How this service works
Newstex MCP Network: one page of metadata-only story search results.
Output
Returns a JSON object with an array of story metadata objects (each containing article identifiers, titles, dates, and other metadata fields), a total result count, and an opaque next_cursor string for paginating to the next page of results.
Example use cases
Monitor a news beat for an AI agent
“Search the Newstex publication 'nytimes-tech' for stories about climate policy and give me the top 5 matching article titles and dates.”
Paginate through a large topic search
“I already ran a search on Newstex publication 'reuters-finance' for 'interest rates' and got a cursor back — can you fetch the next page of up to 20 results using that cursor?”
Research recent coverage for a report
“Look up any Newstex stories from publication 'wsj-markets' that mention 'Fed rate cut' so I can see what's been published recently — just the metadata for now.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://mcp.newstex.com/x402/search?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to discover and browse news stories within a specific Newstex-licensed publication by keyword, without incurring the higher cost of fetching full story bodies. Prefer this over the full story retrieval endpoint when you need to scan headlines, filter results, or identify which articles are relevant before committing to fetching full content. This is ideal for monitoring workflows, research pipelines, or any agent that needs to triage content before paying to retrieve it.
Side effects
- Missing or invalid publication_id returns an error — publication_id is required
- Invalid or expired pagination cursor may return an error or unexpected results
- Query string exceeding 512 characters is rejected
- Limit value outside 1–20 range is rejected
- Unauthorized access (invalid payment or missing x402 credentials) returns a 402 Payment Required error
- Publication ID not approved in the Newstex MCP network returns a not-found or access-denied error
