cite

MCP tool from Jurisd by russellbrenner

Write to the local citation cache. action: add (default) or refreshsource (conditional-HEAD freshness check).

How to use it

Project documentation lists cite for the Jurisd MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
