Managed Execution
Jede Zahl unten stammt direkt aus dem Live-PC Gamer-Endpunktkatalog — 5 Endpunkte, 10 dokumentierte Request-Parameter und 5 veröffentlichte Response-Schemas — demselben Katalog, gegen den auch Docs und Playground laufen.
5 documented PC Gamer endpoints, grouped into 5 request families — Article, Author and Headlines, plus 2 more.
10 request parameters are documented across those PC Gamer endpoints, 7 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
5 of the 5 PC Gamer endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 5 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
PC Gamer 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 PC Gamer endpoints, so an agent can call the same routes with the same parameters and the same JSON contract, with no custom glue.

Endpunktkatalog

MCP-Tool pcgamer_article
/pcgamer/authorReturns a PC Gamer author profile by `slug` (for example `harvey-randall`) or a pcgamer.com author `url`; supply exactly one. `page` picks the 1-based page of recent articles (default 1) and overrides a `/page/<n>` segment in `url`. The response has `name`, `job_title`, `biography`, `social_links`, articles, `page` and `has_next_page`.
MCP-Tool pcgamer_author
/pcgamer/headlinesReturns recent PC Gamer headlines for one section. `section` is required and takes one of eight slugs: `deals`, `games`, `gaming-industry`, `guides`, `hardware`, `movies-tv`, `news` or `software`. Each item has a title and URL, and may include summary, author, publication time and image.
MCP-Tool pcgamer_headlines
/pcgamer/newsReturns the current PC Gamer top stories, with no parameters. Each item has a title and URL, and may include summary, author, publication time and image. Use `pcgamer-headlines` to read one section.

So scrapst du PC Gamer
PC Gamer is a Future publication focused on computer games and the hardware used to play them. Its review policy uses a 100-point scale, generally leaves Early Access games unscored, and says game review scores are final even when later coverage follows updates; selected hardware scores can change. Preserve review type, score, and publication date rather than comparing a guide or review-in-progress with a final verdict. The section endpoint exposes top-level hubs, while the main news endpoint uses the public RSS feed.
Query /pcgamer/sections and send a returned hub to /pcgamer/headlines. Keep the hub in your records: a review of a new GPU belongs to a different evidence set from a patch guide for a game.
/pcgamer/news supplies fresh top stories. Merge it with selected hub results by canonical URL, then retain both placements if you are examining what PC Gamer chooses to promote.
Pass canonical URLs to /pcgamer/article to collect article text and metadata. /pcgamer/author adds a writer’s biography and one page of recent work; do not treat that page as a complete publication history.
FAQ
Yes, as editorial evidence: retain review titles, URLs, publication dates and the article text returned from public pages. Product benchmark conclusions still need to be read in their original context.
Guides describe how to play or configure something; reviews evaluate a release or device. Keeping those formats separate prevents a count of guide updates from looking like new product verdicts.
PC Gamer says game scores are final, while selected hardware scores may change as the product landscape changes. Store the score with the article's date and review type, and do not assume every new article revises an older verdict.
