Overview

AI-generated overview

A local MCP server that lets an assistant search the global news archive by keyword, with recency and language filters, and no API key.

What you can do
Search the global news archive by keyword, optionally narrowing results by recency and language filters. No other tools are documented in the supplied material.
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to look up recent news coverage on a topic across languages, or to check what has been reported recently before answering a question.
Requirements
Runs as a local process on the user's machine, installed from the npm package gdelt-mcp over stdio. No authentication, environment variables or headers are declared; Node.js is needed to run an npm package.
Before you install
Search queries are sent to an external news archive, so the topics you look up leave your machine. No credentials or write actions are declared.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Gdelt 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.
