MCP connectors: from connection to your first question

Connect, then ask naturally. MCP connectors let MonoGPT look up legislation, statistics, qualifications and jobs through external services.

Individual MCP guides

Connect → enable → choose a selection mode → ask. If connected, start by enabling.

Deployed Korean UI at 3× resolution, with demo connection states and no account details or existing chats. Select an image for its original size.

1. Select the MCP connectors button

Sign in at MonoGPT chat. Below the message field, select the labeled MCP connectors button beside the model and reasoning controls. The composer also has attachment, search, voice and send tools.

Tools vary by model, account and screen width. On mobile, find the same labeled MCP button.

2. Find the MCP you need

Search for a name or topic, such as legislation, KOSIS, or national qualifications. The category selector can narrow the list.

Information	Connector	Coverage
Legislation and policy	Korean legislation	Current legislation, provisions, judgments, administrative rules and local ordinances
Statistics	KOSIS national statistics	Population, prices, employment and regional statistics
Qualifications and careers	HRDK national qualifications, overseas employment, NCS job classifications and others	Exam dates, fees, overseas vacancies and job classifications
Economic indicators	Bank of Korea ECOS	Statistical tables, items, rates and time series
Corporate disclosures	DART	Company search, filings and consolidated/separate financial statements
Market data	KRX	Daily indices and KOSPI/KOSDAQ stock prices
Patents	KIPRIS	Korean patent/utility searches and application details
Public procurement	Nara Jangteo	Standard bid, award and contract listings

Captured from the current UI components at 3× resolution, using example disconnected states.

HRDK has separate connectors for different purposes. Choose national qualifications for exams and overseas employment for job postings. Coming-soon entries can be favorited, but cannot yet be connected or selected for chat.

Start on Available. Provider logos identify each card. All and Coming soon include planned connections.

MonoGPT manages API credentials for legislation, ECOS, DART, KRX, KIPRIS and Nara Jangteo. You do not need to enter a personal API key. If a card says authentication setup is required, contact the service administrator.

12 cards per page: use Next, search or categories. Naver Search and the dictionary need operator credentials. KISTI is Coming soon, pending usage terms and credentials.

3. Connect after reviewing the notice

Open Connect on the card. Review the information-sharing notice, check the consent box and select Agree and connect. Success shows Connected.

Required search terms and query conditions are sent to that provider. Connection states shown are examples.

Personal connections belong to your account. Administrators manage shared organization connections; members select them for chat. Authentication setup required means an operator must configure provider credentials.

4. Enable usage and choose a selection mode

Turn on Use connectors in chat to start in Automatic selection. The AI chooses up to three connected MCPs for the question, and makes no lookup when none is needed. Check actual activity above the answer.

To choose for yourself, switch to Manual selection, then check the desired card. Its name appears above the list. Close the panel and ask your question. The AI uses selected lookup tools when relevant.

The composer button shows MCP automatic or a selected count such as MCP 1. Select it again to change settings.

Connected does not automatically mean enabled in chat. Check each state separately.

State	Meaning
Connected	The external service has been connected.
Usage switch ON	Connector use is enabled for the current chat.
Automatic selection	The AI chooses up to three relevant connections.
Manual selection checkbox	This MCP is selected for the AI in this conversation.
Star	Saved in Favorites; this does not select it for chat.

For Manual selection, start with 1–3 connectors; the limit is 5 MCPs / 40 tools. Check the switch and selections again after reloading or switching accounts or organizations.

5. Try these conversations

Adapt these prompts to your task. State the subject, period and desired output. These are suggested questions, not captured answers or guaranteed results.

Legislation: find evidence for a policy review

Select Korean legislation.

Statistics: compare numbers with their definitions

Select KOSIS national statistics.

Compare the most recently published employment rates for Seoul and Busan on the same basis. Include the reference period, units, statistical table name and source link.

Follow up with:

Check: HRDK covers exams administered by the Human Resources Development Service of Korea. Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry exams, including word processing and computer utilization, are not included. Confirm dates and requirements in the official notice before applying.

Economic, company, patent and procurement questions

Connect the provider, enable Use connectors in chat, and select its card in manual mode.

• ECOS: “Compare the last 12 months of consumer price indices with periods, units and source tables.”
• DART: “Find Samsung Electronics’ latest annual consolidated revenue and operating profit, including the year, currency and filing link.”
• KRX: “Compare KOSPI and KOSDAQ closing values and daily changes on the latest trading day.”
• KIPRIS: “Find forest-monitoring patents and list their titles, application numbers and registration status.”
• Nara Jangteo: “List yesterday’s bid notices with titles, agencies and deadlines.”

Specify the financial year and consolidated/separate basis for DART, and the trading day for KRX. KRX data is daily, not real-time; holidays may return no rows. Procurement uses the approved standard API: bids and contracts support up to seven days per call, and awards one day. Results are paginated listings, not a keyword search over every notice.

Try the newly added connectors

• Public Data Lens: “Compare forestry datasets and quality evidence.” Catalogue and structure metadata only.
• Hankookilbo: “List today's main news with dates and links.” Metadata and excerpts; no full articles.
• KR-Bid: “Find forestry bids and attachment requirements.” Public reads only; no OAuth bookmarks or alerts.

6. Save frequent connectors in Favorites

Use a card’s star to find it again in Favorites. In Manual selection, Selected shows only the connectors checked for the current chat.

Three starred connectors and one chat selection are separate states. Favorites do not enable automatic lookups.

Favorites are stored in the current browser, separated by account and organization. They do not automatically sync to other browsers or devices. Clear a card checkbox or turn off the switch to stop using it.

7. Troubleshoot a connection

Open Connection management → Recheck connection. If it fails, read the feedback before trying again.

Situation	What to check
Connected, but no lookup	Check the switch and selection mode; manual mode also needs a card checked. The AI queries only when relevant.
Disabled checkbox	Check usage, connection state, whether the service was disabled, and organization permissions.
Unsupported model or mode	Switch to a model and regular chat mode that support connectors.
Authentication setup required	Provider credentials require operator setup. Contact your administrator.
Check needed or recheck failed	Recheck the connection. Retry later if the provider is unavailable.
No matching information	Specify region, period, law or qualification more precisely. Do not request invented figures.

These pilot services depend on provider availability and update schedules. Check the source links and reference dates in the answer.

8. Connect your own MCP server

Open Connect an MCP server · Manage my connections → Add server. Enter a name, HTTPS address and, if required, the supplied Bearer token. Review the notice and select Check connection and save.

Personal and shared organization connections have different scopes. Check which scope is shown.

Direct connections support Streamable HTTP with JSON or SSE responses, but not legacy SSE-only servers, stdio or OAuth login. Check compatibility, then follow step 4 to enable and select the connection.
