Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically find the latest stories for a specific report by its ID?
Yes! Use the list_stories tool with the Report ID. Your agent will respond with complete metadata for the newest stories, including headlines, summaries, and source links in seconds.
How do I find my Newslit API Key?
Log in to your Newslit account, navigate to Integrations > News API, and you will find your unique secret token (X-NewslitApiKey) there.
Does the API provide full article text?
The API primarily provides headlines, curated summaries, and source metadata. Direct links are provided to access the full content on the original publisher's website.
How does AutoGen connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCP tool adapter and assign it to one or more agents in the group chat. AutoGen agents can then call Newslit tools during their conversation turns.
Can different agents have different MCP tool access?
Yes. AutoGen's role-based architecture lets you assign specific MCP tools to specific agents, so a querying agent has different capabilities than a reviewing agent.
Does AutoGen support human approval for tool calls?
Yes. Configure human-in-the-loop mode so agents pause and request approval before executing sensitive MCP tool calls.
