Dependencies 95 packages
95 packages in the resolved dependency tree · 95 deprecated · 29 stale.
The dependency tree was only partially resolved, so these counts may be incomplete.
The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability.
get_news ~270
Get top news events happening in the world right now. Returns AI-clustered, deduplicated news stories ranked by importance. Present results as a multi-story news briefing — cover the top events, not just one. Each event should be 1-2 lines with its summary and 1-2 source links. Prioritize suppressing rich link cards/previews over pretty link labels. For Discord-style clients, output source URLs directly as '<https://...>' and do not use masked markdown links. Never emit raw standalone URLs outside no-preview wrappers. Only deep-dive into a specific event if the user asks for detail.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| geo | string | — | Comma-separated geographic slugs (e.g. 'europe,lithuania'). Use get_regions to see available regions. |
| hours | integer | — | Time window in hours (1-168). Default: 24. |
| order_by | string | — | Sort order. Default: -sources_count (most covered first). |
| page | integer | — | Page number. Default: 1. |
| per_page | integer | — | Results per page (1-50). Default: 20. |
| topics | string | — | Comma-separated topic slugs (e.g. 'politics,technology'). Use get_topics to see available topics. |

No examples provided.
get_news_detail ~99
Get full details about a specific news event including context and all source articles. Use an event ID from get_news results.
