Ownership verified

The last two health checks of this connector failed. If this server requires authentication, missing or expired test credentials may be the cause. A test profile lets Glama authenticate for health checks and discover tools; it is separate from your personal connections.

If you are the author, claim ownership, then add or update a test profile under Admin → Test Profile.

A4.9/5.0

Scored across 1 tool

Disambiguation5/5

Only one tool is available, so there is no risk of confusing it with another tool. Its purpose as a news search tool is clearly stated and unambiguous.

Naming Consistency5/5

The single tool name `search_news` follows a clear snake_case verb_noun convention. With only one tool, naming consistency is trivially perfect.

Tool Count4/5

A single tool is minimalist but reasonable for a focused news-search server. It is not a mismatch, though the set would feel thin if users expected supplementary operations like story retrieval.

Completeness5/5

The tool covers querying, pagination, filters, language selection, and optional AI briefing, and returns links, sources, and coverage counts. For a read-only news search domain, no obvious lifecycle gaps exist.
