Overview
Wraps 42 Korean Ministry of Government Legislation (법제처) Open APIs into 10 MCP tools covering statutes, precedents, administrative rules, ordinances, treaties and interpretations across 23 decision domains. It also checks citations in AI-written legal answers against the official database, flagging missing articles, title mismatches and repealed laws. It runs as a hosted endpoint or locally via npm, and includes a CLI.
Who it is for: Developers and legal staff using AI assistants with Korean law
Strengths
verify_citations checks cited articles and cases against the official DB, with the valid article range
Hosted endpoint needs no install; local npm install and CLI are also supported
42 APIs folded into 10 tools, keeping the tool list small in client context
Point-in-time lookup, version diffs and amendment comparison tables for statutes
Weaknesses
Korean law only; README and tool output are mostly in Korean
Keyless use of the public server shares one rate limit across all users
Local install requires a 법제처 OC key and Node.js 20.19 or newer
Depends on live 법제처 and taxlaw.nts.go.kr servers; no bundled data
