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

pagenumbernoTable-of-contents mode only: 1-based page number (default 1).
_apiKeystringnoYour 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.
