Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

X, YouTube, TikTok and LinkedIn data plus video transcripts in one stdio MCP server. Pay per result.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Marketing & social media
  • You need to fill in: APIFY_TOKEN

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • You fill in yourself: APIFY_TOKEN

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "social-data": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "social-data-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "APIFY_TOKEN": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add social-data --env APIFY_TOKEN=your-value -- npx -y social-data-mcp

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "social-data": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "social-data-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "APIFY_TOKEN": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "social-data": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "social-data-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "APIFY_TOKEN": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • APIFY_TOKEN secret required env
    Your Apify API token (console.apify.com/account/integrations). Free account works; you pay per result.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is Social Data MCP safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: APIFY_TOKEN

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.2.0) reached the registry 21 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: MCP YouTube Transcript, Google Analytics MCP, BibiGPT YouTube Video Summarizer

social-data-mcp

Pay-per-result data tools — X/Twitter profiles & tweets, YouTube videos & channels, TikTok profiles & video stats, YouTube / TikTok transcripts, and LinkedIn companies & public profiles — exposed to AI agents as MCP servers and as Agent Skills. They run on Apify. No platform API key is needed and nothing logs in on its own; the one exception is full X timelines, which need cookies from a session of your own (X shows logged-out visitors only an account's latest few posts). You are charged only for results that actually came back, at the same price on every Apify plan (free included).

The YouTube and TikTok tools can also return the transcript alongside the stats (includeSubtitles: true, no extra charge).

Narrower single-purpose variants of the same code, for when you want exactly one thing: x-profile-data · single-tweet-scraper · youtube-video-stats · tiktok-follower-count · tiktok-video-stats.

Use as an MCP server (hosted, no install)

Apify hosts an MCP endpoint for every Actor. Add one URL to any client that supports remote MCP servers (Claude, Cursor, VS Code, …) and authenticate with your Apify account when prompted:

https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=nick.cheng/x-twitter-profile-tweets-scraper,nick.cheng/youtube-video-channel-scraper,nick.cheng/tiktok-profile-stats-scraper,nick.cheng/youtube-transcript-scraper,nick.cheng/tiktok-transcript-scraper,nick.cheng/linkedin-company-profile-scraper

Or pick one: https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=nick.cheng/youtube-transcript-scraper.

The servers are also listed in the official MCP Registry as io.github.mrocker/x-twitter-profile-tweets, io.github.mrocker/youtube-video-channel, io.github.mrocker/tiktok-profile-stats, io.github.mrocker/youtube-transcripts, io.github.mrocker/tiktok-transcripts, io.github.mrocker/linkedin-company-profile (see servers/), and the first three on Smithery: nick-cheng/x-twitter-profile-tweets · nick-cheng/youtube-video-channel · nick-cheng/tiktok-profile-stats (the Smithery gateway forwards your Apify token as a token query parameter).

Use as a local stdio server

Published on npm as social-data-mcp and in the MCP Registry as io.github.mrocker/social-data-mcp:

{

"mcpServers": { "social-data": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "social-data-mcp"], "env": { "APIFY_TOKEN": " " } } } }

This is a thin wrapper that starts Apify's own @apify/actors-mcp-server pre-scoped to the six Actors above. Get a token at https://console.apify.com/account/integrations (free account is enough).

Use as Agent Skills

npx skills add mrocker/social-data-mcp

Installs six skills — x-twitter-profile-tweets, youtube-video-channel, tiktok-profile-stats, youtube-transcripts, tiktok-transcripts, linkedin-company-profile — each a short SKILL.md telling the agent when to call the tool, how (one curl), what comes back, and what the tool cannot do.

What these tools will not do

Keyword search on X, follower lists, reply threads, TikTok video lists per account, LinkedIn people/company search, employee lists and Sales Navigator (all login-only), and speech recognition of their own (transcripts are the platforms' own captions; a video without captions gets none). Full X timelines need cookies you supply; nothing here signs in on its own or uses anyone else's account. The READMEs on Apify say so up front.

*Correction (October 2026):* earlier versions of this page said YouTube transcripts were impossible and that nothing here needed a login. The first was true only of the YouTube web player's caption links, the only ones we had tested; the second stopped being true for X timelines when X rebuilt its web app.
