What is the Syracuse Company News MCP server?

Syracuse Company News MCP server is a locally run integration for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. Structured company & industry news for AI agents: typed, dated, source-linked events.

What you get

Get a free API key from syracuse.1145.am - all you need to provide is your email address. Here is a curl command to do so:

What the assistant can call

Once Syracuse Company News is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:

  • register_and_get_key — location_groups_list
  • stories_industry_location_list — stories_organization_list

Configuration and credentials

You will need one environment variable: MCP_SERVER_API_TOKEN. 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.

Setting it up

Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.

Choosing this one

Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Syracuse Company News's toolset — register_and_get_key, stories_industry_location_list — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by 1145-am; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

Before you rely on it

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the syracuse company news mcp server does with a few real requests.
