Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more

The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.

This connection provides 6 powerful capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other compatible AI platforms. No middleware. No custom integration required.

Finding specific facts across dozens of sources is tedious today.

Right now, if you want to know what the tech sector in Seoul was doing last week relative to regulations in London, you open a browser. You hit Google News for Seoul. Then you switch tabs and search global news sites for London. You have to copy data from one source and paste it into another spreadsheet just to start comparing. It’s time-consuming, prone to missing key details, and requires juggling half a dozen tabs.

With this MCP, your agent handles the whole thing. You tell it: 'Compare tech news on regulations in Seoul vs. London for Q3.' Your agent uses its tools to pull data from both feeds simultaneously, structuring the comparison for you. You get an immediate, cross-referenced summary ready to use.

The Currents MCP gives you controlled access to global news.

Manual processes force you to rely on simple keyword searches and broad category filtering. You can't easily compare a specific country's economic data against its local media coverage, nor can you limit the search to only articles from major domain sources like reuters.com.

This MCP fixes that by giving your agent granular control. By using tools like `list_regions` and `search_news`, you define boundaries for your query—you specify 'Korea' AND 'Business' AND 'last 30 days.' It’s precise, reliable filtering on a global scale.

What your AI can actually do with this

Need to know what's happening right now? This connector gives your AI agent direct access to current global media feeds. Instead of running complicated web queries, your agent streams the latest international news as it breaks—no manual filtering needed.

It lets you go deep into archives that hold millions of historical articles. You can narrow down results by country, language, or specific source domain like reuters.com. Want to search for 'AI regulations' AND 'semiconductors'? Your agent handles the complex boolean logic. This capability connects directly to the Vinkius Marketplace, meaning you connect once from any compatible client and get access to this massive data stream.

It’s built for people who need facts fast: market analysts tracking competitor mentions, or researchers needing verifiable data points across different time zones. You just talk to your agent about what you want to know, and it handles the rest.

Questions you might have

How does the Currents MCP handle advanced searching? +

It uses boolean logic via the search_news tool. You can ask for articles that mention 'AI' AND ('regulation' OR 'ethics') to get a highly specific, filtered result set.

Can I see what languages are supported by Currents MCP? +

Yes. Use the list_languages tool first. This gives you a definitive list of available language codes so your agent can accurately filter international news feeds for you.

Is getting the latest news reliable with Currents MCP? +

The get_latest_news tool provides real-time streaming capabilities. This means you get articles as they break, not hours later when a feed updates overnight.

What is the difference between listing categories and searching news with Currents MCP? +

Listing categories (list_categories) just shows you what types of news exist (like 'Sports' or 'Tech'). Searching actually uses those categories to pull articles from the archive.

How do I verify my connection using the `check_auth` tool? +

The check_auth tool immediately verifies your API key status. A successful return confirms that your agent can access global data; if it fails, you know you need to re-enter or update your credentials.

Does the `list_regions` tool help me filter news by country? +

Yes, it provides a comprehensive list of all supported countries and regions. You can use this list directly within subsequent searches to narrow down results geographically for pinpoint accuracy.

If I need multiple criteria, how do I structure my query using the `search_news` tool? +

You build complex queries by embedding keywords and standard boolean operators like AND, OR, or NOT. This lets you combine specific concepts, for instance finding articles about 'space' AND 'policy'.

How do I get older or more results using the `search_news` tool? +

You must handle deep pagination by passing page numbers or cursor-based parameters. This mechanism allows your agent to reliably retrieve large sets of historical articles without hitting data limits.

How do I find the latest news without specific keywords? +

Use the get_latest_news tool. It provides a real-time stream of international news. You can optionally filter by language, country, or category to narrow down the stream.

Can I search for articles using complex logic like AND/OR? +

Yes! Use the search_news tool and provide your logic in the query parameter. This allows you to use boolean syntax to find exactly what you need across millions of articles.

How do I know which country codes or categories are supported? +

You can use the list_regions tool to see all supported 2-letter country codes and the list_categories tool to see the canonical list of news categories available for filtering.
