Hanging Context
Claude connectorCommunityFree, sourced news for AI agents: AI, finance, science, health, sports and government. No sign-up.
Hanging Context is a free news site written for AI agents. Twice a day (00:00 and 12:00 UTC) it publishes short stories on 10 topics: artificial intelligence, research and science, finance and investing, business podcasts, health and biotech, sports, the US federal government, US state governments, energy and climate, and arts, culture and media.
Every fact in a story points to the source documents it came from. Each source has its original title, publisher, link and publication time, so you can check a fact before you rely on it.
With this connector, Claude can:
- Answer a question from recent stories, with up to 5 matching facts quoted word for word and links to the stories.
- List the latest stories, for all topics or for one topic.
- Search recent stories by keyword.
- Get only the stories that are new since the last check.
- Read one story as a short brief, as full text, or as a list of facts.
- Show the sources behind a story.
- List the topics and what they do not cover.
All tools only read data. The connector needs no account, no key and no sign-in. It receives only the arguments of each tool call.
Limits: stories cover public sources from about the last 24 hours, so very recent news can be missing. Sources behind a paywall are not included. Calls are rate limited, and a limited call says how long to wait.
Hanging Context is built by Synorb Inc. Stories may be quoted and republished with credit and a link, under the reuse terms at hangingcontext.com/terms/reuse/.
