Nobody here has read this server's code, because it publishes none. The description above is the maker's own, from the registry. A connection test shows whether it answers and what tools it says it has; it never calls a tool, so it cannot show what one does with your data.
Where it sits in the directory's order
What can be seen from outside, weighed as the directory publishes.
Observable signals: 60 of 100 points (at most 60 here)
| Input | Points | What was seen |
|---|---|---|
| Source published | held at 0 | No entry here publishes source: that is what puts it in this directory. |
| Licence stated | held at 0 | With no files, there is nothing for a licence to be stated in or held against. |
| Advisory state | held at 0 | Advisory databases index packages, and these entries publish none, so there is nothing to look up. |
| Auth declared | 15 of 15 | The registry entry declares a key or a token. |
| Latest connection test reached it | 20 of 20 | The latest test had its handshake answered. |

The MCP handshake, then a request for the tool list, with no key and no data of yours. Run nightly, and by anyone, at most once every ten minutes per server.

The tools it lists (36, as of 3 days ago)
The tool-description rules found nothing in these descriptions. They look for instructions aimed at a model and for hidden characters; they cannot see what a tool does when it runs.
search_billsSearch or list legislation with structured filters (GET /v1/bills). Use this when you know the jurisdiction, sponsor, topic, or status you want. Every filter is optional and they combine with AND. A bill number typed into q (e.g. 'HB 1', 'SB0002') matches that bill directly. Returns bill summaries plus pagination; call get_bill for the full record. Corpus is 2026-forward only. status_id values: 1=Introduced, 2=In Committee, 3=Passed One Chamber, 4=Passed Both Chambers, 5=Signed into Law, 6=Vetoed, 7=Failed/Dead, 8=Chaptered. Aggregate buckets: passed={4,5,8}, failed={6,7}, alive={1,2,3}.
semantic_search_billsVector search over the full text of every bill (GET /v1/search/semantic): describe what you want in plain English — 'protecting kids from social media', 'limits on rent increases' — and get the closest bills with a match_score. Prefer this over search_bills for questions and topics; prefer search_bills for a known bill number, sponsor, or status filter, and keyword_search_bills for exact terms that must all appear. Returns bill_id, bill_number, title, description, state_abbr, status_id. Corpus is 2026-forward only. status_id values: 1=Introduced, 2=In Committee, 3=Passed One Chamber, 4=Passed
get_billFetch a single bill by its numeric bill_id (GET /v1/bills/{bill_id}), optionally merging in sub-resources: votes (roll calls with tallies), sponsors, history (action timeline), texts (version metadata), amendments, subjects, analyses (staff analyses), calendar (scheduled events), citations (statutes the bill touches), referrals (committee referrals), sast (same-as / similar-to companion bills in the other chamber or other states), supplements (fiscal notes and summaries). analyses and citations are populated only for the deeper-coverage states. Each include is a separate API call, so ask only
get_bill_diffCompare two versions of a bill's text (GET /v1/bills/{bill_id}/diff): a unified diff plus similarity, added/removed line and character counts, and changed-section highlights. Get the two version ids from get_bill with include:['texts'] — each text row's `text_id`. Pass them as `from` (the earlier version) and `to` (the later version). Diffs are precomputed, so only bills that have more than one text version return one.
How this entry becomes a listing
For the maker. The catalogue lists what it can read, and this server publishes nothing to read yet. There are two routes, and only the first is open today.
Publish the source Open today
- Put the server's source in a public repository on github.com, with a licence.
- Keep a server.json in that repository naming this server,
com.delilahusa/legislation, and declare the repository in it:"repository": { "url": "https://github.com/owner/repo", "source": "github" }, adding"subfolder"when the server lives in a folder. - Publish that version to the official MCP registry.
- The nightly registry sweep records the declaration. This page stays, dated, and says the source is declared but not yet read.
- The catalogue reads declared repositories at a pinned commit, in batches run by hand, and lists the servers that meet the batch's rules (among them a server.json at that commit naming the server, an https endpoint and a licence). When it lists this server, this page links to the listing. There is no schedule, so no date can be promised.
