# diaspora-mcp

## Why This Exists

Kenyans abroad navigate dual citizenship, diaspora taxation, property purchase and document verification across two legal systems at once, usually with advice that is out of date or second-hand. The cost of getting it wrong is measured in years, not shillings.

## Install

```bash
pip install diaspora-mcp
```

## Tools (6)

- **`dual_citizenship_guide`** —   
  <sub>args: current_citizenship</sub>
- **`diaspora_tax_guide`** —   
  <sub>args: residence_country</sub>
- **`kenya_homeland_investment`** —

  <sub>args: document_type</sub>

## Example

```python
from diaspora_mcp.server import dual_citizenship_guide

result = dual_citizenship_guide()
# eligibility, process, documents, common pitfalls
```

## Claude Desktop Integration

Add to `claude_desktop_config.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "diaspora-mcp": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "diaspora_mcp.server"]
    }
  }
}
```

## Data & Disclaimers

Immigration, tax and property rules change and interact with the law of your country of residence. This is orientation, not legal or tax advice — confirm with an advocate and a qualified tax adviser.

Every tool response carries a `source` field. Responses labelled `DEMO` are
illustrative reference data, not a live feed — verify against the authority
named in the response before acting on it.

## Part of the East Africa Coordination Stack

This MCP server is one of 32 tools in the Kenya coordination infrastructure.

the coordination event bus that routes signals between domains automatically.

```bash
pip install africa-coord-bus
```

All 32 servers: [pypi.org/user/gmahia](https://pypi.org/user/gmahia/)

Model-agnostic by design: closed APIs, open-weight models, and small distilled models are all first-class citizens.
