Overview

AI-generated overview

Hosted Webz.io segmentation server that lets an assistant count people, companies, sites, topics and sentiment in news coverage of a subject.

What you can do
  • Count people, companies, sites, topics and sentiment in news around a subject.
  • Query the hosted Webz.io news segmentation endpoint over streamable HTTP.
  • Discover available filters and tools at runtime through the server's tool listing.
  • Connect from MCP clients, agent frameworks, Gemini CLI, Kiro, n8n, Dify or Groq.
When to use it
Use it when you need aggregate figures about how a subject is covered in news — who and what is mentioned, which sites report it, and the tone — rather than raw article text. It suits research, media analysis and monitoring workflows that already rely on Webz.io data.
Requirements
A remote MCP endpoint; no local package to install. A Webz.io account with product access and credits, plus an API token sent as an Authorization bearer header, or interactive OAuth authorization for clients that support it.
Before you install
The Authorization header carries a Webz.io API token, so treat it as a secret. Webz.io product access and credits are required, and usage consumes those credits. Queries and results are handled by Webz.io's hosted service.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Webz.io News segmentation in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required 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/io.webz%2Fseg-news/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. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

Webz News Search integrations

Public SDKs for the hosted Webz.io News Search MCP server:

https://news-search-mcp.webz.io/mcp

The MCP server is the source of truth. These packages are thin clients. New filters and tools on the server show up at runtime through tools/list.

Gemini CLI

The webz-io extension connects Gemini CLI directly to seven hosted Webz.io MCP servers: News Search, News, Blogs, Forums, and the three segmentation servers. Tool schemas and OAuth settings are discovered from the live servers.

sh
gemini extensions install https://github.com/Webhose/webz-news-search

Restart Gemini CLI and use /mcp auth <server-name> to connect the products your account can access. For example: /mcp auth webz-news-search. Setup, server list, and examples.

Kiro Power

The webz-io Power connects Kiro to all seven hosted Webz.io MCP servers, with skills for public web research and content segmentation. Import packages/kiro-power from the Kiro Powers panel to connect your Webz.io account. Installation, authentication, and examples.

Webz.io product access and credits are required. Privacy Policy · Support.

Direct API client

webzio-news-search calls the News Search API (POST /api/news/context) directly with httpx, returns typed results, and ships a JSON tool schema plus run_tool() for any LLM with function calling. Use it when you do not want an MCP client or agent framework in the loop.

The n8n community node n8n-nodes-webz-news-search calls the same endpoint. The built-in n8n MCP Client Tool still talks to the hosted MCP server.

Official MCP Registry

The bundle in mcp-registry/ publishes the hosted servers to registry.modelcontextprotocol.io as io.webz/news-search, io.webz/news, io.webz/blogs, io.webz/forums, io.webz/seg-news, io.webz/seg-blogs, and io.webz/seg-forums. Aggregators such as PulseMCP and Glama ingest the official registry, so these listings propagate downstream automatically. Publishing requires a one-time DNS TXT record on webz.io — see mcp-registry/PUBLISHING.md.

Groq

No package. Groq's Responses API speaks remote MCP itself, so you pass the hosted server in tools and Groq runs tools/list and tools/call server side.

Reference implementation, runnable examples, and the groq-api-cookbook contribution bundle are in packages/groq.

n8n

Two paths:

  • Community node (n8n-nodes-webz-news-search): calls POST https://api.webz.io/api/news/context. Standalone workflows, structured article output, and optional use as an AI Agent tool.
  • Built-in MCP Client Tool (n8n/): no install step; connect an AI Agent directly to the MCP server so filters still come from tools/list at runtime.

Setup steps and importable workflow templates are in n8n/.

Apify

Not a PyPI package. The Actor is webzio/news-search. Users pay Apify. The Actor calls POST https://api.webz.io/api/news/context with one shared Webz token and writes one dataset row per article.

Docs draft: docs/apify_integration_doc.md

Dify

Not a PyPI package. Dify Marketplace installs a .difypkg plugin from packages/dify. After the listing PR is merged, search for Webz News Search on marketplace.dify.ai. Dify v1.6+ can also add https://news-search-mcp.webz.io/mcp under Tools → MCP without a plugin.
