marsbit-news-skill

Fetch MarsBit news and flash data through the hosted MCP route in marsbit-co. Use this for latest news, channel lookup, keyword search, detail, related news, and flash updates.

MarsBit OpenNews Skill (Directly Usable)

This skill is designed to work immediately after installation using the hosted MCP endpoint.

MCP endpoint:

• https://www.marsbit.co/api/mcp

Use this endpoint in all commands:

bash

MCP_URL="https://www.marsbit.co/api/mcp"

Runtime rules

When user asks for MarsBit news/flash info, call MCP tools via curl directly.

Required headers for every MCP POST:

• Content-Type: application/json
• Accept: application/json, text/event-stream
• mcp-protocol-version: 2025-11-25

Response parsing:

• MCP wraps tool output in result.content[0].text
• text is a JSON string; parse it before answering
• If success is false, surface the error and ask user whether to retry with different params

Backend architecture alignment

This skill relies on the current marsbit-co hosted MCP implementation (/api/mcp), which internally uses:

• fetcher(..., { marsBit: true }) in src/lib/utils.ts
• News APIs: /info/news/channels, /info/news/shownews, /info/news/getbyid, /info/news/v2/relatednews
• Flash API: /info/lives/showlives
• Search API: /info/assist/querySimilarityInfo (via src/lib/db-marsbit/agent)
