news-media-research

Researches public BBC, CNN, and Guardian news through the Crawlora API — headlines, article text, live-story updates, search, and topic archives — returning clean JSON. Use when the user wants current coverage or article content from these outlets without scraping pages directly.

Search and read public news coverage from BBC, CNN, and The Guardian as normalized JSON, with outlet-native article, headline, live-story, and topic surfaces.

When to use this skill

• Get the latest headlines for a section or topic.
• Search an outlet for a story or article.
• Read an article's public body and metadata.
• Inspect a CNN or BBC live-story update stream.
• Browse Guardian topic or section archives.

Setup

• Get a Crawlora API key at crawlora.net.
• export CRAWLORA_API_KEY=sk_your_key_here
• Requests use x-api-key: $CRAWLORA_API_KEY against https://api.crawlora.net/api/v1.

How it works

• BBC: use /bbc/headlines, /bbc/search, and /bbc/article; use /bbc/live for a canonical live page.
• CNN: use /cnn/headlines and /cnn/article; use /cnn/live-story for chronological live updates.
• Guardian: use /guardian/headlines, /guardian/article, and /guardian/topic for archives.

Use reference/endpoints.md for exact parameters.
