Common questions

Is ToolSocket 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: TOOLSOCKET_API_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

Either way works: install it on your computer or connect to the cloud version.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.0) reached the registry 9 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

ToolSocket

660+ data tools for AI agents. One API key. Pay per call.

TikTok · Douyin · Instagram · YouTube · X · Reddit · Weibo · Bilibili · Zhihu · Kuaishou · Threads · LinkedIn · GitHub · Wikipedia · weather · FX · crypto …

ToolSocket is a remote MCP server plus a REST API. Your agent searches the catalog, inspects a tool's schema, and runs it. Every call is paid from one prepaid balance. You don't need an account with each platform, and there's no subscription.

This repository is the open-source CLI and stdio MCP bridge. The server lives at https://toolsocket.top.

Connect your agent (no install needed)

The MCP endpoint is:

https://toolsocket.top/mcp

Client	How
Claude.ai / Claude Desktop	Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → paste the URL → sign in → Allow
ChatGPT	Settings → Apps & Connectors → Developer mode → Create → paste the URL, auth OAuth
Claude Code	`claude mcp add --transport http toolsocket https://toolsocket.top/mcp`, then `/mcp` → Authenticate
Cursor / VS Code / Windsurf / Codex	copy-paste configs at [toolsocket.top/docs](https://toolsocket.top/docs)

OAuth clients only need a sign-in. Clients that take headers can use an API key from the Console instead: Authorization: Bearer ts_live_….

CLI

npx -y toolsocket login                      # paste a ts_live_ key from toolsocket.top/console

npx -y toolsocket discover "douyin hot search" npx -y toolsocket inspect openmeteo#forecast npx -y toolsocket run openmeteo#forecast -i city=Tokyo -i days=2 npx -y toolsocket balance

Or install it globally with npm i -g toolsocket.

Command
`login [--key …]`	Save your API key to `~/.config/toolsocket/config.json` (mode 600)
`discover [-n 10]`	Plain-language search, in English or 中文
`inspect`	Description, input schema, example
`run [-i k=v]…`	Run a tool. `-i` takes `k=v`, `'{"json":true}'` or `@file.json`
`get`	Fetch a run that is still in progress
`balance`	Balance and today's spend
`mcp`	stdio ⇄ remote MCP bridge (see below)
`logout`	Forget the saved key

Add --json to any command to get machine-readable output. Exit codes: 0 ok, 1 error, 2 the run failed, 3 balance too low.

Environment variables: TOOLSOCKET_API_KEY overrides the saved key. TOOLSOCKET_URL points the CLI at another server.

stdio MCP bridge

Some clients can only launch a local command (Cline, Zed, older Claude Desktop configs). For those, add:

"mcpServers": { "toolsocket": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "toolsocket", "mcp"], "env": { "TOOLSOCKET_API_KEY": "ts_live_…" } } } }

The four MCP tools

Your agent sees four meta-tools, not 660 tool definitions, so its context stays small:

Tool	Does
`discover_tools(query, limit?)`	Ranked search with price and live health
`inspect_tool(tool)`	Full description, input JSON Schema, example
`run_tool(tool, input)`	Runs the tool; waits up to 30 s, otherwise returns a run id
`get_run(run_id)`	Status and output of a run

Pricing

Social-platform data costs mostly $0.0015 per call. Open-data tools are free.
Each tool shows its price before you run it.
Upstream errors and timeouts are refunded automatically.
You can set daily and per-key spend limits in the Console.

Development

The CLI has zero dependencies and is a single file: bin/toolsocket.js.
