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

Endpoint catalog
/cbr/headlinesReturns fresh headlines from one public CBR RSS section. Video pages, if a section ever returns them, have type video and are not readable through the article endpoint.
MCP tool cbr_headlines
/cbr/newsReturns about 10 of the latest CBR stories from the site's main feed, with no input needed. Each has a title, canonical URL, summary, publication time, author names (co-authors joined with a comma) and lead image.
MCP tool cbr_news
/cbr/sectionsLists the 28 CBR section slugs accepted by `cbr-headlines`, grouped by movies, TV, comics, anime and games with news, reviews, features and lists variants, plus `lists` and `cbr-exclusives`. Each entry has a `slug` (for example `news-movies` or `comics/reviews`), a display `name` and the feed `url`.
MCP tool cbr_sections
/cbr/articleReturns a CBR article by `url`, a canonical `cbr.com` address of the form `/<slug>/`: title, description, publication and update times, section, authors, image and the body `paragraphs`. Section, video, author and category pages are rejected as invalid. `paywalled` is `true` only if the page declares the article not free, and then `paragraphs` may be a teaser.
MCP tool cbr_article
/cbr/authorReturns a CBR author profile from `url`, a canonical `https://www.cbr.com/author/<slug>/` address; paginated `/page/N/` URLs are rejected. The response has name, `title`, biography, image, `social_links` and about 20 items from the profile's Latest module, with no older pages available.

How to scrape CBR
CBR's granular categories let you keep a review, a feature, a list, and a breaking franchise item distinct in an entertainment dataset. Movies, television, and comics each have news, features, reviews, and lists in CBR's taxonomy. Use those format labels when assessing release announcements: a ranked list or retrospective can refer to a franchise without reporting a new event. The 2026-09-26 movie feed included Hulu's October slate and an X-Men reboot analysis, illustrating the difference. Keep the format, franchise, date, and article URL with each record so a reader can inspect whether a title is primary reporting or commentary.
Choose movies, TV, comics, then a news, features, reviews, or lists section.
Use headlines or news to obtain the current category feed.
Use article and author routes for its full public content and attribution.
FAQ
Yes. Its public sections break movies, TV, and comics into dedicated news, feature, review, and list feeds.
The 5-endpoint integration returns the public data documented for each CBR route. Article, headline, news, and section feeds vary by publisher; an author-related route is also listed, and its behavior is platform-specific.
