Managed Execution
Jede Zahl unten stammt direkt aus dem Live-Kotaku-Endpunktkatalog — 5 Endpunkte, 8 dokumentierte Request-Parameter und 5 veröffentlichte Response-Schemas — demselben Katalog, gegen den auch Docs und Playground laufen.
5 documented Kotaku endpoints, grouped into 5 request families — Article, Author and Headlines, plus 2 more.
8 request parameters are documented across those Kotaku endpoints, 8 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
5 of the 5 Kotaku endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 5 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
Kotaku endpoints document their error responses (400, 404, 429 and 503) alongside the success schema, so a block, a rate limit, or a missing record comes back as a typed error rather than silently empty data.
5 hosted MCP tools back the Kotaku endpoints, so an agent can call the same routes with the same parameters and the same JSON contract, with no custom glue.

Endpunktkatalog
/kotaku/sectionsReturns the Kotaku section inventory: Entertainment (with its Action, Fantasy, Horror, Sci-Fi, and Superhero sub-topics), Reviews, the Culture umbrella's own sub-topics (News, Retro, Kotaku Game Diary, YouTube, Odds and Ends, Feature, Fine Art), Tips & Guides, Games, and Deals, each linking to its public RSS feed. Every slug is accepted by the headlines endpoint.
MCP-Tool kotaku_sections
/kotaku/newsReturns Kotaku's current top gaming stories, with no parameters. Each item has its title, URL, summary, author, publication time and image where Kotaku provides them. Use `kotaku-headlines` for a single section instead.
MCP-Tool kotaku_news
/kotaku/headlinesReturns recent Kotaku headlines for one section. `section` is required and takes one of 17 slugs such as `news`, `reviews`, `games`, `game-tips`, `retro`, `horror` or `deals`. Each item has its title, URL, summary, author, publication time and image.
MCP-Tool kotaku_headlines
/kotaku/articleReturns public Kotaku article metadata and body paragraphs from a canonical article URL. Kotaku articles are free to read, so the full body is returned.
MCP-Tool kotaku_article
/kotaku/authorReturns a Kotaku author profile by `url`, a canonical `https://kotaku.com/author/<slug>` link. The response has the `name`, `biography`, `image_url`, `social_links` (a `type` label and URL) and recent articles. The article `published_at` is the page's own date text, such as `Published September 23, 2026 at 11:20 am`, not a timestamp.

So scrapst du Kotaku
Kotaku describes itself as a news and opinion site for games and topics serious gamers care about, while also covering anime, TV, movies, and related pop culture. Its taxonomy separates Tips & Guides from culture routes. Collect guides independently from commentary when a workflow needs durable game help, because opinion and reported news have a different expected shelf life. A 2026-10-27 pull listed 17 slugs and showed that Kotaku's sections include entertainment genres such as fantasy, horror, sci-fi and superhero alongside gaming. A second pull on 2026-10-27 re-checked the 17-slug section list and the cross-section feed.
Headlines accept one of 17 slugs, such as news, reviews, games, game-tips, retro, horror and deals. The sections route also describes Entertainment's Action, Fantasy, Horror, Sci-Fi and Superhero sub-topics and the Culture umbrella's own sub-topics.
Headline items carry title, URL, summary, author, publication time and image. The news route reads Kotaku's current top gaming stories.
Kotaku articles are free to read, so article calls on a canonical URL return the full body; a 2026-10-30 sample had 46 paragraphs (about 9,400 characters) with no description field. Slug windows vary widely: entertainment ran 2026-10-19 to 2026-10-29 while action reached back to 2025-07-10, with 20 rows each.
The author route takes a https://kotaku.com/author/<slug> URL and returns name, biography, image_url, typed social links and recent articles.
Slugs include entertainment, action, fantasy, horror, sci-fi, superhero, reviews and news, so a gaming-only job must pick slugs rather than take the whole list.
The entertainment slug returned 20 stories from 2026-10-16 to 2026-10-26, while retro's 20 stories ran from 2026-06-25 to 2026-10-11. All sampled stories had a byline, summary and image.
On 2026-10-27 the sections route listed 17 slugs, among them entertainment, action, fantasy, horror, sci-fi, superhero, reviews, news. Treat each slug as its own feed: send it verbatim and remember that the same story may be listed under several.
The cross-section news route returned 20 stories from 2026-10-26 15:30 UTC to 2026-10-26 23:00 UTC, with bylines on 20 of 20, summaries on 20 of 20 and images on 20 of 20. Poll it for new items, then enrich them from a section feed.
