Connects your agent to the aihot.news feed to search topics, inspect trending AI events, and read curated daily or weekly briefs.
claude mcp add --transport http aihot https://aihot.news/api/mcpWhat AIHOT does
AIHOT connects your assistant to the aihot.news pipeline, which aggregates reports from multiple feeds into unified story clusters. The platform tracks independent mentions over a 48-hour window, prevents identical reprints from skewing popularity, and ranks stories by genuine coverage.
The underlying engine applies two-pass model scoring to extract facts, produce summaries, and assemble daily, weekly, and monthly editions. Connecting via MCP only requires pointing your client to the remote HTTP endpoint at https://aihot.news/api/mcp, with no local Docker deployment needed for the public feed.
What it helps with
- search recent AI events and specific topic feeds
- retrieve daily, weekly, and monthly curated briefs
- track trending AI stories without wading through duplicate articles
- extract key facts and summaries from grouped news items
Example prompts for the agent
