  Use this to read or quote an EU legislative provision, such as PSD2 Article 97 or RTS-SCA Article 5. Returns the source text of an article, annex or recital as markdown (a sub- or superscript with no Unicode form as inline <sub>/<sup>), with its cite anchor, provenance and…

• get_instrument

  Use this to check an EU instrument's recorded legal status, source version, dates and amendments, including whether a held PSR or PSD3 text is a proposal, a Council compromise text or the act published in the Official Journal. Metadata, dates, lifecycle and application events…

• list_instruments

  Use this to discover which EU instruments are held before a coverage question, or find their registry ids and legal status. Paginated, filterable by status, category, core/supplementary, and by whether an instrument was in force on a given date. For corpus-coverage questions…

• get_source_notes

  Use this to read the original legislative footnotes and source-note bodies for a held instrument, including preamble and annex notes. Omit note_key for the paginated inventory; supply an exact returned key to retrieve one. Keys retain source scope because printed markers may…

• list_provisions

  Use this to browse an EU instrument's article, annex or recital index, or enumerate its topic-tagged provisions for a coverage question. Metadata only: each item carries the exact locator get_provision accepts. Articles and annexes by default; pass kind=recital for recitals.

• search_legislation

  Use this to find EU legislative provisions on payment-services questions: strong customer authentication (SCA), dynamic linking, open banking, safeguarding and payment liability. The held corpus includes PSD2, RTS-SCA, PSD3/PSR and DORA. For exact wording use get_provision; for…

• resolve_citation

  Use this to resolve a written EU legal citation, such as Article 97(1) PSD2, into an instrument and provision locator. For a topic rather than a citation, use search_legislation. Ranked candidates with ambiguity flagged and confidence stated: exact (instrument certain, provision…

• search_defined_terms

  Use this to find which EU instruments define a legal term, such as payment transaction or payment account, and where their definitions differ. For definition wording use get_defined_term. A listing: term, definers and divergence flags, with no definition text. Matching is over…

• get_defined_term

  Use this to read and compare the held legislative definitions of a term, such as payment transaction in PSD2 and PSR. These are source definitions, not a general dictionary or a legal opinion. Every definition verbatim and resolved, clustered by what the text actually says, with…

• compare_versions

  Use this to compare an article between the Commission proposal and the Council compromise text of PSR or PSD3, within the same instrument. Serves the word-level comparison the build published: a pair is servable if and only if a diff artefact exists for it — the PSR and PSD3…

• list_version_changes

  Use this to browse which articles changed between the Commission proposal and the Council compromise text of PSR or PSD3; no comparison with a text published in the Official Journal is held. For one article's wording changes use compare_versions. Across those two texts, lists…

• search

  Use this to find EU payments legislation on topics such as SCA, open banking and safeguarding in the held PSD2, RTS-SCA, PSD3/PSR and related instruments. Simple search returning the top hits as {id, title, url}, where id is the cite anchor fetch accepts. For filters, snippets…

• fetch

  Use this to open and cite an EU legislative provision found by search. Simple retrieval of one provision's text by its cite anchor id (e.g. "psd-2 Art 97"), with citation metadata. A provision longer than the response ceiling arrives in part, with metadata.complete false and a…
