Japanese corporate lookup (法人照会): find or verify a company by name or corporate number and read its gBizINFO record (basic info, subsidies, government contracts, awards, certifications, financials, patents, workplace data).

## Good to know before installing

Sends the company names, corporate numbers and prefectures you look up to api.info.gbiz.go.jp (METI gBizINFO) with your own GBIZINFO_API_TOKEN in a request header; no other host, nothing written to disk.

From the plugin's catalog listing.

## How to install

1. Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs (this one needs `GBIZINFO_API_TOKEN`), then asks whether to turn it on.

```bash
hermes plugins install jp-corporate
```

2. Said no? Turn it on later:

```bash
hermes plugins enable jp-corporate
```

3. Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.

Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see the official page. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide: https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/plugins
