For a subject or geographic request, use search_news instead. Optionally filters by a taxonomy dot-path such as 'world.politi

Each moment carries story metadata (storyId, chapterIndex) when it belongs to a multi-chapter story — chapters of the same continuing narrative are returned in c
list_live_stories
Lists Pollar's active and developing breaking-news stories. Each story has an umbrella title and one or more chapters ordered by chapter index. Use this when you want to surface the narrative arc — e.g. 'this strike has had three chapters over 48 hours' — rather than each moment in isolation. Pass a
get_live_moment
Fetches the current snapshot of a breaking-news moment by id, including ordered updates and a source summary. Accepts either a moment id or a story id; story ids resolve to the latest chapter of that story. This is a point-in-time read rather than a stream. Wait at least 30 seconds before refreshing
get_live_story
Fetches the current snapshot of a story by id, including its title, status (active/developing/concluded/dormant) and ordered chapters. Use this when you want the multi-chapter arc, not the latest chapter alone. For a single chapter, use get_live_moment.

What this means. This server responded to the MCP handshake and listed its tools without authentication. The schema fingerprint lets us flag if tool signatures silently change (schema drift) between checks.
