Overview

AI-generated overview

Read-only MCP server that lets an assistant list, fetch and search AI Daily Insights, a Chinese daily AI-industry briefing, as structured news items.

What you can do
  • List recent issues with dates, titles, summaries, tags and URLs, or pull the newest issue in one call
  • Fetch a single issue by date, or every issue in a date range, parsed into news items
  • Find issues by tag and run full-text plus tag search across all news items
  • Query financing reports by investor, sector, country, type, amount and date, and view a company's financing timeline
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to summarize or track Chinese AI-industry news and startup financing without scraping HTML, for example a daily briefing or a company funding timeline.
Requirements
Runs locally over stdio, typically via npx, and needs Node.js 20 or newer. No API key or account; it reads public JSON endpoints of the AI Daily Insights site. Optional environment variables AI_DAILY_BASE_URL and AI_DAILY_CACHE_TTL_MS change the site origin and cache lifetime.
Before you install
By default each tool call sends a best-effort background event to the site containing the tool name and package version, with no arguments, queries or identifiers; set AI_DAILY_ANALYTICS=0 to disable it. Requests still carry a package/version User-Agent. Financing data is CC BY 4.0 and requires crediting the source and linking the deal URL.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Ai Daily Insights Mcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

README

ai-daily-insights-mcp

A Model Context Protocol server for AI Daily Insights — a daily AI briefing built for both humans and agents.

It lets any MCP-capable assistant (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, …) list, read and search the daily AI news, fully structured — no HTML scraping.

Aggregate usage and privacy (0.4.4+)

Each entered tool handler sends a best-effort background event to the configured AI_DAILY_BASE_URL (the public site by default). It contains only the tool name and package version: no arguments, search queries, results, session IDs or user identifiers. The hosting infrastructure still sees standard request metadata. Events include cached calls and errors, but exclude tool discovery and rejected input schemas. They are self-reported usage, not verified AI users.

Set AI_DAILY_ANALYTICS=0 in the MCP server environment to disable these events. Data fetches still use the package/version User-Agent for HTTP attribution. Reporting never waits on the tool response path, has a 1.5-second timeout, at most 16 outstanding events and no retries; offline/shutdown/opt-out may undercount. Existing data caching is unchanged.

Tools

ToolWhat it does
get_latest()The newest issue with all its news items in one call.
list_latest(limit=5)List recent issues: date, title, summary, tags, URLs.
get_article(date)Fetch one issue (YYYY-MM-DD), parsed into news items {index, title, signal, body}.
get_range(from, to, limit=14)Every issue in a date range (e.g. the past week), fetched in parallel.
list_by_tag(tag, limit=10)Issues carrying a given tag (company/topic), matched case-insensitively.
list_financing(query, investor, sector, country, type, evidence, min_usd_m, from, to, sort, offset, limit=20)Query financing reports, with evidence and amount qualifiers.
get_company_financing(company, exact=true)Company timeline, oldest first; exact company name or slug by default.
search(query, tag, limit=10)Full-text + tag search across all news items, in one server-side call.

Data comes from the public JSON endpoints (/index.json, /{date}.json, /search) — the server is stateless and needs no API key. Responses are cached in-memory briefly (default 5 min, override with AI_DAILY_CACHE_TTL_MS) to avoid hammering the site on repeated calls.

Financing tools (v0.5.0+) read /financing/deals.json. The dataset is CC BY 4.0: credit AI Daily Insights and link the deal URL. Preserve evidence, notes and corrections. Report dates are not announcement dates; repeated coverage is not a new round; debt/credit facilities are not equity or cash received.
