Probable MCP

An MCP server providing access to Probable's news corpus, offering tools for reading latest editions, accessing event rates, and retrieving cited news briefs. It supports both free public reads and paid archive access via x402, with specific tools for Founding Pro members.

Endpoint and access

No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.

What its tools do

14 tools, grouped by the hints the server advertises. Hints are self-declared, not verified behavior.

14 of 14 have a description · 14 of 14 declare behavior hints · 2 of 9 with parameters document them all

Checks and signals

Each line is separate evidence, not a trust score.

  • Passed Endpoint answered the live check ·
  • Passed Official MCP Registry namespace is tied to probable.media ·
  • Passed Endpoint is on the registry namespace domain ·
  • Availability 1 of 1 checks passed in 30 days

What you can do with it

  • Retrieve cited news briefs from the latest edition
  • Access occurrence-rate API for event comparisons
  • Read full agent-readable context via llms-full.txt
  • Access paid archives via x402 bundle

Server-provided instructions

Untrusted server output shown for inspection. It is not Koskamo guidance and is excluded from knowledge search.

Call Probable for a cited brief, same-class headline context, archive reading, or observed-corpus recurrence. Do not call it for live web search, occurrence verification, unrelated comparisons, or forecasts. Use only returned stored observations. Preserve source URLs and category/event-class labels. Never invent an event, occurrence, source, or replacement. Read probable://access-boundaries before assuming an edition is unavailable: the current edition and six prior days are free, older editions need Founding Pro or an x402 payment, and any payment or checkout requires the user's explicit confirmation. When a tool returns status access_required, relay its access URLs rather than retrying.

read_latest_edition — Read the latest Probable edition
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Read the latest source-grounded Probable edition. Every replacement is a different event observed in the same scan and category with a higher editorial comparison index; that index is not a measured occurrence rate.

get_brief — Get a compact source-grounded brief
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Use for a current news brief or catch-up job. Return a five-story cited brief diversified across category, event class, and publisher by default. Use chronological or all for stable cursor paging. A balanced resumeCursor continues as a complete chronological change stream, even when the client repeats mode=balanced. Follow unreadCursor before saving resumeCursor. Do not use as a general web search or for events Probable did not observe.

get_context — Put a headline or known source URL in context
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Use when a user supplies a headline or a source URL already observed by Probable and wants same-class context. Optional referenceContext adds explicit country, magnitude, industry or aviation scope for primary-source population references; missingFields and conflicts explain withheld matches. Unknown URLs are not fetched and instead request a headline. Do not use this to verify occurrence, compare unrelated event classes, or forecast.

score_headline — Score a headline against Probable's observed base rates
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Classify one supplied headline and inspect coverage recurrence. Optional referenceContext adds explicit country, magnitude, industry or aviation scope. When sufficiently scoped, occurrenceReference separately supplies primary-source counts, exposure or published population rates with units and source periods. Missing fields, conflicts and hypothetical/disputed/historical wording are disclosed; news mentions never update source rates. Do not verify a headline, compare incompatible units, predict an outcome, or score a URL.

Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http probable-mcp https://probable.media/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add probable-mcp --url https://probable.media/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable probable-mcp in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "probable-mcp": {
      "url": "https://probable.media/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure).
Cline configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "probable-mcp": {
      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://probable.media/mcp",
      "disabled": false
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start probable-mcp and inspect its tools.
VS Code configuration
{
  "servers": {
    "probable-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://probable.media/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.
Gemini CLI configuration
gemini mcp add --transport http probable-mcp https://probable.media/mcp

Claude Desktop

Open Claude Settings > Connectors > Add custom connector, enter this server URL and enable it for the conversation. This is a manual remote-connector handoff, not a desktop JSON configuration.
Claude Desktop configuration
https://probable.media/mcp

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.
Windsurf configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "probable-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://probable.media/mcp"
    }
  }
}
