How to: Grok SkimNews SkimNews story cards

client:Grok transport:streamable-http resource:SkimNews story cards

Add SkimNews to Grok

  1. 01

    Open .mcp.json (in your project root) and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "news": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://skimnews.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Grok.

  2. 03

    SkimNews story cards is surfaced wherever your client lets you attach context. It is context to attach, not an action to run.

  3. 04

    If it does not appear, check that SkimNews is connected and that you are looking at its resources rather than its tools.

Grok Build reads Claude Code's .mcp.json and Claude Desktop's config unchanged, so a server you have already set up there needs nothing new. The Grok web app and X integration do not take custom servers. Grok docs

Same resource, other clients

Read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling resources/list on 6 October 2026. A listing does not declare its resources, so asking is the only way to know them, and this is what the server actually offers rather than what its listing claims. Names only are stored; connect the server for each resource's type and contents.
