No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/ca_ota_opinion_lookup for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Look up a California Office of Tax Appeals opinion by its OTA citation (e.g. “2020-OTA-263P” for a Precedential opinion, “2020-OTA-374” for a Nonprecedential one) — fetches the opinion PDF live and returns the full text, exact date issued, OTA’s internal case number, tax category, precedential status, OTA’s issue tag, and statute citations found in the text (best-effort, R&TC/Cal. Code Regs./IRC shapes). Sourced from ota.ca.gov.
