Tool changes

  • search_news_eventsremoved

    Find news stories GlobeNow is tracking now or in the last few days, grouped from videos by many outlets. Returns each story's event_id, short summary, countries reporting it, number of outlets and videos, and links to the story page and the 3D globe. Leave query empty to list the top stories right now.

  • compare_event_coverageremoved

    For one story (event_id from search_news_events), show how it is being reported in each country: number of videos, which outlets, languages, when coverage started, and the latest videos with original and translated titles, coordinates and YouTube links.

  • find_live_tvchangedtitle, description, input schema, annotationsmeaning changed
    before

    Free, official 24/7 live TV channels that broadcasters stream on YouTube (news, business, kids, music, religious and more), with country, language, whether the stream plays worldwide, current viewers and links. Clients that support MCP Apps can play the stream inline or in picture-in-picture.

    after · 47% of words in common

    Use when the user wants to watch a TV channel or live news (e.g. 'play BBC News', '凤凰卫视直播', 'Japanese news live'). Finds free, official 24/7 live channels (news, business, kids, music, religious and more; Simplified/Traditional Chinese names both work) with country, language, whether the stream plays worldwide and current viewers. In clients that support MCP Apps the best match starts playing right away in GlobeNow.tv's player; it can move to picture-in-picture and keep playing while the user chats.

Returns the latest news videos filmed or reported there (default: last 24 hours) with outlets, coordinates and links to the city page and the 3D globe. In clients that support MCP Apps it shows a place card (city photo from Wikimedia, place name) with one button that opens the full GlobeNow.tv 3D globe at that place in a new tab, where the user drags the globe and taps a light to play that video.
