Yargı MCP

Name: Yargı MCP MCP Server
Author: saidsurucu

Read-only Turkish-law MCP — search rulings across Yargıtay, Danıştay, Anayasa Mahkemesi, and UYAP, with stable case-citation output.

Yargı MCP is a read-only bridge to Turkey's public legal databases. Useful for legal research workflows where you want Claude to cite primary sources rather than hallucinate. All data is publicly available; no credentials required.

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json · Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "yargi-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "yargi-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config. Restart after saving.

~/.cursor/mcp.json · .cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "yargi-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "yargi-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Cursor uses the same mcpServers schema as Claude Desktop. Project config wins over global.

VS Code → Cline → MCP Servers → Edit

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "yargi-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "yargi-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Click the MCP Servers icon in the Cline sidebar, then "Edit Configuration".

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "yargi-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "yargi-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same shape as Claude Desktop. Restart Windsurf to pick up changes.

~/.continue/config.json

{
  "mcpServers": [
    {
      "name": "yargi-mcp",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "yargi-mcp"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Continue uses an array of server objects rather than a map.

~/.config/zed/settings.json

{
  "context_servers": {
    "yargi-mcp": {
      "command": {
        "path": "uvx",
        "args": [
          "yargi-mcp"
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

Add to context_servers. Zed hot-reloads on save.

claude mcp add yargi-mcp -- uvx yargi-mcp

One-liner. Verify with claude mcp list. Remove with claude mcp remove.
