Monthly filtering is done client-side since the API only supports year-level tag filtering.

Scored across 1 tool
Only one tool exists, so there is no risk of ambiguity.
With a single tool, naming consistency is trivially maintained.
A single tool feels too few for even a simple news service; users likely need additional operations like listing recent news or filtering by category.
The tool fetches news for a specific month, but lacks search, detailed item retrieval, or category filtering, which are notable gaps.
