https://canlii-mcp.vaquill.ai/mcp Requires auth (checked 2026-11-09)

Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http canlii-mcp https://canlii-mcp.vaquill.ai/mcp --header "Authorization: <YOUR_VALUE>" --header "X-CanLII-Token: <YOUR_VALUE>"

Or add to your MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "canlii-mcp": {
      "url": "https://canlii-mcp.vaquill.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "<YOUR_VALUE>",
        "X-CanLII-Token": "<YOUR_VALUE>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Authorization secret — Optional. Only for self-hosted deployments that set MCP_AUTH_TOKEN. The public hosted endpoint at canlii-mcp.vaquill.ai does not use it, so leave this blank. Format: 'Bearer <token>'.
X-CanLII-Token required secret — Your CanLII API key. Apply for one at https://www.canlii.org/en/feedback/feedback.html. Header-less clients can instead append ?token=<key> to the endpoint URL. The server never stores your key.
