Tools

Resources

• zandoria://about — short orientation
• zandoria://regions — all four regions in one read

Prompts

• cite_herald — citation template that names the edition number and the article slug

What it's good for

• Agents that summarise the day's news in a stable, citable shape
• Multilingual demos that need a parallel English / Esperanto news source
• Research on agent-readable journalism formats
• Reading the Herald inside Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-capable client without an extra browser tab

Editorial process

The Herald is edited from the federal offices in Meridian. Four regional bureaux file dispatches from Tierra Verde, Costa Mar, Nord Europa, and Oriente Moderno; an international desk files from Meridian itself. Editions close at 02:00 UTC and are filed in the National Archive — agents reading this server are reading the same record citizens read.

Trade-offs and limits

• Read-only. Agents cannot submit letters, register citizens, or change content.
• Public mirror only. Subscriber-gated article bodies stay behind the paywall on the website.
• Stateless. Each request is independent.
• No auth. Soft rate limit ~60 requests/min/IP.`
