Gestiolex Corpus

GestioLex Corpus

What this MCP is

• GestioLex Corpus is a remote MCP server developed and provided by GestioLex at https://corpus.gestiolex.it/mcp.
• It gives the assistant access to Italian legal research tools for code articles, statutory lookup, and jurisprudential massime.
• This repository ships only the skill instructions; it does not include or run the GestioLex Corpus MCP server.

Runtime compatibility

• In Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or Claude for Work/Cowork, use the available MCP tools exposed by the configured gestiolex_corpus server.
• In Codex or OpenAI environments, use the available gestiolex_corpus MCP tools with the same routing rules.
• If the runtime does not expose the required MCP tools, say that GestioLex Corpus is not available in the current environment and ask whether to use another documented source or workflow.
• Do not invent equivalent tool results from memory.

Quick routing

• Use leggi_articolo when the user already gives both article and code.
• Use cerca_norma when the user needs a statutory basis but does not know the exact citation.
• Use cerca_giurisprudenza when the user asks for orientamenti, precedenti, massime, principi di diritto, or case-law support.
• Treat bare patterns like 111 c.c., 360 c.p.c., 24 Cost., 3 codice del consumo, or 24 Carta costituzionale as exact article requests when the user asks to read, retrieve, or quote the text.
• Resolve longer code abbreviations before shorter ones: c.p.p. before c.p., and c.p.c. before c.p. or c.c..

Operating rules

• Prefer one tool call first, not parallel search by default.
• Keep the first query short, technical, and low-ambiguity.
• Use k=1 for a single precise hook, k=3 for normal legal research, k=5 only for panoramiche or contrastive orientation.
• Let narrow markers override broad-looking words: solo, un solo, molto mirate, piu vicino, riferimento preciso, and gancio piu utile mean k=1.
• If the first result set is off-topic, reformulate once with fewer words and stronger legal nouns.
• If the second attempt is still weak, say so explicitly and avoid overstating confidence.

Query construction

• Reduce narrative prompts to istituto + problema.
• For smaller or less reliable models, extract the legal topic after su, di, in materia di, or relativo a, then remove procedural filler.
• Preserve article numbers only when they disambiguate the search.
• For cerca_giurisprudenza, avoid mixing too many facts and too many provisions in one query.
• For cerca_norma, prefer legal nouns over full natural-language questions.
• If the prompt says disciplina, norma, base normativa, or articolo, prefer cerca_norma even if it also uses a generic word like orientamento.
• If the query matches a high-confidence known anchor in the reference file, use leggi_articolo directly.

Response style

• Answer the legal point first.
• Then cite the article or the massima source briefly.
• Flag partial relevance inline when the returned result is useful but not exact.
• Avoid long quotations unless the exact wording is the point of the request.
