What problem does it solve?
Scoping a Swiss-facing product means hunting statutes and article numbers manually, which slows validation and invites wrong compliance assumptions.
Who is it for?
Builders validating MVP scope for Switzerland who want agent-accessible federal law search without maintaining their own Fedlex client.
Skip if: Cantonal-only law research, non-Swiss legal systems, or teams without an MCP-enabled agent workflow.
What do I get? / Deliverables
Once connected, your agent can fetch Fedlex-linked legislation snippets you cite in scope docs, user-facing disclaimers, and build-phase compliance checklists.
- Federal law and article references embedded in scope or PRD drafts
- Amendment-aware citations for agent-generated compliance notes
- Reusable remote MCP entry for ongoing Swiss regulatory lookups
Recommended MCP Servers
Journey fit
Validate is the shelf where you narrow what you will build; federal statute text is how you prove obligations and boundaries before full implementation. Scope subphase fits because Fedlex Connector answers which legal articles and amendments matter for your MVP claims and data flows.
How it compares
Fedlex SPARQL bridge MCP, not a packaged compliance audit skill or Entscheidsuche case-law server.
