news.pollar/pollar-news

Tools

• fetch

  Fetches the full text of one Pollar article by the id returned from the search tool. Returns {id, title, text, url, metadata} with the article's summary and source citations.

  shallow
• get_daily_brief

  Fetches today's fixed, curated Pollar daily brief with a greeting, headline, executive summary, themed sections, related events, and charts. Use only when the user explicitly asks for Pollar's daily brief or curated digest. Do not use it for questions about a subject, person, place, or country; use search_news instead. Locale changes the brief's language, not its editorial scope.

  shallow
• get_entity

  Fetches Pollar's profile for a person or organisation by slug. Set withTimeline to include recent events that mention the subject. Returns the profile and a canonical Pollar URL.

  shallow
• get_event

  Fetches the full Pollar coverage of a single event by its slug (get slugs from search_news or list_top_news). Returns title, lead, full summary, source citations, mentioned people, locations, charts, and a canonical pollar.news url to cite.

  shallow
• get_explainer

  Fetches the explainer for one news event by its event slug (from list_explainers, or get_event when its explainer field is set). Returns the question it answers, the narration beat by beat, and each beat's visual data: a map with places and coordinates, a dated timeline (entries marked next are what comes next), a key figure with its source, a bar chart, or a quote. Suited to questions about why a story matters. Returns a canonical pollar.news url.

  shallow
• get_film

  Fetches one Pollar film by slug (from list_films, or the film field of get_event) with its full transcript in the requested language, taken from the reviewed captions. Returns a canonical pollar.news url.

  shallow
• get_live_moment

  Fetches the current snapshot of a breaking-news moment by id, including ordered updates and a source summary. Accepts either a moment id or a story id; story ids resolve to the latest chapter of that story. This is a point-in-time read rather than a stream. Wait at least 30 seconds before refreshing.

  shallow
• get_live_story

  Fetches the current snapshot of a story by id, including its title, status (active/developing/concluded/dormant) and ordered chapters. Use this when you want the multi-chapter arc, not the latest chapter alone. For a single chapter, use get_live_moment.

  shallow
• get_markets

  Returns market data tracked by Pollar, including European and global indices, currencies, crypto, commodities, and bonds. With no arguments, returns the quote catalogue. Pass an exact catalogue symbol for detail and an optional range for history.

  shallow
• get_sound_episode

  Fetches one Pollar Sounds episode by slug (from list_sounds): description, the people and outlets whose recordings are heard, and the full transcript in the requested language with each speaker named. Episodes still in the members-only window come without a transcript. Returns a canonical pollar.news url.

  shallow
• get_thread

  Fetches a single Pollar thread by slug (from list_threads): its thesis, current state-of-play, and recent chronicle entries with citations. Set withHistory=true to also include how the thesis evolved over time. Returns the thread detail with a canonical url.

  shallow
• list_categories

  Returns Pollar's category taxonomy with mention counts. Use it to discover valid category dot-paths before filtering list_top_news. Takes no arguments.

  shallow
• list_explainers

  Lists Pollar's latest explainers, newest first. An explainer is a short narrated walk-through of one news event that answers the question behind it, with maps, timelines, key figures, charts and quotes. get_explainer takes a returned eventSlug for the content.

  shallow
• list_films

  Lists Pollar films, newest first: short videos in which a Pollar journalist answers one question about a news story. Each film links its event when one is attached. get_film takes a returned slug for the transcript.

  shallow
• list_live_moments

  Lists Pollar's live and recently ended breaking-news moments. Use to discover what is breaking now or what ended within the past 24 hours. Each moment carries story metadata (storyId, chapterIndex) when it belongs to a multi-chapter story — chapters of the same continuing narrative are returned in chapter order. Pass a returned id to get_live_moment for the current snapshot.

  shallow
• list_live_stories

  Lists Pollar's active and developing breaking-news stories. Each story has an umbrella title and one or more chapters ordered by chapter index. Use this when you want to surface the narrative arc — e.g. 'this strike has had three chapters over 48 hours' — rather than each moment in isolation. Pass a returned story id to get_live_moment for the current snapshot (it accepts both story ids and individual moment ids).

  shallow
• list_sounds

  Lists episodes of Pollar Sounds, Pollar's narrative audio series that takes one story back to its roots, newest first. Episodes with access 'early' are for Pollar members until publicAt. get_sound_episode takes a returned slug for the transcript and sources.

  shallow
• list_threads

  Lists Pollar's active evergreen threads: ongoing storylines tracked over time and grouped by section, with the latest change magnitude. Use to discover long-running topics. Pass a returned id to get_thread for detail.

  shallow
• list_top_news

  Lists Pollar's current leading news events, ranked by freshness and editorial momentum. Use for broad requests for current headlines with no named subject, place, or country. For a subject or geographic request, use search_news instead. Optionally filters by a taxonomy dot-path such as 'world.politics'; call list_categories first when the category is unknown.

  shallow
• list_trending_entities

  Lists the people, organisations or places most present in Pollar's recent coverage, ranked by recent mentions. Suited to questions like who is in the news this week; get_entity takes a returned person or organization slug for the profile and timeline.

  shallow
• news_near

  Lists recent Pollar events located in or around a named city or town, nearest first, with the distance in km. Accepts the place name in English, Polish, German or French, with an optional country for ambiguous names. A whole country, a region or a topic is a job for search_news.

  shallow
• render_news_list

  Renders selected stories already returned by search_news, list_top_news, or search. Call one of those tools first, then pass up to 10 relevant results without changing their titles or canonical URLs.

  shallow
• search

  Searches Pollar's published news and returns a ranked list of matching articles as {id, title, url}. Use for queries about a subject, person, organisation, place, or country; put that subject or place in query. Locale controls response language, not geographic scope. Pass an id to fetch to read the article.

  shallow
• search_news

  Searches Pollar's news archive using semantic and keyword matching. Use for any subject-specific query, including a person, organisation, place, or country (for example, interesting news in Poland). Put the subject or place in query. Locale controls response language, not geographic scope. For current headlines with no subject or place, use list_top_news.
