ChipsNews MCP Server

fgasparetto/chipsnews-mcp

This connects Claude to the ChipsNews API for managing your news aggregation pipeline. You get tools to configure feed settings (keywords, language, auto-publish flags), manage RSS, Google, and Reddit sources, and handle article workflows with approve, reject, pin, lock, and delete operations. It also exposes manual fetch triggers and usage stats. Useful if you're running ChipsNews as your content engine and want to manage sources, triage incoming articles, or adjust feed parameters without leaving your editor. Requires a ChipsNews API key and runs via stdio transport with Python 3.11+.
