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

Full-text search of Louisiana law BY TOPIC or keyword — “vehicular homicide”, “security deposit lessor”, “concealed handgun permit”, “wrongful death damages” — across the Revised Statutes, Civil Code, Code of Civil Procedure, Code of Criminal Procedure, Code of Evidence, Children’s Code and the Louisiana Constitution, optionally narrowed to chosen code bodies. Returns relevance-ranked sections with citation, heading, the date each was last modified, the total match count, and the doc_id to pass to louisiana_statute for full text. The engine ANDs every word, so two or three specific words outperform a sentence. Keyless; sourced live from the Louisiana State Legislature.
