unbias.me / Agent access


Everything on this site is also an MCP server, so an agent can read it directly instead of scraping these pages. It is read-only and needs no account, no key and no sign-in.

The endpoint

https://unbias.me/mcp

Claude desktop app

Custom connectors need a paid Claude plan. Open the app, click the menu icon at the top left, hover over File and choose Settings. Click Connectors in the sidebar, then Add at the top right, then Add custom connector. Paste the endpoint above and click Add. No sign-in step follows because the server needs none.

Connectors belong to your Claude account, so the same connector shows up on claude.ai in the browser. There, Settings is under your profile icon.

In a chat, click the plus at the bottom left of the message box and hover over Connectors to turn it on. Ask Claude to call the tags tool first so it knows what the tags mean.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http unbias https://unbias.me/mcp

Codex

In a terminal:

codex mcp add unbias --url https://unbias.me/mcp

Or in the ChatGPT desktop app, open Codex, then Settings, then MCP servers. Click Add server, give it a name, choose Streamable HTTP and paste the endpoint above. Save, then click Restart. The desktop app, the Codex command line and the IDE extension share one configuration, so adding it in one place adds it everywhere.

ChatGPT

Custom servers in ChatGPT chats need a paid plan and developer mode, which OpenAI offers on the web. Open Settings, then Security and login, and turn on Developer mode. Go to the apps page and click the plus button to create an app for a remote MCP server. Paste the endpoint above and choose No Authentication. In a chat, open the plus menu, choose Developer mode and pick the app.

Anything else

Paste this to an agent that can edit its own configuration:

Add the unbias.me MCP server at https://unbias.me/mcp over HTTP transport.
It is read-only, needs no authentication, and gives you
news links with their measured political bias. Once it is connected,
call its tags tool first so you know what the tags mean.

The tools

  1. news, analysis, opinion: the three feeds, each one link per thread, narrowable by topic, lean, date and search terms
  2. search: every headline and summary ever listed, any kind of piece
  3. story: every outlet's version of one story, least slanted first, with the thread it belongs to
  4. thread: the stories of one running subject across days, newest first, with the thread's name
  5. outlet: one outlet's links
  6. outlets: every outlet, with its link count, how its articles spread across each tag, and its bias weight per article
  7. stats: what the site has counted, as the stats page shows it
  8. tags: the questions behind the tags, word for word

Each link comes back with its rewritten headline, the original, its topics, and the full probability distribution behind every tag rather than just the label. Only articles we could read in full are listed, so every link carries scores.
