npx -y @legalge/mcpLEGALGE_BASE_URLOverride the legal.ge API base URL (e.g. for staging). Defaults to https://legal.ge.Local servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.

Details
From the project READMElegal.ge MCP server
Find verified legal specialists in Georgia from inside Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any Model Context Protocol client.
This server wraps the public legal.ge Ask API as MCP tools. Ask in natural language; get matched practice areas plus ranked verified specialists with their profile URLs.
What it does
Exposes two tools:
find_legal_specialists— describe a legal situation in natural language; get matched practice areas, specific services, and a ranked list of verified specialists, each with a profile URL on legal.ge.classify_legal_intent— same matcher without the specialist lookup. Returns just the matched categories, useful when you want to identify the legal domain before deciding next steps.
Both tools support Georgian (ka), English (en), and Russian (ru). The matcher handles colloquial phrasings, legal jargon, and cross-script abbreviations (AML, KYC, MLC, ICC, etc.).
Trust contract
- Verified profiles only. Every specialist returned is
verification_status='verified'on legal.ge. Many are registered with the Georgian Bar Association — checkprofessional_orgson each result. - Contact info is opt-in.
contact.emailandcontact.phoneare populated only when the specialist has chosen to publish them. Otherwise null — the user signs in on legal.ge to send a message. - Read-only. This server cannot create inquiries, bookings, or any other side effects. It only queries.
- No keys required. The legal.ge Ask API is public; rate-limited per IP.

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.
