VICP Registry MCP

A free, read-only MCP server providing live access to the U.S. Court of Federal Claims Vaccine Injury Compensation Program database. It enables AI agents to search 13,000+ case decisions, retrieve full court document text, query compensation statistics, and investigate attorney or special master track records without authentication.

Endpoint and access

No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.

Server-provided instructions

Untrusted server output shown for inspection. It is not Koskamo guidance and is excluded from knowledge search.

VICP Registry — U.S. Vaccine Injury Compensation Program case database. This server queries the same live SQLite database that powers https://vicp-registry.org: ~13,000 curated decisions of the U.S. Court of Federal Claims Office of Special Masters (1988-present), extracted from public court documents (GovInfo / CourtListener primary sources). Conventions: - Cases are identified by `package_id` (e.g. USCOURTS-cofc-1_03-vv-00654) and referred to by `petitioner_identifier` (often initials like "M.M." for minors). - `outcome` values: compensated, dismissed, denied, entitlement_granted_pending_damages, unclear, pending. - Case summaries are AI-assisted extractions from court documents and can contain mistakes; for legal or medical precision, always check the staged source text (get_case_text) or the linked PDFs. - Award-amount caveat: a small number of award_amount_usd values suffer a known extraction bug where cents were stored as dollars (values over $10,000,000 are suspect). Cross-check the case_summary or source text before citing any award over $10M. - Statistics describe this case-record dataset, NOT vaccine-safety rates in the general population. Most vaccinations never lead to a VICP claim. Typical workflow: get_filters() to see valid filter values -> search_cases() -> get_case() / get_case_text() for detail. Cite the canonical case URL (https://vicp-registry.org/case/<package_id>) when quoting a case.

search_cases
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.

Search VICP cases with structured filters. - query: free text matched against petitioner identifier, condition, package id, caption name and the AI case summary. - vaccine: canonical vaccine name (use get_filters() for valid values, e.g. "Influenza (flu)", "DTaP/DPT", "MMR", "COVID-19", "Hepatitis B"). - condition_category / outcome: exact values from get_filters(). - decision_type: how the case was decided (stipulation, proffer, reasoned, reasoned_damages, procedural, unclear). - pediatric_only uses the broad pediatric cohort definition (is_minor OR is_minor_inferred OR age<18) — strict age-only filtering undercounts pediatric cases substantially. - dates are ISO strings (YYYY-MM-DD); awards are USD integers. - sort: decision_date_desc|decision_date_asc|filed_asc|filed_desc|award_desc|award_asc - Returns total match count plus one page of compact case records with canonical URLs. Use get_case(package_id) for the full record.

get_filters
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.

List all valid filter values: canonical vaccine names (with case counts), condition categories, outcomes, special masters, and the dataset's date range. Call this before filtering so you use real values instead of guessing.

get_statistics
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.

Aggregate statistics over the case corpus, optionally filtered. group_by: vaccine | condition | outcome | year | special_master Returns per-group: total cases, compensated count, compensation rate, death count, and median award among compensated cases (awards over $10M excluded from the median due to a known unit-extraction bug). IMPORTANT framing: these describe the VICP case-record dataset, not vaccine-safety rates in the general population.
