Company and watchlist Article feeds now have a Primary / All filter switch.

Select Primary to filter the feed to articles where the company is the primary focus of the news, dropping articles like morning market wraps and index roundups where the company is one of many that were mentioned. All keeps the full article set and remains the feed default, so nothing changes unless you ask for it.

Tip: Press i to quickly toggle between Primary and All.

Our web app has a new look, built to get out of the way of the news. Thin dividing lines and subtle shifts in shade separate content now, in place of boxed cards and drop shadows.

Long feeds read as one surface instead of a grid of competing boxes. There is less around each story, so the coverage sits forward.

What changed:

• The same calmer layout across feeds, watchlists, notifications, and the calendar.
• Menus, dialogs, and filters share one cleaner look.
• Clear in both light and dark mode.

Nothing moved. Everything is where you left it, with less around it.

The MCP server now supports standards-based OAuth for authentication. Previously, to connect to our MCP server you needed to generate an API key and paste it into your tool or a config file. Now you can simply approve access once in your browser and the client will connect on its own. The client registers itself, stores the token securely, and handles renewal — there is no key to copy, store, or rotate by hand.

We're following the standard MCP authorization flow, so it should work the same way across clients. Most MCP-capable tools can connect by pointing to our MCP server URL and completing the browser-based sign-in:

https://nordicfinancialnews.com/mcp

In Claude Desktop, open Customize → Connectors, choose Add custom connector, enter that URL with a name, click Add, then authorize the connection in your browser. Cursor, Codex, and VS Code follow the same pattern through their own MCP connector settings.

For Claude Code, we've packaged the connection into a Claude plugin, so setup is two commands and a sign-in:

/plugin marketplace add nordic-financial-news/nfn-plugin
/plugin install nordic-financial-news@nordic-financial-news
/mcp

Running /mcp opens the browser to sign in and choose which account to connect. Once approved, the full set of tools is available — search and retrieval for articles, stories, companies, and calendar events, reference data, and access to your watchlists.

Static API keys still work for the REST API and for any client that doesn't support OAuth. You can review or disconnect any connection under Settings → Connected Applications.
