Managed execution
Every figure below is read from the live Gizmodo endpoint catalog — 5 endpoints, 8 documented request parameters, and 5 published response schemas — the same catalog Docs and Playground run against.
5 documented Gizmodo endpoints, grouped into 5 request families — Article, Author and Headlines, plus 2 more.
8 request parameters are documented across those Gizmodo endpoints, 8 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
5 of the 5 Gizmodo endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 5 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
Gizmodo 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 Gizmodo endpoints, so an agent can call the same routes with the same parameters and the same JSON contract, with no custom glue.

Endpoint catalog
/gizmodo/headlinesReturns the latest Gizmodo headlines for one section. `section` is required and takes a slug such as `gadgets`, `artificial-intelligence`, `io9`, `science` or `deals`; any other value returns an invalid-params error. Each item has its title, URL, summary, publication time, author and image. Use `gizmodo-sections` to list the slugs.
Sampled 14 Oct 2026: 20 items, 6 fields filled in every item. published_at: 2026-10-07 to 2026-10-13; url: gizmodo.com.

MCP tool gizmodo_sections
/gizmodo/articleReturns public Gizmodo article metadata and body paragraphs from a canonical article URL. Gizmodo articles are free to read, so the full body is returned.

How to scrape Gizmodo
Use Gizmodo's public article, section, and author routes to collect technology coverage while retaining its original commentary and topic context. Its own About page groups staff into Tech News, Consumer Tech, Science and Earther, and io9. Those desks span product reporting, science and climate coverage, and genre entertainment, so a broad headline feed can combine unrelated subjects. Query the catalog's sections list before selecting a supported feed; retain the desk and article format to distinguish reported product changes from commentary and speculative explanation. On 2026-10-27 the 49 sections returned 20 stories each, but the tech feed covered about 39 hours and corporate-culture covered six months.
The sections route returns Tech, Science, io9, Earther and Reviews with their sub-topics, plus Deals, each with an RSS feed. All 49 slugs, such as gadgets, artificial-intelligence, io9, science and deals, are accepted by the headlines route.
Any slug outside the inventory returns an invalid-params error. Fetch the list rather than guessing a vertical name.
Gizmodo articles are free to read, so article calls on a canonical URL return the full body paragraphs along with metadata.
Headline and top-story items carry title, URL, summary, publication time, author and image. The author route adds name, job title, biography, headshot, social links and recent articles.
The tech section ran from 2026-10-25 09:00 UTC to 2026-10-27 00:13, while corporate-culture's 20 stories ran from 2026-01-21 to 2026-07-18. Check the newest timestamp before treating a section as live.
All 20 stories in each sampled feed had a byline, summary and image, and the news route returned 20 stories from 2026-10-26 15:00 UTC onward, so the cross-section feed behaves like a latest-news strip.
Agent skills

Tech, Science, io9, Earther and Reviews, each with sub-topics, plus Deals. 49 slugs are accepted in total.
The headlines route returns an invalid-params error. Use values exactly as listed by the sections route.
Yes. Gizmodo articles are free to read, so the full body paragraphs are returned.
No. The corporate-culture slug returned stories only up to 2026-07-18 on 2026-10-27. Compare the newest published_at with the retrieval time.
