Optional clause-validation hook for jurisdiction-aware redlines
The README frames redlining around catching formatting and structural errors. The next gap, often the one a lawyer cares about most when reviewing AI-proposed edits, is whether each proposed clause is legally sound in the governing jurisdiction. Example flags:
- This indemnification clause conflicts with
Cal. Civ. Code § 2778. - This non-compete is unenforceable in California under
Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code § 16600. - This jury-trial waiver fails under FRCP 38 in federal court.

mcp-server@1.11.2 crashes on startup: imports _extractTextFromDoc from @adeu/core but allows incompatible ^1.0.0 core
Summary
@adeu/mcp-server@1.11.2 crashes on startup with a SyntaxError because it imports _extractTextFromDoc from @adeu/core, but its declared dependency range is "@adeu/core": "^1.0.0". That range happily resolves older 1.x cores that do not export _extractTextFromDoc (the symbol is internal/underscore-prefixed in those versions). When that happens the ESM import fails at load time, and MCP clients surface it only as MCP error -32000: Connection closed.

Implement DSL-Driven Querying via read_docx Tool
Category: Performance Optimization / Tool Schema
Target Component: @adeu/mcp-server
1. Problem Statement & Context
Currently, to locate and modify terms, the agent must call read_docx, which serializes and returns the entire document Part text ($8.7$KB text payload on Turn 1).
This approach has two major inefficiencies:
- Token Bandwidth Waste: Sending the full document text over multiple turns rapidly inflates conversation history costs ($>40,000$ tokens

Malformed comments.xml when creating the comments part from scratch (+ smaller findings)
Hey team, thanks for building adeu, really useful tool. I have been using it via the MCP in a Claude Code session to redline and comment Word docs, and most of it worked well. I ran into a few things that tripped me up, so I wanted to share the feedback. One real bug below, plus some smaller findings.
Bug: process_document_batch writes malformed comments.xml (undeclared w14 namespace) when adding a comment to a document that has no existing comments

Implement tool scoping/filtering to prevent LLM "Tool Bleed"
Title: feat(mcp): Implement namespace scoping or tags to prevent LLM tool bleed
Description:
The @adeu/mcp-server exposes a wide variety of tools, including document editing (read_docx, process_document_batch) and integrations (like search_and_fetch_emails, list_available_mailboxes). During long agentic document-editing workflows, if the LLM gets confused or hits a blocker, it will sometimes "hallucinate" and start calling completely unrelated tools from its schema.

feat(mcp): Add defensive parsing for stringified JSON in batch edit arrays
Description:
When using process_document_batch in agentic loops, certain LLMs (particularly Gemini 3.5 Flash) struggle with nested JSON arrays containing object unions. Instead of passing an array of objects, the model frequently falls back to "double-serialization," passing an array of stringified JSON objects.
Current Behavior: The server crashes or rejects the payload with the following error:
Error: Cannot create property '_applied_status' on string '{"type": "modify", "ta
