Summary
Connects Claude to The Guardian's Open Platform API with three core operations: content search across articles, fetching individual pieces by ID, and browsing their tag taxonomy. Runs through Pipeworx's gateway infrastructure, which means you can either point directly at the Guardian endpoint or add the full Pipeworx gateway to get 250+ data sources in one connection. Supports their ask_pipeworx wrapper if you'd rather describe what you want in plain English instead of calling tools directly. No auth required to start. Useful when you need to pull recent news, research Guardian coverage on a topic, or build context from their editorial tagging system.
Keep your Mac awake while Claude Code and 40+ AI agents run. Sleeps when they're idle.

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"the-guardian": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/the-guardian/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 673+ data sources:
{

"pipeworx": {

Using with ask_pipeworx
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about The Guardian data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
