This connects Claude to the GDELT Project, a massive open database tracking global news events, sentiment, and tone from broadcast, print, and web sources worldwide. Hosted via the Pipeworx gateway, it requires no authentication and offers both direct tool access and a conversational ask_pipeworx interface that translates plain English questions into the right API calls. Useful when you need to query recent geopolitical events, analyze media coverage patterns, or pull sentiment data around specific topics or locations. The gateway approach means you can add this standalone or get it bundled with 250+ other data sources through a single Pipeworx connection.
GDELT MCP — Global Database of Events, Language, and Tone (free, no auth)
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 673+ live data sources.
| Tool | Description |
|---|
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"gdelt": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/gdelt/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 673+ data sources:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Gdelt data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
