Common questions

Is koreanpulse safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.11) reached the registry 5 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

koreanpulse

Korean stock disclosures, activist filings & foreign-holder flows in English — for AI agents via MCP.

Korean stock market intelligence for AI assistants. koreanpulse is an MCP server that connects ChatGPT / Claude / Cursor / FastMCP agents to Korean (KRX / KOSPI / KOSDAQ) equity data — track DART corporate disclosures as they are filed, monitor foreign investor holding changes and activist investor campaigns, and search classified Korean industry news, all in English. Data and intelligence only — not buy/sell recommendations.

The goal: get pinged in English when a 5%-rule filing or DART event hits a stock you care about. (Beta — watchlist polling + alert dispatch are planned and not yet available; what works today is on-demand queries.)

The pitch: koreanpulse translates, tags, and filters Korean primary-source disclosure data — foreign-holder 5%-rule disclosures, Korean activist filings, major DART events — for AI assistants. KRX itself, ASIFMA, and several global asset managers are on record that Korean disclosure flow into English is structurally thin. Free public daily snapshot at /today; paid Cloud tiers (Solo $29/mo, Analyst $79/mo, Desk $249/mo) cover the two allowlist-tagging tools, which run only on the hosted service and are unavailable while it is paused since 2026-09-21 — watchlist polling + alert dispatch are planned and not yet available; early subscribers keep their signup rate when those land. OSS self-host available for hackers — see Run it yourself.

For AI/MCP agent builders. koreanpulse plugs Korean equity primary sources into your existing Claude Desktop / Cursor / FastMCP agent — same MCP shape your agent already uses for US data. Two connection modes: (a) `pip install koreanpulse` + 4-line config for Claude Desktop / Cursor stdio, (b) [Smithery](https://smithery.ai/servers/whdrnr2583/koreanpulse) marketplace listing for Smithery CLI users. The first-party hosted remote MCP endpoint (https://mcp.koreanpulse.dev/mcp) has been paused since 2026-09-21; use the self-hosted install, which runs the 5 free tools (the 2 license-gated tools, activist and foreign-holder tagging, run only on the hosted service). The 7 tools surface DART filings, foreign-holder 5%-rule flows, Korean activist filings, and 16-sector industry news as typed function calls; the rest of your trading-agent stack stays unchanged.

Claude.ai / ChatGPT (remote MCP) — hosted endpoint paused. The first-party hosted endpoint https://mcp.koreanpulse.dev/mcp has been paused since 2026-09-21 and does not respond, so it cannot be added as a custom connector right now. Use the self-hosted install instead: pip install koreanpulse and the Claude Desktop / Cursor config in docs/SELF_HOSTING.md (you supply your own DART API key; this covers the 5 free tools, since the 2 license-gated tools run only on the hosted service). The free public /today snapshot at koreanpulse.dev is unaffected. Read-only — surfaces filings and disclosures only. No trading execution, no investment advice.

What this server answers (capability vector for agent retrieval). Korean DART (전자공시) filings on any KOSPI / KOSDAQ / KONEX / KRX ticker; 5%-rule shareholding disclosures tagged against a maintained allowlist — Korean activist filers (KCGI / Align Partners / Truston Asset / Anda Asset / Cha Partners / VIP Asset / Life Asset / Platform Partners / Must Asset Management / Dalton Investments / Flashlight Capital Partners / Oasis Management / Palliser Capital / Whitebox Advisors / City of London Investment Management + ValueAct / Elliott when filing in Korea) and global foreign holders (BlackRock / Vanguard / State Street / Fidelity / Capital Group / T. Rowe Price / Wellington / Matthews Asia / Templeton / Aberdeen / Schroders / Norges Bank / GIC / Temasek / Goldman Sachs / JPMorgan / Morgan Stanley / Citadel / Millennium / Bridgewater); Korean industry news across 16 sectors (semiconductor / shipbuilding / battery / biotech / defense / auto / EV charging / AI / steel / petrochem / construction / fintech / gaming / e-commerce / telco / energy) sourced from 전자신문 + 한국경제 + The Korea Herald (English-native) + 지디넷코리아. All with on-demand English translation cached server-side. Tool catalog and example queries are also returned by koreanpulse_about for agent-side capability discovery.


Status

Pre-alpha (v0.1.13). 7 MCP tools shipped — 5 free + 2 license-gated (activist + foreign-holder allowlist tagging, Solo $29/mo+; these two run only on the hosted service, which is paused since 2026-09-21). 418 tests pass. Beta — watchlist polling + alert dispatch are planned and not yet available. Beta acquisition plan in docs/BETA.md.


Why I built this

I'm a Seoul-based developer. I kept watching English-speaking friends miss the Korean disclosure that would have flipped their KOSPI trade — KCGI filing on a value-up target, BlackRock crossing 5% on an HBM name, an activist quietly accumulating. The Korean primary source (DART 전자공시) is unambiguous; English coverage is often hours late or absent. I wanted a thing they could plug into the chat assistant they already use, ask "anything new on Samsung Electronics?", and get the same answer I'd get reading DART directly. That's koreanpulse.

I run it as MCP because that's the shape of stack the people I'd want to use this already have — Claude Desktop, Cursor, the OpenAI Responses API, ChatGPT custom connectors. No new client to install. Free tier is the daily snapshot and the five free tools; the two license-gated tools (5%-rule allowlist tagging on activists and foreign holders) are the part that takes a Korean speaker hours to do by hand.


Why this exists

"Majority of foreign investors find it surprisingly difficult to penetrate the Korean hedge fund market due to its limited accessibility and availability of information in foreign language." — *HedgeVista, 2025*

"Published information should be made available in both Korean and English for all investors." — *ASIFMA Korean Capital Markets Report, 2022*

"The Korea Exchange will provide investor relations services to companies that lack the capability, particularly in English." — *Wellington Management on Korea Value-Up program, 2025*

The English-IR gap is multi-source verified. The triggers below sit on top of it:

  • Broker access keeps widening — Hana Securities × Futu launched Korean stock trading for Futu's Hong Kong retail customers (April 2026), and Samsung Securities × Interactive Brokers launched a pilot (May 2026)
  • KOSPI has been under review for MSCI Developed Market reclassification — one reason global investors track Korean market-access changes
  • IRC (Investor Registration Certificate) requirement abolished 2023-12-14, removing the decades-old registration step for foreign investors' direct KRX access
  • Millennium made its first Korean allocation ($250M to Billionfold) in 2025
  • Korean activist scene maturing (KCGI, Align Partners) + global activists filing in Korea (ValueAct, Elliott)
  • Korean shipbuilding, HBM, defense, biotech all globally relevant — but Korean-only sourcing
  • Korean retail rotated heavily out of crypto into KOSPI ($110B left Upbit/Bithumb in 2025)
  • Bloomberg/FactSet enterprise tier only — indie/SMB tier empty

Pricing

🚧 Beta. Solo $29 / Analyst $79 / Desk $249. Checkout is closed while the hosted service is paused (since 2026-09-21); plan names and prices are kept below for when it resumes. Once the hosted service resumes, a paying user receives immediately: the two license-gated allowlist-tagging tools, hosted translation, and the metered query cap (2K / 15K / 100K). Watchlist polling, alert dispatch, seat enforcement, and per-tier retention windows are planned and not yet available — until they ship, seat counts, watchlist counts, alert-channel limits, and archive-retention windows are paper limits, and most tier differentiation is roadmap. Early subscribers keep their signup rate when those features land. The hosted service has been paused since 2026-09-21, so the two license-gated tools are currently unavailable to everyone, license holders included.
