Connect jus.al to your AI assistant
ChatGPT, Claude or another assistant searches over 47,000 acts and 31,000 court decisions for you, reads consolidated articles, amendments and decisions, and gives you the jus.al link for every act it cites. You connect it with a personal address that you paste once: no password and no sign-in inside the assistant.
What you need
- A jus.al account on the Profesional or Studio plan, the 7-day free trial included. See pricing.
- To sign in to jus.al once, to create the link under Profile. After you paste it into the assistant, you are not asked to sign in again.
- Claude: works on the free plan too, which allows one connector you add yourself. Paid plans allow more.
- ChatGPT: needs a paid plan that allows MCP servers you add yourself, such as Pro, Business, Enterprise or Edu. It cannot be added on the free plan. On Plus, check whether you have the option in step 2 below.
No paid ChatGPT or Claude plan? You don't need one.
Your jus.al plan already includes the Virtual Assistant, right on the platform, at no extra cost. You need no other account and no link: describe your problem in plain words, and it searches the laws and acts in force, explains what they say and links every article.
100 questions a month on Profesional and 300 on Studio, the free trial included. Connecting ChatGPT or Claude is simply one more option, for people who already use them.
Open the Virtual Assistant →Step 1: create your personal link
- Sign in to jus.al with the account that has your plan (Sign in) and open Profile → Personal link.
- Enter a name you will recognise, for example ChatGPT or Claude, and press Create link.
- Copy the address it shows, which starts with
https://jus.al/mcp/k/. It is shown only once: if you lose it, create a new one.
Make one link per assistant (up to 5), so you can disconnect one without touching the others.
Step 2: Claude
On claude.ai or in the Claude app.
- Open Settings → Connectors (in some versions Customize → Connectors) and choose Add custom connector.
- Name: jus.al. In the address field, Remote MCP server URL, paste your personal link. Leave the other fields empty. Press Add.
- In a new chat, turn on jus.al in the tools menu (+) and ask away.
On Team and Enterprise plans, an organization owner adds the connector first.
Step 2: ChatGPT
On chatgpt.com, in a browser.
- Open Plugins (chatgpt.com/plugins), press + and choose Add custom MCP server.
- Name: jus.al. Under Connection paste your personal link. Under Authentication choose No authentication.
- Accept the warning with I understand and want to continue, press Create as a plugin and install it.
- In every new chat, type @ in the message box and pick jus.al. ChatGPT does not turn it on by itself: without this step it does not use jus.al and may search the web instead.
If you don't see Plugins, try Settings → Apps & Connectors → Advanced settings → Developer mode, then Create, with the same fields. On Business and Enterprise, you may need your workspace admin to allow it.
Other assistants
Any assistant that connects to remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP), such as Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code, accepts the same personal link as its address, with no authentication. In Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http jus <your-personal-link>How to tell it is being used
While it answers you see jus.al calls (search, get_act …), and the answer cites jus.al links. The only official address is the one you create under Profile, on jus.al. Do not use servers with a similar name on other domains: they are not jus.al.
What you can ask
- “How many times has the Albanian Penal Code been amended?”
- “What does the Labour Code say about annual leave, in the text in force?”
- “Find Supreme Court decisions on dismissal without a valid reason.”
You can ask in English: the acts and decisions are in Albanian, and the assistant searches them in Albanian and answers you in English. It can search, open an act, read consolidated articles (also as in force on a date), find amendments, and read court decisions and existing English translations.
Safety, limits and privacy
- The personal link works like a key: anyone who has it reads jus.al in your name. Do not share or post it. If it gets out, press Disconnect under Profile → Connected assistants: it stops working at once.
- The assistant only reads: it cannot change anything in your account.
- Up to 30 requests a minute and 1,000 a day per account.
- What we keep about connections: Privacy policy.
Please note
jus.al texts are unofficial copies, and consolidated texts are merged automatically. Answers are written by your assistant, not by jus.al, and may be wrong. Only the text in the Official Journal is legally binding. This is not legal advice: check the act at the link the assistant gives.
Assistants change their menus and plans from time to time. If you can't find a step, look for “Connectors”, “Plugins” or “MCP”, or write to us at [email protected].
