Key Capabilities

list_categories: Retrieves a current directory of all available news sections on the site.
get_headlines: Pulls the latest feed items including titles, URLs, and image metadata.
get_category_articles: Filters and fetches content indexed under a specific news section.
get_article: Extracts the full text, author, and publication metadata from a specific URL.
search_articles: Executes keyword-based queries to locate relevant stories across the publication's archive.

Use Cases

Automate a daily digest by using get_headlines to pull top stories and summarize them via an LLM for a morning briefing.
Build a specialized research database by using search_articles and get_article to scrape and store historical coverage on specific topics.
Monitor specific news beats by programmatically calling get_category_articles to track updates in sectors like politics, technology, or sports.

Who This Is For

This server is designed for developers building automated news aggregators, data analysts tracking media trends, and researchers requiring structured access to Bangladeshi news content. Users should have a basic understanding of MCP client configuration to integrate these tools into their local AI environment.
