Getting Started with the Hacker News MCP Server
What is the Hacker News MCP Server?
The Hacker News MCP Server connects your AI assistant directly to Hacker News, one of the tech community's most influential discussion platforms. Instead of manually browsing the site, you can now ask your AI assistant to fetch stories, read comments, look up user profiles, and monitor trending discussions—all through natural conversation.
Installation and Setup
To get started, you'll need to install the server through your MCP client. The server connects directly to Hacker News's public API, so no authentication or API keys are required. Simply add the Hacker News MCP Server to your MCP configuration, and it will be ready to use immediately.
Once installed, the server runs in the background, waiting for requests from your AI assistant. It handles all the technical details of communicating with Hacker News, translating your questions into API calls and formatting the responses for easy reading.
Basic Usage
Start by asking simple questions in natural language. Try requesting "What are the top stories on Hacker News right now?" to see the current front page. Your assistant will retrieve the latest highly-ranked submissions, complete with titles, scores, and links.
To dive deeper into discussions, ask about specific stories: "Show me the comments on the top story." The server will fetch the entire comment thread, allowing you to explore community reactions and expert insights without leaving your conversation.
You can also research individual users: "Tell me about the user 'pg' on Hacker News" will retrieve profile information, karma score, and recent activity for any community member.
Common Tasks
Monitoring trends: Ask for new stories or best stories to track emerging topics. The server provides real-time access, so you're always seeing current data.
Research: Request stories or comments about specific technologies, companies, or topics. Your assistant can help filter through discussions to find relevant information.
Content discovery: Use the community's voting system to find high-quality articles and resources that have been vetted by thousands of tech professionals.
Tips for Best Results
Be specific in your requests. Instead of asking "What's on Hacker News?", try "Show me the top 10 stories on Hacker News about AI." The more context you provide, the better your assistant can filter and present relevant information.
Remember that Hacker News items have unique IDs—if you find an interesting story or comment, you can reference it by ID in future queries for quick access.
