Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Search and read government press releases from the US, Korea, UK, EU, New Zealand and Australia.

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: Runs in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Search & AI memory
  • You need to fill in: X-Api-Key

Install

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

Before you install

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

You need

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.

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http wire https://wire.blinkhub.net/mcp --header 'X-Api-Key: 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": {
    "wire": {
      "url": "https://wire.blinkhub.net/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-Api-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": {
    "wire": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://wire.blinkhub.net/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-Api-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

  • X-Api-Key secret required HTTP header
    BlinkHub Wire API key (free tier: 100 full articles/month). Get one at https://blinkhub.net/en/publishers/join

Common questions

Is BlinkHub Wire safe?

It passed 0 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: X-Api-Key

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.0) reached the registry 27 days 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: Context7, Codebase Memory, Exa

BlinkHub Wire — government news API and MCP server

Government press releases from six markets, ready to run: the United States, Korea, the United Kingdom, the European Union, New Zealand and Australia. Pull them over a REST API as IPTC ninjs 2.1, or connect an AI assistant through the MCP server and let it search and read them for you.

Every document carries the attribution line it needs in copyrightnotice. Sources whose terms do not allow commercial redistribution are left out of the feed.

Getting a key

  1. Register your publication at https://blinkhub.net/en/publishers/join (free account).
  2. In the portal, open Wire: add your site, fill in your publication details, agree to the terms and verify the site (a meta tag or a text file).
  3. We review and approve the publication, and you are emailed when it is approved.
  4. Copy your key from the portal. It is shown once; you can rotate it from the same screen.

The free tier covers 100 full articles a month. For higher volumes, write to contact@blinkhub.net.

Use it from an AI assistant (MCP)

The MCP server speaks Streamable HTTP at https://wire.blinkhub.net/mcp and takes your key in the X-Api-Key header (or Authorization: Bearer ).

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http blinkhub-wire https://wire.blinkhub.net/mcp \

--header "X-Api-Key: $BLINK_WIRE_KEY"

Any client that reads an `mcpServers` config

{

"mcpServers": { "blinkhub-wire": { "type": "http", "url": "https://wire.blinkhub.net/mcp", "headers": { "X-Api-Key": "YOUR_KEY" } } } }

Then ask in plain language — *"Find this week's UK government announcements on energy and summarise the top one, with the attribution line."*

REST endpoints

Billed
GET /api/wire/v1/health—Liveness. No key needed.
GET /api/wire/v1/mefreeYour account, plan, quota and usage.
GET /api/wire/v1/articlesfreeWhat is available. Headlines and metadata, no body.
GET /api/wire/v1/articles/{id}per articleThe full ninjs document.
POST /api/wire/v1/publicationsfreeOptional: tell us where you published a story you took.
GET /api/wire/v1/publicationsfreeYour reported publications.
Listing

GET /api/wire/v1/articles?market=gb&limit=20&since=2026-10-01T00:00:00Z

market defaults to us. limit is 1–100 (default 20). since returns only what appeared after that time, so a scheduled job can ask for what is new since its last run.

{

"market": "us", "count": 1, "items": [ { "uri": "urn:blink:wire:us:48211", "id": "48211", "headline": "NASA Selects Instruments for Lunar Surface Mission", "description_text": null, "source": "NASA", "versioncreated": "2026-09-25T22:10:04.120000+09:00", "has_image": true, "body_chars": 4180, "already_taken": false } ] }

already_taken tells you whether this key has fetched that article before — if it has, fetching it again is free.

Fetching one

GET /api/wire/v1/articles/{id}?market=us

Returns a ninjs 2.1 document. Bodies are cleaned of site furniture (newsletter prompts, share rows, duplicated blocks) and image URLs point at public addresses. Non-standard fields are kept under x_blink so a standards-compliant consumer can ignore them. Korean articles embargoed by the issuing body stay hidden until the embargo time.

Billing

  • Listing and searching are free. See what exists before you take any of it.
  • A full fetch counts once — the first time this key takes a given article.
  • Re-fetching is free. After a crash, during a re-index, from a second system.
  • Nothing is counted for an article we refuse to serve. The quality gate runs first.

Errors

All errors share one shape:

{ "error": { "code": "quota_exceeded", "message": "..." } }
HTTPcode
401unauthorizedMissing, unknown or suspended key.
400unknown_marketUnknown market.
402quota_exceededFree tier: this month's quota is used up.
402insufficient_creditsPaid tier: balance is below the per-article rate.
404not_foundNo such article, or it is not available for distribution.
409not_distributableFailed the quality gate. Not counted.
500internal_errorTransient. Retry.

WordPress

The BlinkHub Wire Importer plugin imports articles into WordPress on a schedule and reports publications back automatically.

Examples

  • examples/fetch.py — Python, standard library only
  • examples/fetch.mjs — Node 18+, no dependencies
  • openapi.yaml — OpenAPI 3.1 description of the REST API

Both examples list what is new since a timestamp, then fetch only the articles this key has not taken before. Pass --market gb (or any market code) to read another feed.

Licence

The code in this repository is MIT (see LICENSE). The articles are not: each document's copyrightnotice and usageterms fields state the terms that apply.
