ChainPulse Korea — MCP server
Korea market microstructure data for AI agents, exposed as MCP tools. No API key, no account, read-only.
Four tools, all free:
Tool | What it returns |
| Per asset on Upbit and Bithumb: KRW price, OKX USDT reference price, trade staleness, and three premiums — |
| USDT-KRW price on both Korean venues vs the ECB reference rate |
| Every KRW market currently carrying an Upbit investment caution / warning flag, with when the flag was first observed |
| New listings and delistings across the full KRW market list of Upbit and Bithumb over the last N days |

Data sources
Upbit public API (
market/all,ticker) — KRW markets, caution/warning flagsBithumb public API (
ALL_KRW,v1/ticker) — KRW marketsOKX public API (
market/ticker) — USDT reference pricefrankfurter.app — ECB reference rates (business days only; returned with
fx_timestamp)
The upstream snapshot refreshes every 5 minutes. Responses carry snapshot_ts,
snapshot_age_s and observed_since so a caller can judge freshness.
Notes on accuracy
mapping_statusmarks assets whose symbol mapping between venues has been verified (verified) versus still under observation (candidate). Candidate assets do not get a premium figure.A token that trades in Korea but has no OKX reference price returns flags only.
A token that is not listed in Korea returns
not_listed_in_korea.stale_ticker/stale_ticker_inferredmark venues whose last trade is old.
Listing-change detection polls the open market list every 5 minutes. It is designed for data completeness, not for announcement-speed alerting — a dedicated news bot will usually be faster. Use it to check what changed, not to front-run an announcement.
