MCP Connector

USLege Connector for Claude and other AI assistants

The USLege connector gives AI assistants like Claude secure, real-time access to the USLege legislative intelligence platform. Once connected, you can research and track legislation, committees, votes, statutes, hearing video, and more — directly from a conversation, using your existing USLege account and permissions.

The connector is a remote MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. It exposes the same data and actions available in the USLege web app, scoped to your organization and the states you're authorized for. For an overview of what it does and why, see USLege MCP.

Prerequisites

Paid USLege account

Sign in at app.uslege.ai. Legacy and free accounts cannot use the connector.

State access

The connector returns data only for your organization's authorized states. Your existing plan coverage applies.

MCP-compatible client

Claude (claude.ai or Desktop) or any other AI assistant that supports remote MCP servers.

Connecting

USLege is an official app in Anthropic's Claude connector directory. If you use Claude, search “USLege” in Claude's connector directory and add it there — no server URL needed. Skip to step 2 below.

For any other MCP-compatible assistant, add USLege as a custom server using the URL below.

MCP Server URL
https://app.uslege.ai/mcp
Transport: Streamable HTTP Authentication: OAuth 2.0

Add the connector

In Claude, search “USLege” in the connector directory and add it. In any other assistant, add a new connector or custom MCP server and enter the server URL above.

2

Sign in to USLege

You'll be redirected to sign in. Log in with your existing USLege account credentials.

3

Approve and start

Approve the authorization request. You'll be returned to your assistant and the USLege tools become available immediately.

Your assistant never sees your password — authentication happens through USLege's secure OAuth flow, and access can be revoked anytime from your USLege account settings.
