no_law_search

Pack: norway-law · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/no_law_search for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Find Norwegian acts (lover) by title, short title, abbreviation or law number. Give a subject word (“arbeidsmiljø”), a short title or abbreviation (“straffeloven”, “mrl”), or the act’s number as Norwegians cite it (“lov 21 mai 1999 nr 30”, or “1999-05-21-30”). Returns the act id, full title, short title, entry-into-force date and the date of the last change in force, for the consolidated current acts published by Lovdata (about 750 acts, in Norwegian). Searches titles only, not the text of the acts; use no_law_get to read one. Every answer carries data_as_of, answered_from and the NLOD licence attribution. Keyless.
