Ai Daily Insights

A Model Context Protocol server for AI Daily Insights — a daily AI briefing built for both humans and agents.

It lets any MCP-capable assistant (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, …) list, read and search the daily AI news, fully structured — no HTML scraping.

Tools

Tool	What it does
get_latest()	The newest issue with all its news items in one call.
list_latest(limit=5)	List recent issues: date, title, summary, tags, URLs.
get_article(date)	Fetch one issue (YYYY-MM-DD), parsed into news items {index, title, signal, body}.
get_range(from, to, limit=14)	Every issue in a date range (e.g. the past week), fetched in parallel.
list_by_tag(tag, limit=10)	Issues carrying a given tag (company/topic), matched case-insensitively.
search(query, tag, limit=10)	Full-text + tag search across all news items, in one server-side call.

Data comes from the public JSON endpoints (/index.json, /{date}.json, /search) — the server is stateless and needs no API key. Responses are cached in-memory briefly (default 5 min, override with AI_DAILY_CACHE_TTL_MS) to avoid hammering the site on repeated calls.
