README

News MCP Server for AI Agents | NewsAI

A news intelligence layer for MCP clients - not just a thin wrapper around search or RSS.

NewsAI is a news MCP server that gives Claude, Cursor, VS Code Copilot, Windsurf, and any MCP-compatible AI agent instant access to real-time headlines and detailed news retrieval across 7 global regions, multiple languages, and any topic.

If you are looking for a serious news MCP, this is built for production agent workflows: no scraping, no RSS parsing, no brittle site adapters - just a single MCP endpoint with structured tools that work out of the box.

Want to see it in action? Try it live at app.newzai.ai.

What This MCP Actually Does

Most "news MCP" offerings are thin wrappers around generic search or a single feed. NewsAI is positioned differently: MCP is the interface, but the product value is the news retrieval layer behind it.

Instead of forcing agents to browse raw pages or depend on vague web search results, NewsAI lets them ask for:

Top headlines for a specific region
Topic coverage from a predefined category like TECHNOLOGY or BUSINESS
Custom-topic retrieval for any keyword or theme
Recency-constrained news using last_n_hours
Multilingual retrieval using standard language codes

That makes it useful as an agent-facing news intelligence layer for assistants, research systems, market monitoring, and live RAG pipelines.

Why NewsAI Is Different

Capability	Thin news wrapper	NewsAI
MCP-native tool interface	Partial	Yes
Region-specific news retrieval	Usually limited	Yes
Language parameterization	Rare	Yes
Recency filtering	Usually no	Yes
Predefined category retrieval	Usually no	Yes
Arbitrary topic search	Partial	Yes
Structured agent-ready outputs	Inconsistent	Yes
OAuth onboarding for interactive clients	Rare	Yes

Architecture

AI Agent / MCP Client
        |
        v
NewsAI MCP Server (Streamable HTTP)
        |
        +-- Google OAuth session
        +-- Tool selection + parameter validation
        +-- Region / language / topic / recency controls
        v
NewsAI retrieval layer
        |
        v
Structured news results for the agent

The important point is that MCP is the delivery mechanism, not the entire product. The server exposes a compact, agent-usable tool surface on top of a live news retrieval system that already understands regional scope, topic intent, and freshness constraints.

Quick Setup

Add the NewsAI news MCP server to your MCP client configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "newzai": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.newzai.ai/mcp/"
    }
  }
}

Authentication required - Uses Google OAuth. You will be prompted to sign in on first use. No API key management needed for interactive clients.

Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code Copilot, Windsurf, and any MCP-compatible client.

Supported Coverage

NewsAI's MCP server currently supports:

7 regions: India, United States, United Kingdom, Japan, Australia, Canada, Germany
Multilingual retrieval: English, Japanese, German, Hindi, and more via language codes
Two retrieval modes: predefined categories and fully custom topic search
Freshness controls: latest headlines or time-bounded search using last_n_hours

Supported region slugs: india, united-states, united-kingdom, japan, australia, canada, germany
