Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Social media data for agents: profiles, posts, comments, search, ads, transcripts.

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: SOCIALSCRAPE_API_KEY

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: SOCIALSCRAPE_API_KEY

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

You need

  • PyPIPython’s uv installed (for the uvx 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": {
    "socialscrape": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "socialscrape-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "SOCIALSCRAPE_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add socialscrape --env SOCIALSCRAPE_API_KEY=your-value -- uvx socialscrape-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": {
    "socialscrape": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "socialscrape-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "SOCIALSCRAPE_API_KEY": "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": {
    "socialscrape": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "socialscrape-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "SOCIALSCRAPE_API_KEY": "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

  • SOCIALSCRAPE_API_KEY secret required env
    Your SocialScrape API key.

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

What it can do

Runs on your computer; the tool list appears in your AI app after you install it.

Common questions

Is Socialscrape 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: SOCIALSCRAPE_API_KEY

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 (0.1.2) reached the registry today.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Python (uv) on your computer.

What can I use instead?

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

socialscrape-mcp

The SocialScrape MCP server: social media data (profiles, posts, comments, search, ads, transcripts) for Claude, Cursor and any other MCP client that starts a local server.

It is generated from SocialScrape's endpoint registry and grouped so an agent sees a usable number of tools instead of one per endpoint:

ToolsWhat
get_transcript, search, get_profile, get_post, get_commentsThe jobs agents do most, across platforms. The platform is an argument.
one per platform (github, facebook, twitter, ...)resource picks the data (user, profile.posts, ...); parameters follow.
describeExact parameters, allowed values, price, example arguments. Free, no API call.
call_endpoint, batch, get_job, monitors, get_creditsAny endpoint by id, up to 100 requests in one call, async jobs, webhooks, balance.

Only built endpoints appear as tools. A platform shows up in the next release after its endpoints are built.

Every result starts with ok | credits charged: 1 | credits remaining: 4999 (and the structured copy carries the numbers as fields). Failures are free and come back as isError with the API's error code, a retryable flag and what to do next.

Use it

The server runs on your own machine. Your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor) starts it as a subprocess over stdio. SocialScrape does not run a hosted MCP server, so there is no MCP URL to connect to.

{ "mcpServers": { "socialscrape": {

"command": "uvx", "args": ["socialscrape-mcp"], "env": { "SOCIALSCRAPE_API_KEY": "ss_live_..." } } } }

Get a key at https://socialscrape.dev/sign-up?utm_source=github&utm_medium=repo&utm_campaign=socialscrape-mcp. Tool discovery works without a key; a tool call without one explains how to add it.

Fewer tools. Some clients cap the number of tools (Cursor warns past 40). Narrow the list in the env block:

Setting
only some platformsSOCIALSCRAPE_PLATFORMS=github,threads
only the cross-platform and account toolsSOCIALSCRAPE_TOOLSETS=core
only the platform toolsSOCIALSCRAPE_TOOLSETS=platforms

With core alone an agent still reaches every endpoint through describe and call_endpoint.

Serve it over HTTP yourself. For a client that can only reach a URL, install the extra and run the server on a host you control: pip install 'socialscrape-mcp[http]', then socialscrape-mcp http --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8080. Each request carries its own key in the x-api-key header (or Authorization: Bearer ...), and ?platforms= and ?toolsets= narrow the tools. This is yours to run and secure; SocialScrape does not offer it as a service.

Settings (environment)
