Freshness
Updated source context
Use feeds when the agent needs current information beyond model training data and static documentation.
MCP news feeds
An MCP server for news feeds should expose source-grounded updates.
When developers search for an MCP server for news feeds, they usually want a clean agent interface: find the right coverage, inspect source scope, and retrieve current items without custom wrappers.
Synorb Core MCP lets agents discover Streams and retrieve Manifests from watched source coverage, with source URLs, dates, stable IDs, Signals, and Briefs attached.

01 / Criteria
What should the data layer include?
For MCP-accessible news and source feeds for AI clients, the useful unit is not a loose search result. It is an object the agent can retrieve, cite, filter, store, and audit.
Grounding
Evidence stays attached
Source URLs, dates, and stable IDs help the application cite, inspect, and audit what the model used.
Delivery
MCP, REST, webhooks, and archives
Agents can explore through Core MCP. Production systems use REST and webhooks for current delivery. The live window covers the current calendar month plus the previous three full months; S3 archive exports support historical backfills and replay for older months.
02 / Shape
A Manifest is the object the agent can use.
This JSON manifest is the source-grounded object delivered through MCP or REST. It is compact enough for an agent workflow and explicit enough for an application to store, cite, and audit.

03 / Fit
Where Synorb fits in the workflow.
Use Synorb when your team already knows the sources or topics it needs to monitor, and the workflow needs current context again and again. Use search or crawling for open-ended discovery.
