Common questions
Is ClauseKeeper Compliance Scanner safe?
It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.
What keys or codes does it need?
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?
It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).
Is it still maintained?
The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.1) reached the registry 5 months ago.
Which apps can use it?
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Python (uv) on your computer.
What can I use instead?
In the same category: Ckan MCP Server, EU e-invoicing and business checks (EN 16931, Peppol, VAT, sanctions), Lintsure

ClauseKeeper MCP Server
mcp-name: io.github.mityda/clausekeeper
clausekeeper-mcp exposes ClauseKeeper's deterministic compliance scanner as Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools for Claude Desktop, Cursor, and other MCP hosts.
It is a thin wrapper around a vendored copy of the real ClauseKeeper scanner in clausekeeper_core/scanner.py and rule library in clausekeeper_core/clause_rules.py:
- no LLM calls
- no API keys
- no paid services
- stdio transport via the official Python
mcpSDK
Tools
scan_policy_text(text: str)— scans pasted policy/legal text with the vendored ClauseKeeper scanner and returns the score, grade, counts, categories, and missing/stale clause checklist.scan_policy_url(url: str)— fetches a URL, strips HTML with ClauseKeeper'shtml_to_text, then scans the visible text.list_clause_rules()— returns the vendored clause rules and categories.
Run locally
From the main ClauseKeeper repository:
cd mcp
uv run clausekeeper-mcp
uv run creates/uses the local project environment and installs the mcp SDK dependency automatically. Because this is a stdio MCP server, uv run clausekeeper-mcp waits for an MCP client on stdin/stdout.
You can also install it into an explicit virtual environment:
cd mcp
uv venv uv pip install --python .venv/bin/python -e . .venv/bin/clausekeeper-mcp
Or run it directly:
cd /path/to/clausekeeper/mcp
uv run python server.py
MCP host configuration
Use an absolute path to this mcp directory.
Claude Desktop
Add this to your Claude Desktop MCP configuration file:
{
"mcpServers": { "clausekeeper": { "command": "uv", "args": [ "--directory", "/absolute/path/to/clausekeeper/mcp", "run", "clausekeeper-mcp" ] } } }
Cursor or other MCP hosts
Use the same server definition in your MCP settings:
{
"mcpServers": { "clausekeeper": { "command": "uv", "args": [ "--directory", "/absolute/path/to/clausekeeper/mcp", "run", "clausekeeper-mcp" ] } } }
If your host does not support uv --directory, use the installed console script from a virtual environment instead:
{
"mcpServers": { "clausekeeper": { "command": "/absolute/path/to/clausekeeper/mcp/.venv/bin/clausekeeper-mcp", "args": [] } } }
Keeping the vendored scanner in sync
The clausekeeper_core/ package is vendored from the main app's app/scanner.py and app/clause_rules.py so the MCP package is self-contained for PyPI/registry installs. When the scanner or clause rules change in app/, update the matching vendored files here and re-run the MCP self-containment and parity checks.
Publishing metadata
No server.json is included here because the current OSS MCP Community Registry / GitHub MCP Registry metadata format should be confirmed against the registry documentation at publication time. When publishing, add the registry-required metadata file with the package name, description, license, repository URL, runtime command, and tool list.
