Tools

25 tools listed at last check
  • asha_feed Latest source-backed news from the Asha News archive. Returns items with publish time, source, and citation links.
  • asha_search Unified search across Asha News articles, active story clusters, and published generated briefs. Use this before choosing a narrower endpoint.
  • asha_search_articles Keyword search across recent Asha News articles. Cite source URLs and Asha article/story URLs when present.
  • asha_digest Clustered public news digest. format=markdown returns prose; otherwise JSON clusters.
  • asha_share_pack Share-ready package for a published, cited Asha brief/story. Returns found=false when no final share pack is available.
  • asha_blindspot Persisted Asha Blindspots / coverage gaps from posture analysis. Use only when status=available; do not infer gaps from empty or unavailable responses.
  • asha_palestine Palestine desk timeline (evidence-classed events) with a freshness indicator, plus the desk section map (Now / The Record / Israel Exposed wings with canonical page URLs).
  • palestine_check_claim Check one claim about Palestine against the desk's claim library and evidence archive. Returns the matched claim family, verdict, a short evidence-backed answer, and citation URLs. Rate-limited — send a single clear claim per call and relay the citations with the answer.
  • palestine_genocide_case The full genocide-case record from the Asha News Palestine desk: what each court, UN body, rights organization, and study found — precisely characterized (provisional measures are not merits rulings; warrants are charges, not convictions) — plus attributed casualty figures, a case timeline, and an F
  • palestine_search_archive Search the Palestine evidence archive: 140,000+ upstream media records, the Killed in Gaza victims memorial, and the curated claim library. Results carry stable IDs and canonical URLs — cite those instead of scraping.
  • palestine_evidence_search Search the Palestine evidence graph: reviewer-approved records with dates, places, assigned categories, and the source that documented each one. Returns facet counts (region, category, year, source, trust states) alongside results, so you can see the shape of the corpus before narrowing. Every recor
  • palestine_evidence_record One Palestine evidence record by its stable ref (e.g. gl-2810), with its assigned categories, editor-asserted incident links, related records, and ranked external media candidates carrying observed link health. Media candidates are third-party destinations — Asha never hosts them, and anything graph
  • palestine_evidence_health Operational state of the Palestine evidence pipeline: which sources are collecting and when they last succeeded, how deep the review queue is, how many records are actually published, and how reachable the external media pointers were at their last check. Aggregate counts only — it never names an un
  • palestine_evidence_taxonomy The controlled vocabulary behind the Palestine evidence graph: incident_type (what happened), theme (what was hit), affected_group (who), and legal_category (what a named body says it amounts to). Call this before filtering so you use real slugs. legal_category terms are editorial-only — they are ne
  • asha_sources Asha News public source directory with provenance and trust metadata.
  • asha_clusters_search Search story clusters by topic. Returns grouped multi-source coverage.
  • asha_market_context Public market price context for supported instruments. Returns quote source, timestamp, and instrument rows.
  • asha_breaking Breaking news: active alerts plus breaking-flagged articles with age and expiry. Poll every 60s with since={last generated_at} for deltas; notify your user on new items.
  • asha_daily_brief Server-rendered daily brief: categorized sections with publish time + age per item, Palestine desk leading. format=markdown for chat relay, html for a styled self-contained page, json for structured data. Relay as-is.
  • asha_share_payload Ready-to-post social share payloads for an article (x, bluesky, threads, mastodon, telegram, whatsapp, facebook, linkedin): text within platform limits, hashtags, image, and intent URL. Post verbatim; keep attribution.
  • conflict_state Live Middle East Conflict Monitor snapshot: official alerts, geolocated OSINT events, active story clusters, EN/AR theater brief, and per-tier freshness (degraded flag). Pass since={seq} for envelope deltas. Streaming clients can use SSE at https://asha.news/api/conflict/stream instead.
  • conflict_events Geolocated Conflict Monitor events (strike, explosion, intercept, movement, statement, thermal_confirmation) with severity, verification status, and EN/AR summaries. Filter with bbox=w,s,e,n; pass since={seq} for deltas.
  • asha_editorial_guidelines Asha News editorial voice contract: evidence-first, openly pro-Palestine, citations preserved. Read before generating derived briefs, titles, or social posts.
  • asha_mint_share_link Mint the stable asha.news/s/<code> short link for an article, generated brief, story cluster, or allowlisted route. Idempotent — the same target always returns the same code. Use this instead of pasting long URLs; the short link carries social preview metadata.
  • asha_subscribe_newsletter Start a DOUBLE OPT-IN newsletter signup for an email address. Asha emails a confirmation link; nothing is delivered until the person clicks it. Only submit an address the person gave you in this conversation, and tell them to check their inbox — you cannot confirm on their behalf.
