AI legal research over MCP: search U.S. case law, fetch full opinions, and ask matter-aware questions grounded in your own documents.
Overview
Ezel is an AI legal platform exposed as a remote MCP server. Connect it to Claude, Cursor, or Claude Code to research U.S. case law and query your own legal documents, without leaving your AI client.
Tools
- ezel_search_caselaw: search U.S. case law (CourtListener), ranked, with citations
- ezel_get_case: fetch the full opinion text and metadata for a case
- ezel_ask: ask a general U.S. legal question (research mode)
- ezel_list_matters: list your matters (cases/projects)
- ezel_ask_matter: ask a question answered from the documents in a specific matter, with citations
Connecting
Server URL: https://app.ezel.ai/mcp (Streamable HTTP)
Claude: add a custom connector with the Server URL, sign in, and click Allow (OAuth, no API key needed).
Cursor / Claude Code: create a key in Ezel under Settings > Connector, then use:
{
"mcpServers": {
"ezel": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://app.ezel.ai/mcp",
"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ezel_live_..." }
}
}
}
Requires an Ezel account. Read-only: the connector can list matters, ask over documents, and search case law. It cannot upload, edit, or delete anything.
