# Swedish Financial Regulation MCP
<!-- ANSVAR-CTA-BEGIN -->
> **The Swedish financial-regulation 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):
```bash
claude mcp add ansvar --transport http https://gateway.ansvar.eu/mcp
```
**Claude Desktop / Cursor** — add to `claude_desktop_config.json` (or `mcp.json`):
```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](https://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).

Naming Consistency5/5
All tools follow a consistent 'se_fin_verb_noun' pattern (e.g., se_fin_check_currency, se_fin_list_sourcebooks), making naming predictable and clear.
Tool Count5/5
With 6 tools, the server is well-scoped for its domain of Swedish financial regulation, covering key operations without being too sparse or bloated.
Completeness5/5
The tool set covers the full lifecycle of querying regulations: metadata, checking validity, retrieval, listing sourcebooks, enforcement search, and full-text search. No obvious gaps.
