For agents & developers

The same data, machine-side.

Every section is a node. Statutes, regulations, cases and cross-references are typed edges. Query it over MCP, REST, or a single llms.txt — every response pinned to mpep-e9r01-2024-html for reproducibility.

A citation graph, not a scrape
Ask for a section and get its statutes, regulations, cited authorities and cross-references as typed, resolvable edges — with reverse citations already computed. Stable IDs mean the same query returns the same graph every time.

Tools over MCP

The mpep server exposes the corpus as typed tools — the same retrieval behind this site’s search.

searchBM25 full-text search across every section
get_sectionFull section text with its cited-authority digest
resolve_citation“MPEP § 2143.01”, “35 U.S.C. 112”, “KSR” → target + where the manual discusses it
what_citesReverse lookup: every section citing a case or statute
read_caseFull opinion text for cited cases (CAP / CourtListener)
get_form_paragraphExaminer form paragraph text by number
coverageEdition, revision and structured coverage breakdown
list_chapterSection listing for a chapter with quality flags

Typical flow: search get_section on the hits; a citation in hand → resolve_citation; “where does the manual discuss this case?” → what_cites.
