kr_law_article
Pack: kr-law · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)
No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/kr_law_article for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.
Fetch ONE article (조문) of a South Korean statute by mst (from kr_law_search) and article_no (e.g. “5” or “4-2” for 제4조의2). Never returns the whole law body. Omit article_no to get a paginated table of contents (article numbers + titles) instead. Returns the article’s own text, paragraphs (항) and items (호), its own effective date (which can differ from the law’s), and law-level metadata (promulgation date, effective date, ministry) kept as separate fields. BYOK: requires your own OC; pass it as _apiKey.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
mst | string | yes | Law version id (법령일련번호) from kr_law_search’s “mst” field. |
article_no | string | no | Article number, e.g. “5”, or “4-2” for a branch article (제4조의2). Omit for a table of contents. |
display | number | no | Table-of-contents mode only: entries per page, 1-200 (default 50). |
page | number | no | Table-of-contents mode only: 1-based page number (default 1). |
_apiKey | string | no | Your own OC (Open API user id) from https://open.law.go.kr/LSO/main.do. The Ministry’s public demo id “test” works here for smoke-testing. |
