Add Bridger to Claude as a custom connector and you can use Korean public-data tools in natural language with nothing to install. Add it once on the web (claude.ai) and it’s available on the same account’s Desktop and mobile apps.
No need to edit a config file (claude_desktop_config.json) by hand — Settings → Connectors is the official way to add a remote MCP server. For the Claude Code CLI, see the dedicated guide.
1

Prepare a Bridger account

Create an account in the Dashboard. Google and GitHub sign-in are supported.
2

Open the Connectors screen

In claude.ai, go to Settings → Connectors (Customize → Connectors in the newer layout; same menu path in the Desktop app).
3

Add the custom connector

Choose Add custom connector and enter:On Team/Enterprise plans, an Owner must first register the connector under Organization settings → Connectors → Add → Custom → Web.
Once Bridger is published in the Claude connector directory, you can also find it by searching “Bridger” in the Connectors → + catalog.
4

Sign in and consent

Adding the connector starts Bridger sign-in and OAuth consent in your browser. Sign in with Google or GitHub and click Allow to finish.
5

Start using it

With the connector linked, ask about Korean public data in natural language.

Enabling more tools

Right after connecting, the tool list is limited to the default profile — search_tools, the most-used tools, and tools you enabled — to keep the client fast. Tools not in the list are still reachable: search_tools finds them with natural-language search and they can be called right away.
  • Enable tools in the Dashboard: activate the public-data APIs you need in the Dashboard; they are always included in the default profile from the next tools/list. Enable/disable changes are pushed to the client immediately as notifications/tools/list_changed notifications.
  • Full catalog (for developers): append ?activation=all to the MCP endpoint URL to receive all 230+ tools, e.g. https://mcp.bridger.kr/mcp?activation=all

​
Troubleshooting

Custom connectors are gated by plan and region. If the menu isn’t visible, check your plan — or use Claude Code or the direct API integration instead.
Some public-data APIs need your own service key. Add it under My service key in the Dashboard to enable them.
Open the Bridger connector under Settings → Connectors, disconnect it, then add it again to re-authenticate.
