nc://jp-corporate

JP Corporate: look a Japanese corporation up in gBizINFO, the registry of Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, by name or 法人番号, and read its record. A Nodecode rewrite of TakeshiTGAL/hermes-plugin-jp-corporate by TakeshiTGAL.

Get it

Tell the agent "add the jp-corporate cell", or run nodecode add nc://jp-corporate.

Set it up

gBizINFO's REST API is free but answers only with a token of your own. Apply once at https://info.gbiz.go.jp/hojin/various_registration/form (申請区分「トークン利用(WebAPI・データダウンロード)」), open the link in the 「Web API 利用申請完了」 email, and keep that one token: the terms forbid extra tokens made to get round usage limits.

Then either export it, or write it in the cell's section of ~/.nodecode/config.jsonc:

{
  "jp-corporate": {
    "api_key": "...",          // the token from the email
    "timeout_seconds": 20
  }
}

GBIZINFO_API_TOKEN in the environment is read either way; api_key_env names another variable when the token is kept somewhere else. /jp-corporate alone says whether a token is set.

Use it

The model calls two tools:

• jp_corp_search — find a corporation by name (partial match; 株式会社, (株), ㈱, half-width kana and full-width letters are folded first), narrow by address, or look one up by corporate_number (13 digits; an invoice number such as T1180301018771 also works). Given a number plus a name or an address, the answer says whether they match the official record.
• jp_corp_profile — one corporation's record by number, section by section (each section is one request): basic, subsidy, procurement, commendation, certification, finance, patent, workplace, offices.

From the shell, /jp-corporate トヨタ自動車 runs one search, /jp-corporate 1180301018771 looks one number up, and /jp-corporate alone reports the endpoint and whether the token is set.

Every answer carries the credit line gBizINFO's terms ask for (出典：「Gビズインフォ」（経済産業省）). registered means the registration is not closed, not that the business is operating; the registry holds corporations, not sole proprietors; and 0 results is not proof that a company does not exist. It does not check qualified-invoice-issuer (適格請求書発行事業者) registration — that is https://www.invoice-kohyo.nta.go.jp/.
