UK Legal Research with Lex API
This skill requires the Lex MCP server to be installed and enabled. The skill provides guidance on using the Lex tools effectively for UK legal research.
Prerequisites: Lex MCP Server
Check if Lex tools are available (e.g. search_legislation). If not installed, refer the user to https://github.com/i-dot-ai/lex for setup instructions.
When to Use This Skill
- Researching UK legislation (Acts, Statutory Instruments)
- Searching for specific legal provisions or sections
- Analysing how legislation has been amended over time
- Grounding AI responses in authoritative UK legal sources
Available Tools
The Lex MCP server provides these tools:
Legislation Search
- search_legislation - Semantic search across UK Acts and Statutory Instruments
- search_legislation_sections - Search within specific provisions and sections
- get_legislation_amendments - Find amendments to legislation
Search Best Practices
- Be specific with queries - "employment tribunal unfair dismissal" works better than "employment law"
- Use filters - Filter by year or legislation type when possible
- Check amendments - Legislation may have been amended since enactment
Data Coverage
- Legislation: 1267-present (complete from 1963)
- Sources: The National Archives
Important Notes
- This is an experimental service for research purposes
- PDF-sourced legislation (pre-1963) uses LLM extraction - verify at source for critical accuracy
- Rate limited to 60 requests/minute
