`search_meetings`

Pack: kokkai-diet · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/kokkai-diet/mcp

Search Japanese National Diet meetings/sittings (a meeting = one committee or plenary session on one day) by meeting name, chamber, or date range, via kokkai.ndl.go.jp. Requires at least one of “query”, “meeting_name”, or “house”. Returns each meeting’s issueID (for fetching its speeches with search_speeches or get_speech), house, meeting name, session number, issue number, date, and permalink. ${JP_FIRST_NOTE} PAGINATION: this endpoint caps results at 10 per request (default 3) — lower than search_speeches. Check “next_start_record”; a null value means this page is the end of the result set, anything else means more meetings exist.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`query`	string	no	Japanese keyword(s) matched against speech text within the meeting, partial match.
`meeting_name`	string	no	Meeting/committee name in Japanese, partial match, e.g. “予算委員会” (Budget Committee), “本会議” (plenary).
`house`	string	no	Chamber: “衆議院”, “参議院”, “両院”, or “両院協議会”.
`from`	string	no	Earliest meeting date, inclusive, YYYY-MM-DD.
`until`	string	no	Latest meeting date, inclusive, YYYY-MM-DD.
`start_record`	number	no	1-based offset for pagination (default 1). Use the previous response’s “next_start_record” to fetch the next page.
`max_records`	number	no	Results per request, 1-10 (default 3). The API rejects values outside this range — this cap is lower than search_speeches’.
