Quickstart: Run Your First Lexera Statutory Audit

Open an SSE connection and run an unauthenticated statutory audit in minutes. Free PLG tool for rapid automated compliance checks.

This guide walks you through your first end-to-end call to Lexera. You will open an SSE stream, capture a session endpoint, and dispatch a free statutory audit against UAE law. No API key is required for this tool, so you can verify the connection and response format before moving to paid workflows.

1. Open the SSE stream

   Send a GET request to https://lexera.dev/mcp-server/sse to establish a persistent Server-Sent Events connection. For the free statutory audit tool, the Authorization header is optional. For paid tools, it is required.

   const response = await fetch("https://lexera.dev/mcp-server/sse", {
     headers: { "Authorization": "Bearer lex_82bea57b8c3fd39f..." }
   });
   
   const reader = response.body.getReader();
   const decoder = new TextDecoder();
   
   while (true) {
     const { value, done } = await reader.read();
     if (done) break;
   
     const text = decoder.decode(value);
     if (text.includes("event: endpoint")) {
       const match = text.match(/data: (\/mcp-server\/messages\?sessionId=[\w-]+)/);
       const sessionUrl = `https://lexera.dev${match[1]}`;
       // Proceed to dispatch tool...
     }
   }
   
2. Capture the session endpoint

   The server streams an event: endpoint containing your session URL. Extract the sessionId from the data line. The format is:

   data: /mcp-server/messages?sessionId=<uuid>
   

   Append this path to https://lexera.dev to build your dispatch URL.

3. Dispatch a statutory audit

   POST a JSON-RPC 2.0 payload to your session URL calling lexera_local_statutory_audit. Include the contract text and target jurisdiction.

   await fetch(sessionUrl, {
     method: "POST",
     headers: {
       "Content-Type": "application/json",
       "Authorization": "Bearer lex_82bea57b8c3fd39f..."
     },
     body: JSON.stringify({
       jsonrpc: "2.0",
       id: 1,
       method: "tools/call",
       params: {
         name: "lexera_local_statutory_audit",
         arguments: {
           document_text: "Vendor contract with uncapped liability clause...",
           target_jurisdiction: "UAE"
         }
       }
     })
   });
   
4. Read the streamed result

   The POST returns HTTP 202 Accepted. The actual result is streamed back over the open SSE connection. Parse the JSON-RPC response from the SSE payload to read the audit outcome.

lexera_local_statutory_audit is part of the anonymous PLG funnel. It is free, requires no authentication, and places no wallet hold. Use it to validate connectivity and response formats before moving to paid specialist routing.
