## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-08-24.

- **Endpoint Security**: 51/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to connect, but we couldn't read the tool list to see what that exposes.
  - HTTPS enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port answered with HTTP 503, which proves neither a plaintext path nor enforcement.
  - The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 0/100
  - Transport check failed: declared streamable-http, but the endpoint returned HTTP 503.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 0/100
  - Schema not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's schema.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 0/100
  - Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).
- **Tool Coverage**: 0/100
  - Tool coverage not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's tools.
- **Capabilities**: 0/100
  - Capabilities not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's capabilities.

**Unverified: 4 categories.** Categories scored 0 because we could not verify them: authentication we do not have, an unreachable endpoint, or not enough scan history. We only credit what we can confirm.

## Install

## MCP tools (4)

### `search_japanese_law` (~97 tokens)

Search Japanese laws and regulations by keyword and return English-normalized metadata (law id, type, era, promulgation date, category) plus the matched Japanese text. No API key required. Japanese keywords match best; the underlying source is full-text Japanese.

Input parameters:

- `keyword` (string, required): Search term. Japanese matches the source text directly; English is best-effort.
- `limit` (integer): Max results (1-20).

### `get_law_text` (~181 tokens)

Fetch the original Japanese text of a law by its law_id or revision_id (as returned by search_japanese_law). Optionally extract a single article. Returns the authentic Japanese legal text with English-normalized metadata and the required source attribution. No API key required. Typical flow: search_japanese_law -> get_law_text.

Input parameters:

- `article` (string): Optional article number in Arabic numerals as e-Gov numbers them, e.g. "9", or "32_2" for Article 32-2. Omit to get the whole law (truncated to max_chars).
- `law_id` (string, required): law_id (e.g. "321CONSTITUTION") or revision_id from search_japanese_law results.
- `max_chars` (integer): Max characters of Japanese text to return (200-20000).

### `search_corporation` (~73 tokens)

Look up a Japanese corporation by partial name or 13-digit corporate number, returning English-keyed records (corporate number, name, address). Requires a free National Tax Agency application ID.

Input parameters:

- `corporate_number` (string): 13-digit corporate number.
- `name` (string): Partial company name (Japanese).

### `search_statistics` (~70 tokens)

Search Japanese official statistics tables (e-Stat) by keyword and return English-keyed table metadata (id, title, organization, dates). Requires a free e-Stat application ID.

Input parameters:

- `keyword` (string, required): Search term for statistics tables.
- `limit` (integer): Max results (1-20).
