Concrete capability record

Data, retrieval, actions, identity, and operating limits

A field-by-field summary of what the reviewed first-party references actually support. Publisher update dates and BYO-UI review dates are shown separately below.

01 · Records and state owned

Granular agent tools over saved searches, tags, news and social mentions, analytics and media-intelligence assets; separate Mira MCP returns orchestrated AI-generated briefs and outcomes

02 · Data you can retrieve

Granular agent tools over saved searches, tags, news and social mentions, analytics and media-intelligence assets; separate Mira MCP returns orchestrated AI-generated briefs and outcomes

03 · Actions and write paths

The targeted review confirmed this Meltwater capability surface: Granular agent tools over saved searches, tags, news and social mentions, analytics and media-intelligence assets; separate Mira MCP returns orchestrated AI-generated briefs and outcomes. It did not normalize every mutation tool. Treat writes as unapproved until each current tool, scope, plan and approval behavior is verified.

04 · Authentication and permissions

Access requires an API-customer MCP package and varies with subscribed products; API-token authentication is current, with OAuth documented as planned, so do not imply universal self-service access. Existing vendor identity, account, tenant, and permission controls should be treated as the authorization boundary.

05 · Monitoring, approval, and recovery

Require explicit human confirmation for costly, externally visible, destructive, or hard-to-reverse actions. Official Meltwater docs distinguish the composable data/tool server from the Mira assistant server. Access requires an API-customer MCP package and varies with subscribed products; API-token authentication is current, with OAuth documented as planned, so do not imply universal self-service access.

06 · Gaps and implementation limits

Official Meltwater docs distinguish the composable data/tool server from the Mira assistant server. Access requires an API-customer MCP package and varies with subscribed products; API-token authentication is current, with OAuth documented as planned, so do not imply universal self-service access.

Role: provider

Read scope: Granular agent tools over saved searches, tags, news and social mentions, analytics and media-intelligence assets; separate Mira MCP returns orchestrated AI-generated briefs and outcomes

Write scope: Write scope was not separately normalized in this pass; inspect the official tool catalog before enabling actions.

Authentication: Access requires an API-customer MCP package and varies with subscribed products; API-token authentication is current, with OAuth documented as planned, so do not imply universal self-service access.

Approval boundary: Require explicit human confirmation for costly, externally visible, destructive, or hard-to-reverse actions.

Protocol does not erase product boundaries.

Confirm the current tool catalog, plan, region, scopes, rate limits, terms, and write behavior before implementation.

Evidence and dates

First-party references, with publisher and review dates separated

“Publisher updated” is shown only when the page exposes an update date. “BYO-UI reviewed” records when this research checked the reference. A missing publisher date is reported as missing—not replaced with the review date.
