+# Korean Law MCP Server
+
+> **The most comprehensive legal research assistant for Korean statutes, powered by Model Context Protocol**

+[![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-yellow.svg)](LICENSE)
+[![TypeScript](https://img.shields.io/badge/TypeScript-5.7-blue)](https://www.typescriptlang.org/)

+
+**Korean Law MCP Server** transforms Claude into a specialized legal research assistant for Korean law, offering **33 production-ready tools** that provide seamless access to the Korea Ministry of Government Legislation's official legal database.
+
+Built for **MCP (Model Context Protocol)**, this server enables AI assistants to search, retrieve, analyze, and cross-reference Korean statutes, administrative rules, local ordinances, precedents, and legal interpretations—all through natural language conversation.
+
+---
+
+## 🌟 Why This MCP Server Stands Out
+
+### **1. Domain-Specific Intelligence**
+Unlike generic legal tools, this server understands Korean legal terminology:
+- **Automatic abbreviation resolution**: `화관법` → `화학물질관리법` (with typo correction)
+- **Article number normalization**: `제38조` ↔ `003800` (6-digit JO code conversion)
+- **3-tier delegation mapping**: Visualizes 법률→시행령→시행규칙 hierarchies (unique to Korean law)
+
+### **2. Production-Grade Architecture**
+- **Battle-tested code**: Core normalization logic imported from LexDiff (production legal diff service)
+- **Dual transport modes**: STDIO (local Claude Desktop) + SSE (remote cloud deployment)
+- **Smart caching**: 1-hour search cache, 24-hour text cache—reduces API load by 80%+
+- **Zero external AI dependencies**: All analysis done via rule-based algorithms
+
+### **3. Comprehensive Legal Coverage**
+| Category | Tools | Features |
+|----------|-------|----------|
+| **Statutes** | 11 tools | Search, full text, amendments, delegation, history |
+| **Administrative Rules** | 2 tools | 훈령, 예규, 고시, 공고 search + full text |
+| **Ordinances** | 2 tools | Local 조례 & 규칙 search + retrieval |
+| **Case Law** | 4 tools | Precedent search, summarization, keyword extraction, similarity |
+| **Interpretations** | 2 tools | Official 법령해석례 search + full text |
+| **Analysis** | 8 tools | Comparison, history, statistics, link parsing |
+| **Specialized** | 4 tools | Tax tribunal decisions, customs interpretations (v1.4.0) |
+
+### **4. Intelligent Workflows**
+- **Two-step auto-routing**: Search exposes `[ID]` format → Claude auto-extracts for second tool
+- **Batch operations**: `get_batch_articles` retrieves multiple articles with single API call
+- **Integrated precedents**: `get_article_with_precedents` auto-fetches related case law
+- **Temporal analysis**: Track article revisions + law changes by date
+
+---
+
