You deploy an MCP server that bridges Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and Cursor to Naver’s Korean data ecosystem. It lets you search Shopping, Cafe, News, and Blog content directly through MCP clients, providing localized, real-time results that other search engines may miss.

How to use

You can access Shopping, Cafe, News, and Blog capabilities by enabling the Naver Search MCP server in your MCP client configuration. Once loaded, you can ask your client to fetch the lowest shopping prices from Naver Shopping, pull real user reviews from Naver Cafe, get real-time Korean news, and discover authentic blogger reviews.

How to install

Prerequisites: Python 3.10+ and a Naver Developers API Key with free 25,000 requests per day.

Choose the MCP client integration that matches your environment and add the appropriate MCP server configuration.

Claude Desktop: add this to your claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "naver-search": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "--with", "mcp[cli]",
        "--with", "httpx",
        "--with", "python-dotenv",
        "/YOUR/PATH/TO/mcp-server-naver-search/server.py"
      ],
      "env": {
        "NAVER_CLIENT_ID": "YOUR_ID",
        "NAVER_CLIENT_SECRET": "YOUR_SECRET"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code (CLI)

Claude Code users add this to your ~/.claude/settings.json to start the MCP server from the command line.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "naver-search": {
      "command": "sh",
      "args": [
        "-c",
        "export PATH=\"$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH\" && cd /YOUR/PATH/TO/mcp-server-naver-search && uv run --with 'mcp[cli]' --with httpx --with python-dotenv python server.py"
      ],
      "env": {
        "NAVER_CLIENT_ID": "YOUR_ID",
        "NAVER_CLIENT_SECRET": "YOUR_SECRET"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Cursor users can configure the MCP server in their Cursor settings to enable Naver Search.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "naver-search": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "--with", "mcp[cli]",
        "--with", "httpx",
        "--with", "python-dotenv",
        "/YOUR/PATH/TO/mcp-server-naver-search/server.py"
      ],
      "env": {
        "NAVER_CLIENT_ID": "YOUR_ID",
        "NAVER_CLIENT_SECRET": "YOUR_SECRET"
      }
    }
  }
}

Usage examples

After starting the MCP server, you can ask for real-time results in your client.
