News and Media Mention Monitor MCP Server

An MCP server for the Mamba Labs News and Media Mention Monitor actor on Apify. Give it company names, brands, people, or topics. It reads Google News for each one and returns one row per article: headline, outlet, date, the publisher's own URL and domain, and a headline sentiment label. With only_new on, a repeat call with the same state_key returns only articles it has not returned before.

What it does

Each news.google.com link is resolved to the article's URL on the publisher's site. An article found by two of your search terms comes back once. When a run returns no article, one free summary row says why: nothing matched, everything was returned before, or Google News did not answer. All of the work runs on Apify. This package is a thin client that starts the actor run, waits for it, and hands back the dataset rows.

Quick start

You need Node.js 18 or newer and an Apify account with an API token.

Add this to your Claude Desktop config (claude_desktop_config.json), Cursor, or any MCP client:

json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mamba-news-media-mention-monitor": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@mambalabsdev/mcp-news-media-mention-monitor"
      ],
      "env": {
        "APIFY_TOKEN": "your-apify-token"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart the client. The monitor_news_mentions tool appears.
