact with the law of your country of residence. This is orientation, not legal or tax advice — confirm with an advocate and a qualified tax adviser.
Every tool response carries a source field. Responses labelled DEMO are
illustrative reference data, not a live feed — verify against the authority
named in the response before acting on it.

New to MCP?
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.
