kakao-mcp
카카오 API를 AI 에이전트에 연결하는 MCP 서버. 지도/로컬, 다음 검색, 비전 OCR을 REST API 키 하나로 바로 사용.
Kakao's Local (Map), Search, and Vision APIs as a Model Context Protocol server — Korea's location & content stack for Claude, Cursor, and any MCP client.
왜?
한국 앱·마케팅 개발에서 매일 필요한데(주소→좌표, 주변 장소, 국내 검색, 이미지 OCR) 깔끔한 MCP가 없었어요. 유저 OAuth 없이 REST 키 하나로 즉시 돌아갑니다.
