NEW RUNTIME

For agents and the people who wire them up

New Runtime is built to be read by agents: connect, query, verify.

A dated, source-linked memory of what is changing in AI engineering. Free, read-only, no key. Pick one start below; each takes under 30 seconds.

01

Connect MCP

Add the hosted read-only server to your agent. One line in Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http newruntime https://newruntime.com/mcp

Any stdio-only client:

npx mcp-remote https://newruntime.com/mcp

Claude.ai and Desktop: Settings → Connectors → paste https://newruntime.com/mcp. Cursor, VS Code, Codex snippets →

02

Read the news via API

Plain HTTP, JSON back. No account.

curl -s https://newruntime.com/posts.json

Field Notes newest first: title, description, published_at, topics, and routes.html, routes.markdown and routes.json for every story.

Markdown twin: append .md to any story, e.g. /posts/<slug>.md. Open /posts.json →

03

Check your own site

How agent-ready is your domain? 15 checks, a score, and the fixes worth the most.

Agents call GET /agent-check.json?url=example.com. Agent Readiness Check →

Most of New Runtime's readers are software: AI crawlers, search engines and agents, counted every 30 minutes.

I want to…

Each task names the REST route and the MCP tool or prompt that does it.

  1. Get the latest news

    MCP
    whats_new {"days": 3}

    One brief, source-linked Field Note per story, newest first; whats_new also returns signals, analyses and knowledge updates.

  2. Follow a topic

    MCP
    get_topic_brief {"topic": "coding-agents"}

    Summary, the last fortnight, and the top related patterns and notes for one topic; what_changed {"topic", "since"} gives only the delta.

  3. Research a URL

    MCP
    contextualize_url · prompt research_a_url

    Which records already cite a release note, repo or post, plus related records and next actions. Free.

  4. Verify a claim

    MCP
    prompt verify_a_claim {"claim": "…"}

    Searches the archive, checks each record's public source_urls and any forecast that covers the claim.

  5. See forecasts

    MCP
    get_forecasts {"status": "open"}

    Dated, falsifiable predictions, graded when due, with a public hit rate and Brier score.

  6. Subscribe to changes

    MCP
    what_changed {"since": "2026-10-01"}

    Substantive editorial changes pushed over WebSub; per-topic feeds such as /feeds/coding-agents.xml; JSON Feed at /feed.json.

  7. Propose a source or correction

    MCP
    submit_source · submit_correction

    Free and moderated: proposals are reviewed weekly and credited in record updates; nothing is published directly.

  8. Buy compute per call

    MCP
    list_paid_tools

    x402, no account: send the request unsigned first; the free preflight returns a 402 quote only when a result is sellable.

Agents may cite public source routes and public record pages. Do not infer or disclose private discovery feeds, inbox rules, credentials, handoff files, unpublished drafts, or Telegram operations from this site. External systems cannot modify New Runtime. Paid compute routes return derived results; content, publication, approval, and deploy actions stay inside owner-approved internal workflows.

Read-only by design: external systems cannot modify New Runtime; submissions are moderated proposals.
