# Wikinews MCP

Search the Wikinews archive from your AI assistant (Claude Code, Claude Desktop,
Cursor) over the Model Context Protocol. A Miso product demo; content from
Wikinews under CC BY 2.5. The archive runs through 2013.

## Get started
- [Install guide](https://wikinews.mcp.miso.ai/): connect the MCP in Claude Code, Cursor or Claude Desktop, then sign in
- [MCP endpoint](https://wikinews.mcp.miso.ai/mcp): streamable-HTTP MCP server (OAuth)

## Skills plugin
- [Marketplace](https://wikinews.mcp.miso.ai/marketplace.json): run `/plugin marketplace add https://wikinews.mcp.miso.ai/marketplace.json` then `/plugin install wikinews-mcp-plugin@wikinews` — installs the MCP plus a skill that teaches the assistant to search the archive well (search first, quote from full text, always cite)
