Code Editors Setup

Connect your editor to the hosted MCP Server and search news from inside your assistant. The server lives at https://mcp.apitube.io/, speaks HTTP JSON-RPC, and authenticates with an Authorization: Bearer header — no install or local process to maintain.

Before you start

  1. Get an API key at apitube.io.
  2. Replace YOUR_API_KEY in every config below with your key.
  3. Restart the editor after saving the config.

TIP

The configs below use the hosted server directly. For clients that can only launch local (stdio) servers — like Claude Desktop — bridge the remote server with mcp-remote, as shown in that tab.

Configuration by editor

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) or .cursor/mcp.json (per project):

json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apitube-news": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apitube.io/",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Open Settings → MCP to confirm apitube-news is connected.

Verify it works

Once connected, ask your assistant a natural-language question:

text
Find positive breaking news about Tesla in English from the last week

The assistant calls the everything tool and returns matching articles. For the full filter set and troubleshooting, see the MCP Server reference.
