AIagent_hlnews_first
by lchenudc
Overview
An MCP server that exposes news headline retrieval functionality (simulated and real-time) as tools for LLM applications.
Installation
python3 server_headlinenews.pyEnvironment Variables
- NEWSAPI_KEY
- OPENAI_API_KEY
Security Notes
The 'changes_part4.py' file, which demonstrates an extension to the server, explicitly hardcodes `NEWSAPI_KEY = "your key"`. This is a critical security vulnerability as it places a sensitive credential directly in the source code. While the README suggests using environment variables, the provided code snippet does not follow this best practice. Running this code as-is would expose the API key. The server also makes external HTTP requests if the `get_realtime_headlines` tool is implemented.
