MCP server for Tekna events and news
MCP server for Tekna events and news. The tekna events & news mcp server wraps that behind the Model Context Protocol, so an assistant can use it through 5 defined tools rather than through you.
Search Tekna's event catalog with optional filters for region, topic, format, price, language, and audience.
Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:
PyPI — The PyPI tool exposed by this serversearch_events — Search Tekna's event catalog with optional filters for region, topic, format, price, language, and audienceget_event_details — Get full details for a specific event including speakers, agenda, and pricingget_news — Fetch recent news articles with optional content type filteringget_member_benefits — The get_member_benefits tool exposed by this serverInstallation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at @anthropic-ai/mcpb on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Plenty of developer tooling servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Tekna Events & News's toolset — PyPI, search_events, get_event_details and 2 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by Vortiago; 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.
