## Operating boundary

The public MCP endpoint reads current Hacker News data. NewsAPI.org support is optional and is reported as not configured when no backend credential exists. No credential, private user data, mutation, or invented story is exposed. tools/list, resources/list, and prompts/list reflect the native registry in /api/mcp.
