Scout Intel MCP MCP server is a hosted integration for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. Scout MCP gives any AI agent instant access to structured business intelligence, market research, and competitive analysis. It aggregates data from DuckDuckGo, NewsAPI, Wikipedia, web scraping, and social profiles into.
Once Scout Intel MCP is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:
domain — stringquery — stringdepth — stringcompany_or_product — stringmax — integertopic — stringtimeframe — stringcompany — stringCursor — The Cursor tool exposed by this serverAuthentication — The Authentication tool exposed by this serverBeing a remote server, there is no local install. You register the endpoint with your client, authorise it once, and the tools appear.
You will need 3 environment variables: NEWS_API_KEY, SCOUT_API_KEY, MONGO_URL. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
This sits in the search and retrieval group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Scout Intel MCP's toolset — domain, query, depth and 7 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by omniologynow-rgb; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
