Indiana Code vs New Jersey Code
A side-by-side look at the Indiana Code and New Jersey Code MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Indiana Code for legal work as a local process; choose New Jersey Code for legal as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.

Tools & capabilities
Indiana Code tools 2
in_code_sectionGet the FULL TEXT of a section of the Indiana Code — Indiana state law — by citation, plus when it was added or amended. "IC 9-21-5-5" is an oversized-vehicle speed limit (traffic, Title 9); "IC 32-31-3-6" defines "rent" in the landlord-tenant chapter (Title 32). An ARTICLE ("IC 24-16") or CHAPTER ("IC 24-16-4") reference also works — it returns that group's own section list (citation + heading for each) instead of failing, so you can pick the right one and call this again for its full text. Pass `year` (e.g. 2020) to retrieve a historical annual edition instead of the current code — Indiana publishes a separate archived edition per year. Keyless. Use for "what does Indiana Code 9-21-5-5 say" or to check an Indiana statute a lease, ticket, or case relies on.in_code_searchSearch the Indiana Code BY TOPIC or keyword rather than citation — "traffic oversized vehicle permit", "landlord retaliatory eviction", "concealed handgun license". Returns ranked sections with their citations across all 37 Indiana Code titles; use in_code_section afterward for the full text of one. Full-text search, so it answers questions no citation lookup can. Keyless.
