niche
niche_angle_propose
Angles on one story (Pro): up to a few distinct stances a reader could take, each with a hook, the take, and the sources that support it. Pass the session_id from a scan and a story_id from its slate. Nothing is written for you; the angles are starting points.
niche_feed_read
Read the latest or a dated briefing for a niche: stories, reporting dates, source links, why each story matters, and new or continuing status. Use a slug from https://nicheangle.com/n or a custom niche's URL, such as founders or ai-leaders. Assistant access requires Pro. This reads an existing briefing without starting a scan. A quiet briefing has status=quiet; no_edition means no briefing is available; unknown_niche means the slug was not found.
niche_intelligence_query
Ask an analyst-shaped question over a fresh scan of a niche (Pro): 'the biggest developments this week', 'what is emerging', 'where money is moving'. Returns the sourced slate plus a short synthesis when requested. Returns a session_id; poll niche_session_state until cp1_awaiting_story. For synthesis, continue polling with wait_until=synthesis and wait=30 until it arrives or a shortfall is reported.
niche_list_sessions
List your recent scans: id, the niche you described, status and timestamps. Use it to find a session_id you no longer have.
niche_session_cancel
Cancel a scan that is still running.
niche_session_state
Read the current state of a scan: status, the ranked stories with their sources and source information, and any angles already proposed. Poll this after niche_signal_scan or niche_intelligence_query until the slate is ready.
niche_signal_scan
Scan a niche you describe, right now (Pro). Returns a ranked, sourced slate of the stories people in that field are talking about, with source links, the outlets, and why it matters. For a ready-made briefing use niche_feed_read instead. Assistant access requires Pro. Poll niche_session_state with the returned session_id until status is cp1_awaiting_story; the slate is in `stories`.
niche_whoami
Orient in one read-only call: your plan (Free or Pro), the tools this server serves, and the endpoint. Assistant access requires Pro. Call it first if you are unsure what is available.

Niche: Your niche, followed for you — questions
Answers built from our own checks of this server.
What can Niche: Your niche, followed for you do?
It exposes 8 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: niche_angle_propose, niche_feed_read, niche_intelligence_query, niche_list_sessions, niche_session_cancel, niche_session_state and 2 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README.
How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Niche: Your niche, followed for you working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 343 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
Did Niche: Your niche, followed for you ever remove tools?
Yes. niche_add_output, niche_attach_image, niche_brand_kit_guided_setup, niche_brand_kit_ingest and 14 more are no longer exposed — we recorded the date each one disappeared. A tool vanishing usually means a breaking change for anything that depended on it.
How do I connect Niche: Your niche, followed for you?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Niche: Your niche, followed for you need an API key?
No. Niche: Your niche, followed for you completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 8 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Niche: Your niche, followed for you?
It answers our handshake in 343 ms on average, which is faster than 40% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is Niche: Your niche, followed for you open source?
We cannot say either way: written in Shell and 0 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
