NYTimes Article Search

Features

Tools

  • search_articles - Search NYTimes articles from the last 30 days based on a keyword

    • Takes keyword as a required parameter

    • Returns a list of articles with title, abstract, URL, published date, and author

Development

Install dependencies:

npm install

Build the server:

npm run build

For development with auto-rebuild:

npm run watch

Debugging

Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the MCP Inspector, which is available as a package script:

npm run inspector

The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.
