Details
From the project READMEsk-eli-mcp
An MCP server for the Slovak Collection of Laws (Zbierka zákonov) via static.slov-lex.sk, the JavaScript-free static mirror of the Slov-lex portal. It fetches Slovak legislation and its consolidated versions, with verifiable citations.
Part of the MateMatic eu-legal-mcp production line - after PL, DE, AT, ES, FI, IE, NL, SE, FR,
LU, DK, CZ, HR and LT. Same citation contract, Slov-lex source. Slovakia implements ELI (Pillar I).
Scope. This MVP lists an act's consolidated versions, returns metadata, and fetches the full text of a version. Acts are addressed by year + number; the portal is path-based, not keyword search. Coverage 1918-present. Language: Slovak. Every response carries a
dataset_note.ELI is national (Pillar I), not data.europa.eu. The static pages carry no machine-readable ELI metadata, so
eli_uriis the canonical Slov-lex URL (slov-lex.sk/pravne-predpisy/SK/ZZ/{year}/{number}), the stable national identifier. Full text is served from thestatic.slov-lex.skmirror (source_url). Every response carries aneli_note.Text is extracted from the official HTML. Slov-lex serves the consolidated text as HTML;
sk_get_textextracts the plain text from the act container.
The tools
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
sk_get_versions | List an act's consolidated versions (effective dates, amending act). |
sk_get_act | Metadata for an act by year + number, plus the current in-force version. |
sk_get_text | Full text of an act version (default: the current in-force version). |
sk_coverage | Declare what this connector covers, when each family was captured, and - explicitly - what it does NOT cover. Every gap carries a fallback. |
Every response carries the contract: eli_uri (the Slov-lex URL, e.g.
https://www.slov-lex.sk/pravne-predpisy/SK/ZZ/2018/18/), human_readable_citation
(e.g. č. 18/2018 Z. z.), and source_url.
Install
As a Claude plugin (Claude Code or the desktop app, needs uv); see plugin/README.md for what it sends and stores:
/plugin marketplace add matematicsolutions/sk-eli-mcp
/plugin install sk-eli-mcp@sk-eli-mcp
As a standalone server, from PyPI:
uvx sk-eli-mcp
Or from source:
cd sk-eli-mcp
pip install -e .
Configure (Claude Code / any MCP client)
{
"mcpServers": {
"sk-eli-mcp": { "command": "sk-eli-mcp" }
}
}
Windows 11 with Smart App Control
Smart App Control blocks unsigned executables, which covers uvx.exe, pip.exe
and the sk-eli-mcp.exe launcher that pip writes at install time. The python.exe and
py.exe from the python.org installer are signed by the Python Software
Foundation, so running the module through the interpreter works:
python -m pip install sk-eli-mcp
python -m sk_eli_mcp
pip.exe is blocked for the same reason, so install with python -m pip, not
pip install. If python is not on PATH, use the Windows launcher: py -3 -m sk_eli_mcp.
{ "mcpServers": { "sk-eli-mcp": { "command": "python", "args": ["-m", "sk_eli_mcp"] } } }
Do not turn Smart App Control off to work around this - it cannot be re-enabled without reinstalling Windows.
Environment:
SK_ELI_BASE_URL- defaulthttps://static.slov-lex.skSK_ELI_CACHE_DIR- default~/.matematic/cache/sk-eliSK_ELI_AUDIT_DIR- default~/.matematic/audit
No API key. The Slov-lex static mirror is keyless.
Governance
- Public data only - read-only against Slov-lex; no client data leaves the machine.
- Audit log - every tool call appends one JSON line to
~/.matematic/audit/sk-eli-mcp.jsonl. - Network - the server talks to
static.slov-lex.skand the local filesystem. Once, on first use, it also fetches a small configuration file (sk-runtime.json.gz, updated source addresses) from this repository's GitHub Releases. That request carries no query content; GitHub's download counter for the file is the only usage signal we see.SK_ELI_RUNTIME_URL=""turns it off; the Claude plugin ships with it off. No LLM provider, no other telemetry. - Verifiable citations - every response is independently checkable via
source_url.
See CONSTITUTION.md and DISCOVERY.md.

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.
