Dewey MCP
Dewey MCP is a containerized FastMCP server that exposes read-only search over the Inquirer's news archive backed by Azure AI Search. It surfaces a single `search_archive` MCP tool with text query, optional date and author filters, and a configurable result limit (max 20). The server is open source under the `phillymedia/dewey-mcp` repository and is the protocol surface for the broader Dewey AI librarian project, which emerged from a Lenfest Institute fellowship supported by Microsoft and OpenAI.
Dewey MCP is one of 3 APIs that The Philadelphia Inquirer publishes on the APIs.io network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification.
Tagged areas include MCP, AI, Search, Archive, and Azure AI Search. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes a GitHub repository, API documentation, and an OpenAPI specification.
