This MCP server acts as a precision engine for legal professionals and researchers. It transforms unstructured legal text into perfectly formatted citations across five major global systems: The Bluebook (US), OSCOLA (UK), AGLC (Australia), McGill Guide (Canada), and ALWD (US). Using the transform_citation tool, you can convert raw case names, statutes, or journal references into precise, publication-ready strings. The engine handles complex requirements like reporter abbreviations, pinpoint page formatting, signal usage, and parallel citations. You can also use validate_authority_type to identify if a text represents a case, statute, journal, or treaty, and resolve_parallel_citations to ensure all required jurisdictional versions are present.
