Our take

A genuinely remarkable open-data project: 991k+ Swiss court decisions from 1875 onward across 118 courts, all federal and cantonal legislation, a resolved citation graph, and 43 MCP tools — all CC0 data, MIT code, no API keys, with daily refresh and cryptographic provenance (Merkle root + OpenTimestamps). CI is green and commits land daily; the ambition-to-recognition ratio is the most lopsided on this list. Caveats: effectively a single-maintainer effort under an oddly named repo, and the density of the README makes onboarding harder than it should be. Essential for anyone doing Swiss legal research with an LLM; irrelevant outside that jurisdiction.
