  APITube is a news data API providing search and retrieval across news articles, top headlines,
  trends, companies, journalists, and fact-checks, with taxonomy resolution for entities, topics
  and locations. The public contract is an OpenAPI 3.1 document of 26 operations served from
  api.apitube.io, authenticated with an API key by header or query parameter. APITube also
  operates a first-party MCP server at mcp.apitube.io over streamable HTTP, whose tool list is
  readable anonymously, and publishes an RFC 9727 api-catalog linkset at the apex that names the
  specification, the documentation, the llms.txt and the MCP server card.

  note: >-
    Submitted via apis.io/add on 2026-08-20 from apitubehq@gmail.com. THE SUBMITTED APIs.json URL
    IS WRONG: https://apitube.io/apis.json returns 404, and so does a control path, so the 404 is
    real rather than a catch-all. That is a bad pointer in the submission, NOT an absent surface —
    APITube publishes plenty. Everything here was discovered from the RFC 9727 api-catalog at the
    apex instead, which is the authoritative discovery document.
    TWO OPENAPI DOCUMENTS EXIST AND THEY DISAGREE. https://api.apitube.io/openapi.json is
    OpenAPI 3.1.0 with 26 paths and no component schemas; https://apitube.io/openapi.json is
    OpenAPI 3.0.3 with 5 paths and 13 schemas. Both were fetched and both are kept under
    openapi/_original/. The api-catalog names the api.apitube.io copy as `service-desc`, so that
    one is treated as canonical and is the working document. The apex copy is retained as
    evidence of the discrepancy; it is the provider's to reconcile.
    The MCP server at https://mcp.apitube.io/ was probed live and answered tools/list anonymously
    with two tools, search_news and suggest. The REST API was probed at
    api.apitube.io/v1/news/everything and returned 401 JSON, which is correct gating.
