Unlike the (classical) Kolakoski sequence on the alphabet {1, 2}, its analogue on {1, 3} can be related to a primitive substitution rule. Using this connection, we prove that the corresponding bi-infinite fixed point is a regular generic model set and thus has a pure point diffraction spectrum. The Kolakoski-(3, 1) sequence is then obtained as a deformation, without losing the pure point diffraction property.
