  Track every document added or changed in one RIS application within an exact date window (changed_from/changed_to), optionally including deletions (include_deleted) — the delta-sync and monitoring primitive for mirrors and watchers, and the only surface that reports removals. Unlike the search tools’ coarse, additive-only changed_since intervals, this is exact-dated and deletion-aware. application accepts every RIS application code listed by ris_list_reference topic applications, including BrKons, LrKons, Dsk, and BgblAuth. Each changed document comes back in a compact cross-class record — document_number (for ris_get_document), title, dates, binding_status, and rendition URLs — plus its last-changed date; removed documents come back as deleted records with a deletion timestamp. One application per call; page explicitly for large windows.

  Fetch one RIS document’s full text or its rendition URLs, with explicit binding status and the amtssigniert authentic PDF surfaced wherever it exists. Address the document exactly one of two ways: document_number plus application (both copied verbatim from a ris_search_* or ris_lookup_citation result), or a document_url from a result’s content_urls — or, for a draft’s companion documents (Erläuterungen, Textgegenüberstellung, WFA, cover letter, annexes), a ris_search_drafts record’s materials[].url, which is the only route to them. format: markdown (default — the HTML rendition converted to markdown), html (raw HTML rendition), xml (the RIS Nutzdaten XML), or urls_only (no fetch — every rendition URL, including the Authentisch PDF). Format availability varies by application and the tool degrades explicitly, never silently: consolidated law, gazettes, case law, drafts, and most sectoral collections carry full text; district and municipal promulgations and court rules (Bvb, GrA, KmGer) publish only the signed authentic PDF; party-transparency decisions and council minutes (Upts, Mrp) are PDF-only; the 1848–1940 imperial gazettes (BgblAlt) are metadata-only — for these a text-format request returns a format_unavailable notice with the usable URL, not an error. Every result carries binding_status; only authentic (amtssigniert) publications are legally binding. This tool returns content, not fresh metadata — the metadata rides the search/lookup step that produced the document number. When the markdown text overflows the 40,000-byte budget the tool returns an outline (kind: outline) instead of truncating: the document’s §/Artikel/Anlage sections where it carries at least two such headings, otherwise contiguous byte windows named Part 1 of N … Part N of N covering the whole text and listed in document order. Re-call with sections:[…] naming outline entries to retrieve just those; a name matching no entry returns the outline again with a notice rather than the whole document. Windows are cut at line breaks, not at sentence or § boundaries, so one can open mid-sentence — read them in order and pull the neighbour when a passage straddles a cut. Raw html and xml renditions are never sliced: at or under the 40,000-byte budget they return whole; over it the result is kind: link — no text, truncated: true, the full byte_size, and content_urls, whose html or xml entry fetches the whole artifact in one GET. Every HTML rendition opens with a 40–70 KB stylesheet, so html practically always returns kind: link — read with markdown, parse with xml, and fetch content_urls.html for the authentic markup. Markdown drops the screen-reader expansions RIS ships alongside each abbreviated citation, keeping the visible citation form; raw html/xml renditions are returned exactly as published.

  Resolve a single Austrian legal citation to its canonical RIS document deterministically — no keyword search. Four routes are auto-detected from the citation shape (or forced with kind): a norm citation — section-first ("§ 6 DSG", "Art 10 B-VG"), abbreviation-first ("DSG §1", "DSGVO Art32", the shape ris_search_case_law returns in norms_cited), or a bare abbreviation like "ABGB" — resolves through consolidated federal law, or a Bundesland with a state hint, as in force today or on in_force_as_of; a gazette citation ("BGBl. I Nr. 165/1999", pre-2004 "BGBl. Nr. 194/1961", imperial "RGBl. Nr. 189/1902", or "LGBl. Nr. 61/2026" with a state hint) routes to the right federal era tier by year, or to a state Landesgesetzblatt — falling back to that Bundesland’s pre-e-Recht series when the citation predates its switch; a case number ("Ro 2026/03/0016", "G 287/2022", "14Os49/26a", "2025-0.934.677", "W256 …") is matched to its court — pass court to skip detection, and ambiguous formats probe up to two courts; a collection number ("VfSlg 19.632/2012", "VwSlg 18.000 A/2010") resolves through the VfGH/VwGH collection — a VwSlg cite given without its part letter can name one decision in each of the two VwGH series, and comes back as ambiguous with both cites named rather than resolved to one of them. Returns the single best-matching document in the same shape as the corresponding search tool, with alternatives_count when more than one matched. A citation that cannot be classified or resolved returns found: false with next-step guidance — it never throws for a miss; only an upstream RIS outage is an error. For keyword rather than citation lookup, use ris_search_legislation or ris_search_case_law.

Nr. 61/2026" with a state hint) routes to the right federal era tier by year — the 1945 Staatsgesetzblatt sits in the 1945–2003 tier beside the BGBl. — or to a state Landesgesetzblatt — falling back to that Bundesland’s pre-e-Recht series when the citation predates its switch; a case number ("Ro 2026/03/0016", "G 287/2022", "14Os49/26a", "2025-0.934.677", "W256 …") is matched to its court — a leading VfGH, VwGH, OGH, BVwG, or DSB names it ("VfGH G 13/2025"), court skips detection, and ambiguous formats probe up to two courts; an ECLI ("ECLI:AT:VFGH:2026:G13.2025") resolves to the decision that carries it; a collection number ("VfSlg 19.632/2012", "VwSlg 18.000 A/2010") resolves through the VfGH/VwGH collection — a VwSlg cite given without its part letter can name one decision in each of the two VwGH series, and comes back as ambiguous with both cites named rather than resolved to one of them. Matches are ranked before one is picked: a norm resolves to the hit whose abbreviation is the cited one, then the cited one plus a year ("EStG" → EStG 1988), the exact §/Artikel label ahead of a prefixed one ("§ 1" before "Art. 2 § 1"); a case number resolves to the decision text, then to a Rechtssatz that decision leads; a gazette cite resolves only to an entry of the gazette it names (StGBl. and BGBl. share numbers in 1945, as the older gazettes do in their changeover years); and a "BGBl. Nr." cite without its part that matches more than one of parts I/II/III (from 1997 they reuse numbers) comes back as ambiguous with each part named. Returns the single best-matching document in the same shape as the corresponding search tool, with alternatives_count when more than one matched. A citation that cannot be classified or resolved returns found: false with next-step guidance — it never throws for a miss; only an upstream RIS outage is an error. For keyword rather than citation lookup, use ris_search_legislation or ris_search_case_law.

  Search Austrian case law (Judikatur) in ONE court or tribunal per call — court is required: vfgh (Constitutional Court), vwgh (Supreme Administrative Court), justiz (ordinary courts incl. OGH, selected decisions), bvwg (federal administrative), lvwg (state administrative), dsk (data protection authority), normenliste (VwGH norm index), dok, pvak, gbk, verg, upts (party transparency), and the historical uvs, asylgh, ubas, umse, bks. Cross-court research is one call per court (calls are cheap); historical bodies are closed windows with successors — codes, windows, and Geschäftszahl examples: ris_list_reference topic courts. Filter by full-text query, cited norm ("DSG §1", "DSGVO Art32" — the highest-value filter), exact case_number (Geschäftszahl), decision date range, decision_type (headnote vs full text), decision_kind, or the court-conditional filters: issuing_body (dsk/dok/pvak/verg), court_name/legal_area/subject_area (justiz), state (lvwg/uvs), party (upts), commission/senate/discrimination_ground (gbk), subject_law (bks), collection_number (vfgh/vwgh/uvs). For a known Geschäftszahl or VfSlg/VwSlg cite, ris_lookup_citation resolves it directly.

  Search Austria’s sectoral official gazettes and executive documents — seven collections behind one collection enum: social_insurance (Amtliche Verlautbarungen der Sozialversicherung, authentic), veterinary (Amtliche Veterinärnachrichten, authentic), court_rules (Kundmachungen der Gerichte — rules of procedure and case-allocation plans, authentic; currently LVwG Tirol and Vorarlberg only), trade_exam_rules (Prüfungsordnungen gemäß Gewerbeordnung, authentic), health_structure_plans (Strukturpläne Gesundheit — federal ÖSG and per-state RSG, authentic), ministerial_decrees (Erlässe der Bundesministerien — decrees interpreting law; bind the administration, not citizens), and council_minutes (Ministerratsprotokolle — council-of-ministers session records). Each collection accepts a different filter set: query and title are broadly available; number, published_from/to, in_force_as_of, issuer (ministry abbreviations expanded), norm ("decrees citing the DSG"), case_number, type, department, plan_type/plan_state (health plans), and session_number/legislature (council minutes) apply where the collection supports them — a filter outside its set is rejected locally. Every result carries a binding label, the authentic PDF where it exists, and the RIS web view (document_url) — the only browsable surface for the PDF-only council minutes and for ministerial decrees. Per-collection parameter matrix and issuers: ris_list_reference topic collections or issuing_bodies.
