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citations in AI-written legal answers against the official database, flagging missing articles, title mismatches and repealed laws.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

What it needs

  • no GPU
  • Docker
  • Needs 법제처 Open API (OC key), Node.js 20.19+, taxlaw.nts.go.kr
