search_news | Newest-first headlines from worldwide sources, optionally filtered by words, language, country, topic, source, kind and time. |
sync_news | Incremental feed: returns items added after `after`, oldest first, plus a new cursor. Call again with that cursor to get only what is new. |
list_stories | The most widely covered stories right now (last 48h), each with a neutral multi-source brief when available, outlet count, languages, entities and a representative report. Filter by lang, country, category, entity. |
find_entities | Look up Wikidata ids for a name (e.g. "Tesla", "Lagos") with how many items mention each in the last 7 days; pass the id as `entity` to search_news or list_stories. |
get_story | Every item in a story (the `story` id on items, st_…): all outlets and languages covering the same event, newest first. |
get_news_item | Full record for one item id (n_… for news, s_… for sponsored). |
list_sources | Registered sources with their language, country, kind and health. Filter by q (name), country or lang. |
quote_placement | Quote for placing a labeled, paid press release in the Hottub News mix via Hottub Business. Price varies by topic tier, current topic interest, demand, targeting reach and duration; the response itemizes each factor. Read-only: returns a price; books and charges nothing. |
news_stats | Item counts over the last 24 hours by kind, language, country and source, plus the current sync cursor. |
