Share Legislative Tools with Your Team

Add the ALESP server to your project's `.vscode/mcp.json` file and commit it. Now, every developer on your team gets the same set of tools in Copilot Chat automatically. No individual setup required. When anyone on the team needs to check a bill's status, they can ask Copilot to use `get_documento_andamento_atual`. This standardizes how your application interacts with ALESP data, ensuring consistency.

Query Deputy and Committee Data

Your team can stop searching the web for basic political information. Need to know who is on a specific committee? Ask Copilot to run `get_comissoes_membros`. Want a list of all deputies? That's what `get_deputados` is for. This information is available directly in the editor, right where your team builds. It's faster than context-switching to a browser and more reliable than copying and pasting from a website.

Access Administrative and Staff Info

This MCP Server goes beyond just legislation. Your agent can query the assembly's internal structure, listing administrative units with `get_uas` or staff placements with `get_lotacoes`. You can even look up staff job histories using `get_funcionarios_cargos`. For projects that need to model the assembly's organization, these tools are invaluable. Copilot can fetch the data instantly, providing the context your team needs to build accurate features.
