Best for
  • Legal researchers and academics
  • Lawyers and legal assistants
  • Law students and educators
  • Developers building Swiss law applications
  • Biomedical researchers
  • Clinicians
  • AI agents that need efficient access to biomedical literature and data analysis
Not for
  • Users needing offline access (remote mode requires internet)
  • Scenarios requiring real-time legal updates (data refreshed daily but remote is nightly)
  • Users with strict disk space limits (local mode needs ~65GB)
  • Users needing to write to upstream databases (read-only)
  • Users requiring direct access to closed datasets (e.g., COSMIC is not directly integrated)
  • Users expecting all advanced features without API keys
Required permissions
  • Only uses MCP protocol to call remote server, no system-level permissions
  • Local mode reads ~/.swiss-caselaw directory for index storage
  • Accesses public legal data, no user privacy involved
  • Requires internet access to query public biomedical APIs
  • Optional API keys (NCBI, Semantic Scholar, OpenFDA, etc.) to improve rate limits or unlock features
  • Local read/write access for skills, cache, and local study data (e.g., `~/.local/share/biomcp`)
Risks and side effects
  • Remote server depends on external services, may be interrupted by network issues
  • Local mode requires significant disk space (~65GB), download may take time
  • Data is CC0 but scraped from official court sites, may contain parsing errors or incompleteness
  • MCP server is free, but client like ChatGPT may require paid plan
  • Upstream API rate limits may affect performance
  • Some data sources (e.g., KEGG) have licensing terms that restrict non-academic use
  • Features requiring API keys (e.g., OncoKB) may be incomplete without them
  • Local binary installations need regular updates for compatibility
