From the repository

Install by cloning the repository, creating a Python 3.9+ virtual environment, and installing dependencies (FastAPI, Uvicorn, httpx, MCP Python SDK). Start the server with uvicorn mcp_riksdagen_server:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 --reload. Claude can then invoke its three MCP tools: riksdagen_search, riksdagen_get_document_types, and riksdagen_create_url_list using parameters like search term, document type, parliamentary year, date range, sort order, and format.

Claude Desktop / Cursor

Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.

The project is generetad using Claude 3.7.

Overview

The Riksdagen MCP server provides tools for searching documents in the Swedish Parliament's open data archive. It allows Claude to:

1. Search for documents based on various criteria (keywords, document types, dates, etc.)
2. Get a list of available document types
3. Create lists of URLs for specific documents in various formats (JSON, HTML, text)

Prerequisites

- Python 3.9+
- FastAPI
- Uvicorn
- MCP Python SDK
- httpx

Installation

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/amrtini/riksdagen-mcp-server.git

   cd riksdagen-mcp-server

2. Create a virtual environment:

   python -m venv venv

   source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate

3. Install dependencies:

   pip install fastapi uvicorn httpx mcp

Note: You might need to install the MCP Python SDK directly from its repository:

   pip install git+https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/python-sdk.git

Running the Server

1. Start the MCP server:

   uvicorn mcp_riksdagen_server:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 --reload

2. The server will be available at http://localhost:8000

3. riksdagen_create_url_list

Create a list of URLs for Riksdagen documents in the specified format.

Parameters:
- document_ids: List of document IDs
- format: Format of the documents (default: "json", options: "json", "html", "text")

Returns:
A JSON object containing document URLs.

Using with Claude

Claude can use this MCP server to search for documents in the Riksdagen archive and generate URL lists for further processing. The example client demonstrates how to interact with the server.

Example Claude Prompt

I want to search for documents in the Swedish Parliament archive about climate change (klimat in Swedish) from the last year. Can you help me find relevant motions and create a list of URLs to access them?

Claude can then use the MCP tools to:
1. Search for documents with the term "klimat"
2. Filter for motion documents (doktyp="mot")
3. Set the parliamentary year to the current one
4. Create a list of URLs for the found documents

Using the Client

The included client demonstrates how to interact with the MCP server programmatically:

```python
