Horizon AI Intelligence — MCP Server

> Free AI-industry intelligence for agents: daily briefings, a US/UK/EU regulation tracker, and China/EU/South-America regional lenses.

Horizon is a hosted, remote Model Context Protocol server that gives any MCP-capable agent a single, cheap call for *"what's happening in AI right now."* It aggregates Hacker News, Reddit, arXiv, Hugging Face, ModelScope, lab blogs and more, LLM-scores everything for relevance, and exposes daily briefings, a live regulation tracker, regional lenses, and semantic search.

Endpoint: `https://horizon.alchemylab.sh/api/mcp` (streamable-HTTP)
Auth: none for the read tools
Docs & full API: https://horizon.alchemylab.sh/developers
In the official MCP registry as: `sh.alchemylab.horizon/briefing`

> This repository is documentation only — Horizon is a hosted service that's always on. There's nothing to install, build, or run locally.

Quick start

Point any MCP client at the remote endpoint via the `mcp-remote` shim:

json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "horizon": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://horizon.alchemylab.sh/api/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Drop that into your client config (`claude_desktop_config.json`, Cursor, Cline, etc.) and the Horizon tools appear. No API key is needed for the read tools.

Tools

The read tools are free and need no auth. See https://horizon.alchemylab.sh/developers for the always-current list and full schemas.

Tool	What it does
`get_daily_briefing`	Today's AI briefing — top stories, emerging signals, new entrants
`get_regulation_updates`	Live US / UK / EU AI-regulation tracker with stage timelines
`get_topic_signal`	Momentum on a topic over a time window
`get_region_signal`	Regional lens — `china`, `eu`, or `south-america`
`search_news`	Full-text search across the recent corpus (teaser results)
`get_new_since`	Incremental delta poll (cursor-based) for polling agents
`get_related`	Semantic "more like this" for a given item
`list_sources`	The ingested source catalogue
`ask_horizon`	Synthesized, cited answer over the recent corpus (needs an API key)
`get_trends`	The week's rising models, labs & people by momentum (Pro — needs an API key)

Every item tool also returns `structuredContent` for easy parsing.

REST (no MCP client needed)

The cheapest single fetch for "what happened in AI today":

bash

curl https://horizon.alchemylab.sh/briefing.md            # today's briefing, markdown
curl https://horizon.alchemylab.sh/api/public/briefing    # same, JSON (add ?format=md)
curl https://horizon.alchemylab.sh/api/public/regulations # US/UK/EU AI legislation + stages

Machine-readable index: https://horizon.alchemylab.sh/llms.txt

Full API (key-gated)

Subscribers mint API keys at https://horizon.alchemylab.sh/api-keys for the `/api/v1` tier — full-text search, full bodies, complete history, webhooks, and the cited `ask_horizon` answer endpoint. Import the OpenAPI 3.1 spec at https://horizon.alchemylab.sh/openapi.json into GPT Actions, LangChain, or any tool-caller to auto-generate a typed client.
