PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Law & government data

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "eu-regulations": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@ansvar/eu-regulations-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add eu-regulations -- npx -y @ansvar/eu-regulations-mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "eu-regulations": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@ansvar/eu-regulations-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "eu-regulations": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@ansvar/eu-regulations-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is Eu Regulations MCP 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 (0.7.1) reached the registry 9 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

EU Regulations MCP Server

## ⚰️ RETIRED — folded into ansvar-mcp-fleet (2026-07-07)

This standalone repo is archived. The eu-regulations corpus now lives at

Ansvar-Systems/ansvar-mcp-fleet

under mcps/eu-regulations/ (fold: fleet PR #594; cutover: deploy PR #653, live 2026-07-07).

Production serves the fleet-built image ghcr.io/ansvar-systems/eu-regulations with the

CI-published eu-regulations-data-v2 data image — including the 7 MDR/IVDR delegated +

implementing acts and the 14 robotics instruments (#109).

All new content and fixes go to the fleet monorepo (seeds in mcps/eu-regulations/seed/,

build via scripts/build-chassis-db.ts). Open PRs at archive time, for the record:

#110 (rail EU-law spine — port its instruments to fleet seeds), #113 (README banner,

superseded by this notice), #111 (dependabot), #57 / #4 (stale). The gateway endpoint

below still works — it now serves from the fleet deployment.

The EU regulations corpus is now served through the Ansvar Gateway. Connect your AI assistant (Claude, Copilot, Cursor, custom MCP client) to https://gateway.ansvar.eu/mcp — one OAuth connection, free tier available, covering this corpus plus EU regulations, national law across dozens of audited jurisdictions (Europe + the US), and CVE/security intelligence, every result with a verbatim source citation. Start at https://ansvar.eu/docs/quickstart

Connect

Claude Code (one line):

claude mcp add ansvar --transport http https://gateway.ansvar.eu/mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor — add to claude_desktop_config.json (or mcp.json):

{

"mcpServers": { "ansvar": { "type": "url", "url": "https://gateway.ansvar.eu/mcp" } } }

Claude.ai — Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → paste https://gateway.ansvar.eu/mcp

First request opens an OAuth signup flow (setup details: ansvar.eu/docs/quickstart). After signup, your client is bound to your account; tier (free / premium / team / company) determines fan-out, quota, and which downstream MCPs are reachable.


Self-host this MCP

You can also clone this repo and build the corpus yourself. The schema, fetcher, and tool implementations all live here. What is not in the repo is the pre-built database — TDM and standards-licensing constraints on the upstream sources mean we host the corpus on Ansvar infrastructure rather than redistribute it as a public artifact.

Build your own: run this repo's ingestion script (entry-point varies per repo — typically scripts/ingest.sh, npm run ingest, or make ingest; check the repo root).

MCP server providing structured access to full-text EU regulations via Claude, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible clients.

Query EU regulations — from GDPR and AI Act to DORA, Chips Act, MiFID II, eIDAS, Medical Device Regulation, MDCG cybersecurity guidance, and more — directly from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client.

If you're building digital products, financial services, healthcare tech, or connected devices for the European market, this is your compliance reference.

Built by Ansvar Systems — Stockholm, Sweden


Why This Exists

EU compliance is scattered across EUR-Lex PDFs, official journals, and regulatory sites. Whether you're:

  • A developer implementing GDPR data rights or NIS2 incident reporting
  • A product team navigating AI Act risk assessments or Medical Device conformity
  • A compliance officer mapping ISO 27001 to DORA requirements
  • A legal researcher comparing PSD2 authentication vs. eIDAS trust services

...you shouldn't need a law degree and 47 browser tabs. Ask Claude. Get the exact article. With context.

This MCP server makes EU regulations searchable, cross-referenceable, and AI-readable.


Example Queries

Once connected, just ask naturally:

  • *"What are the risk management requirements under NIS2 Article 21?"*
  • *"How long do I have to report a security incident under DORA?"*
  • *"Compare GDPR breach notification with NIS2 incident reporting"*
  • *"Does the EU AI Act apply to my recruitment screening tool?"*
  • *"What are the essential cybersecurity requirements under the Cyber Resilience Act?"*
  • *"Which regulations apply to a healthcare organization in Germany?"*
  • *"Map DORA ICT risk management to ISO 27001 controls"*
  • *"What is an EU Digital Identity Wallet under eIDAS 2.0?"*
  • *"What are my data access rights under the Data Act?"*

More examples: TEST_QUERIES.md — 60+ example queries organized by category

🎬 See It In Action

Why This Works

Verbatim Source Text (No LLM Processing):

  • All article text is ingested from EUR-Lex/UNECE official sources
  • Snippets are returned unchanged from SQLite FTS5 database rows
  • Zero LLM summarization or paraphrasing — the database contains regulation text, not AI interpretations
  • Note: HTML-to-text conversion normalizes whitespace/formatting, but preserves content

Smart Context Management:

  • Search returns 64-token snippets with highlighted matches (safe for context)
  • Article retrieval warns about token usage (some articles = 70k tokens)
  • Cross-references help navigate without loading everything at once

Technical Architecture:

EUR-Lex HTML → Parse → SQLite → FTS5 snippet() → MCP response

↑ ↑ Formatting only Verbatim database query

Example: EUR-Lex vs. This MCP
EUR-LexThis MCP Server
Search by CELEX numberSearch by plain English: *"incident reporting timeline"*
Navigate 100+ page PDFsGet the exact article with context
Manual cross-referencingcompare_requirements tool does it instantly
"Which regulations apply to me?" → research for dayscheck_applicability tool → answer in seconds
Copy-paste article textArticle + definitions + related requirements
Check 47 sites for updatesDaily automated freshness checks
No API, no integrationMCP protocol → AI-native

EUR-Lex example: Download DORA PDF → Ctrl+F "incident" → Read Article 17 → Google "What's a major incident?" → Cross-reference NIS2 → Repeat for 5 regulations

This MCP: *"Compare incident reporting requirements across DORA, NIS2, and CRA"* → Done.

Directory Review Notes

Testing Account and Sample Data

This server is read-only and does not require a login account for functional review. For directory review, use the bundled dataset and these sample prompts:

  • *"What does NIS2 Article 21 require?"*
  • *"Compare DORA and NIS2 incident reporting obligations."*
  • *"Map ISO 27001 controls to DORA requirements."*
Remote Authentication (OAuth 2.0)

The default server runtime is read-only and can be deployed without authentication. If you deploy a remote authenticated endpoint, use OAuth 2.0 over TLS with certificates from recognized authorities.

⚠️ Important Disclaimers

Legal Advice

🚨 THIS TOOL IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE 🚨

Regulation text is sourced verbatim from EUR-Lex and UNECE (official public sources). However:

- Control mappings (ISO 27001, NIST CSF) are interpretive aids, not official guidance

- Applicability rules are generalizations, not legal determinations

- Cross-references are research helpers, not compliance mandates

Always verify against official sources and consult qualified legal counsel for compliance decisions.

Token Usage

⚠️ Context Window Warning

Some articles are very large (e.g., MDR Article 123 = ~70,000 tokens). The MCP server:

- Search tool: Returns smart snippets (safe for context)

- Get article tool: Returns full text (may consume significant tokens)

- Recommendation: Use search first, then fetch specific articles as needed

Claude Desktop has a 200k token context window. Monitor your usage when retrieving multiple large articles.

ISO Standards Copyright

No copyrighted ISO standards are included. Control mappings reference ISO 27001:2022 control IDs only (e.g., "A.5.1", "A.8.2"). The actual text of ISO standards requires a paid license from ISO. This tool helps map regulations to controls but doesn't replace the standard itself.
