MCP server for advanced web search using Tavily
Nothing to run from here
GDELT Global News is installed from its publisher's own source and answers where it runs, so this marketplace is not in the path of a single call. There is no address here to send one to, and a panel that pretended otherwise would be showing you an answer we made up. Install it and call it from your own client — the Installation tab has the entry for each one.

claude mcp add --scope user --transport http gdelt-global-news-mcp https://gdelt.caseyjhand.com/mcp
# 2 — ask your agent for something these tools do
# gdelt_search_articles, gdelt_get_coverage_timeline, gdelt_get_tone_distribution and 6 more
GDELT Global News costs nothing on mcprush: there is no plan to choose here, no cap to set and nothing mcprush can bill you for.

Installation
Where are you running it?
Every route below installs the same thing and ends at the same approval screen. Nothing here runs on your machine and nothing runs on ours: this server answers at its publisher’s own address, and what you install is the connection straight to it.
Claude Codedeclared by this listing
This is a public server: it answers at its publisher’s own address and this marketplace is not in the path. Claude Code registers it in one command; --scope user makes it available in every project. The transport below is http, as the publisher's own manifest declares it.
claude mcp add --scope user --transport http gdelt-global-news-mcp https://gdelt.caseyjhand.com/mcpReconnect, or start a new session, and the tools appear in the model’s tool list.
Free on mcprush, and it answers at its publisher’s own address: this marketplace is not in the path, so there is no key of ours to hold and no card to add.
What it writes
One config entry pointing straight at the publisher’s own address — this marketplace is not in the path, and nothing from this listing executes on your machine.

Search the last 3 months of global news coverage (65+ languages) using the GDELT DOC API. Returns up to 250 articles with URL, title, source domain, language, country, publication date, and social image URL. Query supports full GDELT syntax: phrases ("bird flu"), boolean OR ((flu OR pandemic)), source country (sourcecountry:china), source language (sourcelang:spanish), domain (domain:who.int), GKG

Retrieve a time series showing when news coverage of a topic spiked, or how average tone shifted over time. Use mode "volume" for normalized coverage intensity (% of all global coverage per timestep). Use mode "volume_with_articles" for the same signal plus the top articles that drove each spike — this is the primary signal-detection mode: a single call reveals both the spike and its cause, avoidi

Get the tonal distribution of articles matching a query as a histogram (bins approximately -30 to +30). Unlike a single average tone score, the histogram reveals whether coverage is uniformly negative, bimodal (some articles extremely positive and some extremely negative), or clustered near neutral. Each bin includes representative article URLs. Distinct from gdelt_get_coverage_timeline (mode: ton

Break down news coverage volume over time by source language or source country, returning a multi-series time series (one series per language or country). Shows which countries or languages drove early vs. late coverage — useful for tracing how a story propagated geographically or across language communities.

Search US television news closed captions (2009–October 2024, 150+ stations) for spoken mentions of a query. Returns a normalized per-station time series showing relative airtime devoted to the topic. Use the stations parameter to select networks (e.g. ["CNN", "FOXNEWS", "MSNBC"]) — the TV API requires at least one station, supplied either there or as a station: selector inside query. TV query als

Retrieve the top matching TV news clips (up to 3,000) for a query from the Internet Archive's Television News Archive.

Two independent axes, because powerful and malicious are different questions. The grade is threat only. The capability level is blast radius, and it is never a penalty on the grade — it is priced as one subtract-only term in the score, where you can see it.
This listing is an address its publisher runs, and you connect to it directly — this marketplace is not in the path. The scanner reads packages and public source, and an address is neither. So there is no grade — not a withheld one, an unmeasured one.

This is an address its publisher runs: which release it serves is theirs to choose, so there is nothing here to pin. The history below is for reading; the current release on file is 0.2.7.

Who can review
One review per account, from a signed-in account that does not publish this listing. Nothing else is asked — you can say what you think before you install it. Publishers can reply once per review, and a review can be edited or deleted by whoever wrote it.

Any signed-in account that does not publish GDELT Global News can review it, once — before installing it or after. A review from an account that has installed it is marked as one.
No reviews yet
Nobody has reviewed this listing. The rating on the card is the mean of the reviews written here and nothing else, so there is no rating until somebody writes the first — which takes a signed-in account that does not publish it, and nothing else.
