Earlywire — Marketing & Growth Intelligence
https://server.smithery.ai/hello-lc0b/earlywire/mcp** Earlywire — Marketing & Growth Intelligence is the marketing & growth wire for AI assistants. It reads 120+ curated practitioner sources every morning — newsletters, vendor changelogs, and the SEO, analytics and paid-media feeds that matter — and scores each piece 0–10 for signal (only score ≥7 is served). Your assistant gets fresh, judged items with a citable own-words summary and a link to the source, instead of whatever ranks on web search. Use it alongside web search, not instead of it. **Connect (Claude Code):** `claude mcp add --transport http earlywire https://earlywire.barisasa.com/mcp` **Add the skill (so it actually fires):** The skill tells Claude to consult Earlywire — alongside web search — for marketing questions, so it gets used instead of defaulting to the open web. `/plugin marketplace add barisasaa/earlywire then /plugin install earlywire-marketing` (installs the skill and the connector in one step). claude.ai / Desktop: full two-step setup at https://earlywire.barisasa.com/setup Free, no key, 30 requests/minute. **Tools** - `earlywire_search` — full-text search across the corpus - `earlywire_topic_pulse` — what the niche is saying: volume, sources, score spread, top takes - `earlywire_whats_new` — newest judged items, by category - `earlywire_trending` — topics rising vs the prior window - `earlywire_get_item` — one item's summary + excerpt + source link - `earlywire_coverage` — sources, freshness, category mix Own-words summary + short excerpt, always linked to source. Covers marketing, growth, analytics, paid media, SEO and AI search — plus the AI shifts reshaping them.
MCP readiness
Readiness is how fully this listing follows its protocol and how it behaved in our probes over 30 days. It is shown for reference and does not move it in search. Search order and leaderboards use the separate quality grade (here C+, 70.0/100), which weighs availability, conformance, p95 speed and descriptor. How the two differ
| Valid MCP handshake | 10/10 | initialize and tools/list both answered. |
| Live MCP endpoint | 22/25 | Endpoint answers the MCP initialize handshake (8524 ms); near timeout response -3. |
| Protocol revision | 5/10 | Speaks MCP 2024-11-05, 4 revision(s) behind 2026-07-28. |
| Signed descriptor | n/a | No MCP standard defines a signed server descriptor. |
| Uptime (30 days) | 15/15 | 30/30 probes succeeded over 30 days (100%). |
| Tool declaration | 10/10 | Lists 6 tool(s) with descriptions. |
| Verified identity | 5/10 | Publisher declared (repository, package or homepage); claim this listing to verify domain control. |
| Freshness + modern flags | 4/5 | seen in a source within 7 days. |
| Auth declaration | 2/5 | Declares credential scheme: smithery_api_key. |
