HackerNews
This HackerNews MCP server provides comprehensive access to the HackerNews Algolia API through five specialized tools: search-posts for keyword and filtered searching with advanced tag and numeric filtering, get-front-page for current trending stories, get-latest-posts for chronologically sorted content, get-item for retrieving complete stories or comments with nested comment trees, and get-user for accessing user profiles and karma scores. Built with TypeScript and featuring robust input validation through Zod schemas, timeout handling, and structured error responses, it supports pagination, multiple search operators, and real-time access to HackerNews content, making it useful for content analysis, trend monitoring, research applications, and building HackerNews-integrated tools.
