Counting every mention, coverage of Model Context Protocol is steady — it appears in 1,485 analyzed articles across the technology press.

How to read this
The stream below stacks each month's coverage by the lens you choose: Tone (how the press frames the story — promotional, skeptical, critical, or neutral), Story type (launches, funding, lawsuits, partnerships…), or Stage — how far the reported claim has gone: speculation → announcement → launch → results.
Taller bands mean more coverage that month; the dots beneath mark notable non‑neutral events. Every signal is sourced and dated.
How this is counted — why the article numbers differ
1,485 articles mention Model Context Protocol across the corpus. The coverage make-up above is measured on the 648 of them that were read into dated, classified coverage items — and one article can produce more than one item, because story type, claim stage and framing are read separately.

Press coverage and company and project posts are two separate counts. Every press figure on this page, including the monthly line and the rising or falling call, comes from the independent press only. Before October 2026, Compass counted these posts as press coverage. How this is measured.
