This skill scrapes the official Joseon Dynasty Annals site (sillok.history.go.kr) to search historical records from Korea's 1392-1910 kingdom. You give it a keyword like "훈민정음" (Hunminjeongeum) and optionally filter by king or year, and it parses the search results HTML plus article detail pages to return excerpts in both classical Chinese and Korean translation. It's pure web scraping with a Python helper script, no API keys or embeddings. Useful if you're researching Korean history and want to pull primary source material directly from the National Institute of Korean History's database without clicking through their web interface manually. The v1 scope is intentionally narrow but functional.
