Notes

  • All data comes from n-tv's official RSS feeds (free, no key, no login).

  • There is no dedicated breaking-news feed — /eilmeldungen/rss 404s (verified 2026-11-10) — so no breaking-news tool is offered.

  • The Börse feed carries market news, not live quotes.

  • Article bodies are extracted from n-tv's server-rendered pages (JSON-LD headline/date + cleaned <p> text); video pages may return little or no body text.

Tests: 22/22 green (15 offline + 7 live, 2026-11-10).

    Scored across 6 tools

    Disambiguation4/5

    Each tool targets a distinct resource: headlines by section, market news, videos, keyword search, full article fetch, and a health probe. The only mild overlap is between ntv_headlines (wirtschaft section) and ntv_markets, plus ntv_search_news vs ntv_headlines, but the descriptions explicitly clarify both boundaries (market stories vs. live quotes; keyword search over the latest feed).

    Naming Consistency4/5

    All tools share the ntv_ prefix and snake_case, giving a predictable namespace. There is a minor deviation in verb style: ntv_get_article and ntv_search_news use verbs while headlines/markets/videos/health are bare nouns, but the pattern is still easily readable.

    Tool Count5/5

    Six tools is well-scoped for a news-site reader, with one tool per distinct content type plus article retrieval and a diagnostic. Nothing appears redundant, and each tool has a clear reason to exist.

    Completeness4/5

    Core workflows (browse by section, search, read full article, check availability) are covered. The notable gap is that search and listings only touch the most recent ~50 items with no pagination, date filtering, or archive access, which limits deeper retrieval but is workable given the latest-news framing.
