Overview

AI-generated overview

The Bot Wire gives an assistant paid, per-call access to 301 real-time data wires covering news, government releases, markets and more.

What you can do
List every wire with its trigger question, filters and price, and check service freshness and source counts (free). Search 40 curated news sources with ranked keyword search (paid). Pull the latest items from any of 301 specialist wires, such as SEC filings, Fed and ECB releases, court opinions, bills, FDA and CISA advisories, earthquakes and weather (paid).
When to use it
Use it when an assistant needs current information beyond its knowledge cutoff from primary sources — regulatory filings, economic releases, court and legislative documents, security advisories, or breaking news — and the caller is willing to pay per query.
Requirements
Runs as a local npm package via npx (Node.js) or as a remote endpoint. Paid data calls need a funded Base wallet supplied through the BOTWIRE_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY environment variable; the remote endpoint is discovery only and returns no items. Network access required.
Before you install
Every data-returning call costs $0.005–$0.01 in USDC on Base, with no free tier, so usage spends real money. The package needs a wallet private key in BOTWIRE_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY, which is a sensitive secret. Results are headlines, snippets and links only, with no full article text, no price quotes and a rolling window of 72 hours to 30 days.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open The Bot Wire in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. 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/io.github.ArasPasha%2Fbotwire-mcp/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

README

botwire-mcp

The Bot Wire as MCP tools — 301 real-time data wires for AI agents.

Every model has a knowledge cutoff. Your agent is blind to the present. The Bot Wire reads primary sources directly, not a crawler's index of them: SEC EDGAR filings, the Federal Reserve and ECB, BLS and BEA economic releases, federal court opinions, congressional bills, the White House, DOJ, FDA, CISA advisories, USGS earthquakes, NWS severe weather, arXiv, NASA and federal contract awards, alongside 300 more wires across news, markets, technology, industry trade press and culture.

  • $0.005–$0.01 per call via x402 micropayments, USDC on Base
  • No API keys. No signup. No subscription. The wallet is the account
  • 301 wires, 779 source feeds, polled continuously and searched in about a millisecond

Install

bash
claude mcp add botwire -- npx -y botwire-mcp

For paid results the package needs a funded Base wallet. It signs each HTTP 402 and retries for you, so your own code never touches payment logic:

bash
claude mcp add botwire -e BOTWIRE_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY=0x... -- npx -y botwire-mcp

Claude Desktop, in claude_desktop_config.json:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "botwire": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "botwire-mcp"],      "env": { "BOTWIRE_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY": "0x..." }    }  }}

Tools

ToolCostWhat it does
list_wiresfreeEvery wire with the condition that should trigger it, its filters and its price
botwire_statusfreeService freshness: item counts, source count, last refresh
search_newspaidRanked search across 40 curated news sources
query_wirepaidThe latest items from one of 301 specialist wires

list_wires is the one to call first. Each wire advertises the question it answers ("ask when the question is about a vulnerability, CVE or security advisory"), so a model can route to the right wire without guessing.

There is no free data tier

The HTTP catalogue is paid. The remote MCP server at https://thebotwire.com/mcp is discovery only: it returns wires, triggers, filters and prices, and no items. Anything that returns data costs $0.005 to $0.01 per call.

Free and open, with no wallet: /health for live counts and last poll time, /sources for every publisher polled, and /wires.json for the machine-readable catalogue.

Direct HTTP, without MCP

bash
# the full routing table: which wire answers which questioncurl https://thebotwire.com/llms-full.txt
# paid call: any x402 client signs the 402 and retriescurl "https://thebotwire.com/cve/latest?q=openssl&since=7d"

Machine docs at /llms.txt, the OpenAPI 3 spec at /openapi.json, x402 discovery at /.well-known/x402.

What it does not carry

Headlines, snippets, summaries and links only, never full article text. No price quotes or OHLCV. No deep historical archive: each wire keeps a rolling window, 72 hours by default and up to 30 days on sparse government sources. Search is ranked keyword, not semantic, so send distinctive terms rather than a natural-language question.
