Managed Execution
Jede Zahl unten stammt direkt aus dem Live-Vanguard-Endpunktkatalog — 5 Endpunkte, 9 dokumentierte Request-Parameter und 5 veröffentlichte Response-Schemas — demselben Katalog, gegen den auch Docs und Playground laufen.
5 documented Vanguard endpoints, grouped into 5 request families — Article, Author and Headlines, plus 2 more.
9 request parameters are documented across those Vanguard endpoints, 8 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
5 of the 5 Vanguard endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 5 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
Vanguard endpoints document their error responses (400, 404 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 Vanguard endpoints, so an agent can call the same routes with the same parameters and the same JSON contract, with no custom glue.

Endpunktkatalog
/vanguardng/articleReturns one Vanguard (Nigeria) story by its `url`, a vanguardngr.com link in the `/YYYY/MM/<slug>/` form; section pages and feeds are rejected. The response has the title, description, times, section, authors, lead image and body `paragraphs`. Vanguard has no paywall, so `paywalled` is never set.
MCP-Tool vanguardng_article
/vanguardng/authorVanguard publishes no author profile pages, so this returns the recent articles in one public feed (site-wide by default, or one section) credited to a byline, matched on the on-page "By <Name>" line or the site's creator field.
MCP-Tool vanguardng_author
/vanguardng/headlinesLists up to 20 recent Vanguard stories from one category. `section` is required and takes one of 42 slugs such as `national-news`, `politics`, `business`, `sports`, `business/energy` or `more/metro`. Items carry title, URL, summary, author and publication time. An unknown section returns an invalid-params error.
MCP-Tool vanguardng_headlines
/vanguardng/newsReturns the latest 20 Vanguard (Nigeria) stories with no parameters. Each has a title, URL, summary, publication time and image where available. `author` is the site's account name, often a desk account such as `Nwafor`; use `vanguardng-article` for the on-page byline.
MCP-Tool vanguardng_news
/vanguardng/sectionsLists the 42 Vanguard sections accepted by `vanguardng-headlines`. Each has a `slug` (nested categories contain a `/`, as in `business/energy`), a display `name` and a feed `url`. `national-news` is the site's News category and `promoted` is sponsored content. Takes no parameters.

So scrapst du Vanguard
Vanguard is a Nigerian national newspaper with politics, business, metro, regional news, sport, entertainment, and editorial coverage. Nigeria's federal and state contexts matter for public-affairs research: a Lagos transport issue and a national economic measure can share keywords while involving different authorities. Its `/vanguardng/author` route is a byline search, not a contributor profile: each request scans one 20-item feed, and a miss means the byline was not in that recent window. Preserve the state, institution, section, and byline with each article before aggregating a topic trend.
Call /vanguardng/sections to inspect the publisher's current taxonomy. Inspect news, politics, business, metro, and editorial sections to find the right scope. Local coverage may reveal state-level implementation of federal decisions.
Use /vanguardng/headlines for a selected section and /vanguardng/news for the broader current stream. Collect current headlines for the relevant desk and retain publication time. Keep sport and entertainment streams outside a policy sample unless the question includes them.
Pass a canonical story URL to /vanguardng/article for its public body and metadata. For byline discovery, call /vanguardng/author with a name and optional supported section; it scans one 20-item feed and returns recent matching stories, not a biography or complete archive. A not-found result means no match in that feed window. Keep the byline, state, agency, and article date with each record.
FAQ
Yes, when each article is read for its actual location and institution. Use section feeds for discovery, but do not assume every metro story is about the same city or every political story concerns federal government.
Keep editorial pieces separate from reported developments and attribute judgments to the writer. They can show public debate, while article-level evidence and external official sources are needed for factual event claims.
No. Vanguard publishes no author profile pages. The endpoint scans one 20-item public feed for a case-insensitive byline match and returns recent matching articles; a not-found response means no matching story was in that feed window, not that the person has no other Vanguard stories.
