## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Heuristic fallback — verify the package name and runner against the repository README before running it. Uses `npx` (confidence: low):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "china-policysignal": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","china-policysignal"]
  }
}
```

## Documentation & README

# China PolicySignal

**Search 14,966 Chinese government and Party documents from your AI assistant** — Xi Jinping's speeches, articles, and official statements, 2012 to present, with verbatim source-linked citations.

**Remote MCP server. Nothing to install, no API key — just a URL:**

```
https://policy-signal.onrender.com/mcp
```

Listed in the [official MCP Registry](https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io) as `io.github.acee-ventures/china-policy-signal`.

> 中文说明见 **[README.zh.md](https://github.com/acee-ventures/policy-signal/blob/HEAD/README.zh.md)** · Full setup & tool reference: **[USER-GUIDE.md](https://github.com/acee-ventures/policy-signal/blob/HEAD/USER-GUIDE.md)** / **[使用指南.md](https://github.com/acee-ventures/policy-signal/blob/HEAD/使用指南.md)**

> **What this is:** a *retrieval and discourse-analysis* tool over **publicly available official texts** — it surfaces what was said, when, and how phrasing evolves, with verbatim, source-linked citations. **What this is not:** not a prediction service, not an endorsement, not a tool for profiling private individuals. Analytical outputs are labeled research inference, never fabricated quotes or claims of certainty. In the tradition of open China-studies tooling such as the [China Media Project](https://chinamediaproject.org/) and [CSIS Interpret: China](https://interpret.csis.org/).

## Quick start

- **Claude Code** (fastest): `claude mcp add --transport http --scope user policy-signal https://policy-signal.onrender.com/mcp`
- **Claude Desktop / ChatGPT / Cursor / VS Code / Cline / Windsurf**: add a *custom / remote MCP connector* and paste the URL above (no authentication). Per-client steps in **[USER-GUIDE.md](https://github.com/acee-ventures/policy-signal/blob/HEAD/USER-GUIDE.md)**.

Then ask your assistant:

> **Find the source.** "What has Xi said about AI governance? Quote the key passages with dates and source links."

> **Track a formulation.** "Chart how often 新质生产力 (new quality productive forces) appears each year since 2012, and show me the document where it first emerged."

> **See framing evolve.** "Build a timeline of how the framing around 共同富裕 (common prosperity) changed, citing one document per phase."

Each answer comes back with article IDs, publication dates, and links to the original — so every quote can be checked against the source.

## Capabilities

| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| `search` / `list_articles` | Full-text search (synonym/OR sets, time-sorted) with metadata filters |
| `get_article` / `get_context` | Retrieve a document / close-read a passage — **the only source of verbatim quotes** |
| `topic_timeline` | Evidence timeline of how a topic's framing evolves year over year |
| `phrase_trend` | Track a formulation's rise / fall / disappearance over time (*tifa* signal; zero-filled buckets so "no longer mentioned" is visible) |
| `recent_signals` | Scan for recently rising or newly appearing formulations |
| `corpus_stats` / `update_corpus` | Coverage & freshness / incremental refresh (refresh disabled on the public endpoint) |

Two guided prompts — `scenario_research(topic)` and `event_prediction(event)` — walk a client model through an evidence-first method: build a timeline → compare formulations → close-read turning points → layered high/medium/low-confidence inference with explicit falsification points.

## Method & guardrails

- **Every claim is anchored to a document** (id + date + source URL). Verbatim quotes come only from `get_context` / `get_article`, checked against the corpus.
- **Facts vs. inference are labeled separately.** The analytical prompts forecast *themes, framing, and formulation priorities* — never a verbatim script, a specific dated event, or a probability of an act.
- **Research framing.** Outputs are documentary research over public statements, not prophecy.

## Corpus & sources

Public official statements as published on open government sources; see [SOURCES.md](https://github.com/acee-ventures/policy-signal/blob/HEAD/SOURCES.md). The corpus stores document text and metadata for search and citation and is **not** offered as a bulk-download dataset; every result links back to its original publication. Usage limits and troubleshooting are in [USER-GUIDE.md](https://github.com/acee-ventures/policy-signal/blob/HEAD/USER-GUIDE.md).
