Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check China News every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

China News — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Is China News 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 163 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect China News?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does China News need an API key?

No. China News completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is China News?

It answers our handshake in 163 ms on average, which is faster than 74% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is China News open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
