Shingou does not always answer

Over the last week it answered 49.3% of our checks. We check every 15 minutes, so you hear about the next outage within the hour — not from your users.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: SHINGOU_API_KEY (Shingou API key. A free key works: shingou.io/dashboard). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Available tools 4

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

sentiment
get_sentiment
Latest news-sentiment signal per symbol (batch up to 50 in one call — one signal per asset per hour, so never poll faster than hourly). On the free plan, symbols outside BTC-USD/ETH-USD/SOL-USD are 24h delayed: check `timestamp` and disclose staleness.
get_sentiment_history
Point-in-time sentiment series for backtesting: `bucket` is the as-of time, no lookahead. `from`/`to` are clamped to your plan's history window and to its per-request span, then echoed back — check them rather than assuming. `reconstructed: true` buckets were rebuilt from archival news, not live-collected; disclose the mix in any backtest.
events
get_events
Recent classified market events for a symbol. Kill-switch trio: hack_exploit, regulation, delisting — the reference integrations stand aside for 24h after one. Report the event headline and source link, not just a risk flag.
symbols
get_symbols
The supported symbol universe with each symbol's free-plan freshness. Static — costs no quota and needs no API key.

Shingou — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Shingou do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_events, get_sentiment, get_sentiment_history, get_symbols. 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 Shingou working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 63 of 92 checks got a reply (68.5%), average response time 509 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Shingou?
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 Shingou need an API key?
No. Shingou completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Shingou?
It answers our handshake in 509 ms on average, which is faster than 28% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
How many people use Shingou?
The npm package @shingou-io/mcp-stdio was installed 18 times in the last week. Week over week that is +12%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
