Overview

What is NewsMCP?

NewsMCP is a free, real-time news MCP server that collects, clusters, and classifies events from hundreds of sources. Events are tagged by topic and geography, ranked by importance, and served via four simple MCP tools or a REST API. No API key is required.

How to use NewsMCP?

Install NewsMCP by running npx -y @newsmcp/server in your platform’s MCP configuration (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) or use the platform-specific integration commands listed in the README. For example, add to claude_desktop_config.json under mcpServers with the npx command. NewsMCP provides four tools: get_news, get_news_detail, get_topics, and get_regions.
