PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Computer or cloud
  • Transport: stdio, Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Other
  • You need to fill in: ALLNEWSAPI_KEY, X-API-Key

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • You fill in yourself: ALLNEWSAPI_KEY, X-API-Key

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

  • Runs in the cloudNothing to install; it connects over the internet
  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Or run it on your computer

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "allnewsapi": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "allnewsapi-mcp",
        "--apikey",
        "your-value"
      ],
      "env": {
        "ALLNEWSAPI_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http allnewsapi https://mcp.allnewsapi.com/mcp --header 'X-API-Key: your-value'

Or run it on your computer

claude mcp add allnewsapi --env ALLNEWSAPI_KEY=your-value -- npx -y allnewsapi-mcp --apikey your-value

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "allnewsapi": {
      "url": "https://mcp.allnewsapi.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Or run it on your computer

This one needs values on its command line, so copy the settings and fill them in.

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "allnewsapi": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "allnewsapi-mcp",
        "--apikey",
        "your-value"
      ],
      "env": {
        "ALLNEWSAPI_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "allnewsapi": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.allnewsapi.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Or run it on your computer

This one needs values on its command line, so copy the settings and fill them in.

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "allnewsapi": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "allnewsapi-mcp",
        "--apikey",
        "your-value"
      ],
      "env": {
        "ALLNEWSAPI_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • ALLNEWSAPI_KEY secret env
    Your AllNewsAPI key, used when --apikey is not passed as an argument.
  • X-API-Key secret required HTTP header
    Your AllNewsAPI key (get one at https://allnewsapi.com).

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is AllNewsAPI safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: ALLNEWSAPI_KEY, X-API-Key

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

Either way works: install it on your computer or connect to the cloud version.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.1.9) reached the registry 2 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: Spec Driven Development, Remote Desktop Commander, Rystic

AllNewsAPI MCP

Get access to real-time and historical news data including top headlines from global sources via AllNewsAPI. Supports multiple filter options including keyword search, category, language and more. This Model Context Protocol server lets MCP clients (Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and others) search news articles, fetch top headlines, and check your API usage.

You'll need an API key — get one at allnewsapi.com.

Quick start

Pick one of the two ways to connect.

Hosted (no install)

Point your client at the hosted server and pass your API key in the X-API-Key header:

{

"mcpServers": { "allnewsapi": { "type": "remote", "url": "https://mcp.allnewsapi.com/mcp", "headers": { "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE" } } } }

Prefer a URL-only setup? Use https://mcp.allnewsapi.com/mcp?apikey=YOUR_API_KEY_HERE instead of the header.

The key can be supplied three ways, in this order of precedence: the X-API-Key header, the apikey query parameter, or an Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY_HERE header (a fallback for clients that only support bearer tokens).

Local (npx)

Runs the server on your machine via npx — no clone or build needed:

{

"mcpServers": { "allnewsapi": { "command": "npx", "args": ["allnewsapi-mcp@latest", "--apikey", "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE"] } } }

You can also supply the key as an ALLNEWSAPI_KEY environment variable instead of --apikey.

Client-specific setup

Claude Desktop

Edit your config (Settings → Developer → Edit Config) and add the local or hosted snippet above. Full guide: modelcontextprotocol.io/quickstart/user.

Cursor

Cursor Settings → MCP → Add new MCP Server. Name it "AllNewsAPI", choose the command type, and enter:

npx allnewsapi-mcp@latest --apikey YOUR_API_KEY_HERE

VS Code

code --add-mcp '{"name":"allnewsapi","command":"npx","args":["allnewsapi-mcp@latest","--apikey","YOUR_API_KEY_HERE"]}'

The server is then available to your GitHub Copilot agent. Full guide: VS Code MCP docs.

Windsurf

Add the local or hosted snippet above to your MCP config. Full guide: Windsurf MCP docs.

Claude Code

Add it from the terminal — local:

claude mcp add allnewsapi -- npx allnewsapi-mcp@latest --apikey YOUR_API_KEY_HERE

Or the hosted server:

claude mcp add --transport http allnewsapi https://mcp.allnewsapi.com/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY_HERE"

Claude Cowork

Cowork runs inside Claude Desktop. Add the hosted server as a custom connector — Customize → Connectors → + — and enter the URL with your key:

https://mcp.allnewsapi.com/mcp?apikey=YOUR_API_KEY_HERE

For a local setup, use the Claude Desktop config shown above.

OpenWork

OpenWork is an open-source Cowork alternative with MCP support. Add AllNewsAPI using either the local command (npx allnewsapi-mcp@latest --apikey YOUR_API_KEY_HERE) or the hosted URL above, following OpenWork's MCP configuration.

Any other MCP client: point it at the hosted URL (https://mcp.allnewsapi.com/mcp) or run the npx allnewsapi-mcp@latest command with your API key.

Plan note: Advanced filters — country, region, category, publisher, lang, attributes, and sortby — require a paid plan. On the free plan, use search-news with q and max. See pricing.

AI filtering

search-news and headlines accept AI-analyzed filters:

  • ai_sentiment — overall article sentiment (positive, negative, neutral)
  • ai_entity_name — a named entity in the article (e.g. United Nations)
  • ai_entity_type — entity category (person, organization, location)

Returned articles may also include AI sentiment scores, detected entities, and a short AI summary when available.

Example prompts

  • "Get me the latest technology news from the US"
  • "Find articles about climate change from European sources"
  • "Show me top business headlines from the past week"
  • "Find positive news about renewable energy"
  • "Show me articles mentioning Apple as an organization"
  • "Check my API usage and remaining quota"
