Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant search recent worldwide news on any topic, filtered by country and language.

What you can do
typesearch is a remote MCP server that gives an assistant news search over recent coverage from outlets worldwide. According to its registry description, results can be narrowed by topic, country and language, so an assistant can pull current reporting rather than rely on its training data. The manifest lists no individual tools, so the exact operations are not documented here.
When to use it
Worth adding when an assistant needs up-to-date news or current events on a subject, or coverage from a particular country or language. Less useful for tasks that do not involve recent reporting.
Requirements
A remote streamable HTTP endpoint at the provider's API host; nothing runs locally. An API key is required and is sent as a bearer token in the Authorization header. The key is obtained from the provider's API key page, and network access to the endpoint is needed.
Before you install
The Authorization header carries a secret API key; keep it out of shared logs and configuration. Search queries and any filters are sent to the third-party provider, so avoid submitting sensitive or confidential text. The manifest declares no authentication beyond this key, and no pricing or rate limits are stated.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open typesearch in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect Authorization token credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/ai.typesearch%2Fnews/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

search_news

Search news

Search recent news on any topic across a curated index of news outlets worldwide, judged by a relevance model. Returns the matching articles: title, link, source, date, country and language, standfirst, and short excerpts in the modes that read. Use it for current events and for what outlets reported about a company, person, place or topic. Defaults: mode "fast" (US$1.40 per 1,000 searches) and the last 7 days; mode "ultra" judges headlines only, for US$1.00.

get_contents

Get article contents

Get the title, standfirst, date, source and a short verbatim excerpt (up to 25 words) of up to 10 news article URLs. With a query, the excerpt is the one about it and relevance says how much the article covers it. Never returns the full text. US$0.20 per 1,000 pages read (US$0.40 with a query); pages that fail are free.

Parametersurlsrequiredquery

find_similar

Find similar news

Find other news articles about the same story as a given article URL, across the index (the last 7 days by default). Useful to see how other outlets covered a story. US$2.20 per 1,000 calls.

Parametersurlrequireddaysmax_results

create_chart

Create a chart

Turn a question into a chart card, without thinking about chart types: the standings of the latest race, poll or election results by candidate, wins in a season, coverage over time, share of voice between names, tone, the outlets that cover a topic most, what an outlet published, a timeline of a story, the figures the articles publish (a price, a rate), or data from a custom index. It works out what the user expects (`understood`, with other readings to pass as `interpretation`), verifies every value against its source, picks the chart, the key figures and a title that states the finding, and returns an image URL (show it to the user) and an embed URL. If the exact data is not published it shows the closest thing and says so (`rung`, warnings). It costs its search (the mode it needs, per query) plus US$0.50 per 1,000 charts; the same request within 10 minutes is free.
