Tools

• check_coverage ~559 tokens
  Judge how widely and how independently a claim has been reported. Answers "is this real?" rather than returning a list. Reports the number of INDEPENDENT newsrooms — outlets that reported it themselves — separately from the number of domains that carried it, which includes syndication. A story on 2
• check_health ~200 tokens
  Check whether the NewsMCP REST API is reachable and healthy. Does not require an API token. Use when diagnosing connectivity, not for searching news. For allowances and remaining budget use `check_limits` instead. Returns: str: Health status reported by the API.
• check_limits ~434 tokens
  Report what this caller may do right now — and never spend any of it to find out. Answers the questions the `news` tool descriptions cannot: how many searches are left this hour, how far back this plan reaches, the largest `limit` it allows, how many searches may run at once, and how long to wait i

  Expand one story: full summary, classification, actors, and source links. Use this after any search, when the user wants more than the digest line for a particular story. It is the only tool that can return a story's complete source list.
• news ~3234 tokens
  Search already-synthesized news events — pre-built story digests — or fetch one by id. Each story comes with a generated headline, one-liner, abstract, key actors, and industry/event-type labels. Use it for a quick digest of what happened, for deal/incident-type or industry filtering, and for corro
