SociaVault MCP Server

Give your AI assistant live access to social media data. This Model Context Protocol server lets Claude, Cursor, Cline, VS Code, and any MCP-compatible client pull real-time data from 11 platforms — profiles, posts, comments, transcripts, search, trends, and ad libraries — through natural language.

Powered by SociaVault — a reliable social media data API for developers.

Highlights

• 107 tools across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Facebook, Reddit, Threads, Pinterest, Twitch, and Google.

• Ad library coverage — TikTok, Meta (Facebook/Instagram), Google, and LinkedIn ad libraries for competitor research.

• Zero install — runs via npx, no global install needed.

• Token-efficient — responses are trimmed by default to keep your context window lean.

• Built on the modern MCP SDK (1.x) with typed inputs, structured output, and clear error messages.

Quick start

1. Get an API key

Sign up at sociavault.com — new accounts get free credits to start. Copy your key (format sk_live_…) from the dashboard.

2. Add the server to your client

The server runs with npx, so there's nothing to install. Just add the config below and set your API key.

Claude Desktop

Edit your config file:

• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

• Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sociavault": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "sociavault-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "SOCIAVAULT_API_KEY": "sk_live_your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop.

Cursor

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) or .cursor/mcp.json (per-project):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sociavault": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "sociavault-mcp"],
      "env": { "SOCIAVAULT_API_KEY": "sk_live_your_key_here" }
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

Add to .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "sociavault": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "sociavault-mcp"],
      "env": { "SOCIAVAULT_API_KEY": "sk_live_your_key_here" }
    }
  }
}

Cline / other clients

Any client that supports stdio MCP servers works — point it at the command npx -y sociavault-mcp with SOCIAVAULT_API_KEY in the environment.

Configuration

Usage examples

Once configured, ask your assistant things like:

• "Get the TikTok profile and last 20 videos for @charlidamelio."

• "Search the Meta Ad Library for active ads from Nike in the US."

• "Pull the transcript of this YouTube video: ."

• "What's trending on TikTok in the US right now?"

• "Find Instagram reels using this audio id and summarize the top performers."

• "Search Reddit for mentions of my product in the last week."

• "Get the comments on this tweet and summarize the sentiment."

Tools

All tools are read-only. Most accept a trim flag (default true) that returns a smaller, AI-friendly payload; set trim: false for the full raw response. List endpoints accept a pagination cursor returned in the previous response.

Pricing

The MCP server is free and open source. You only pay for the SociaVault API usage it makes, billed as credits (each API call costs credits depending on the endpoint).

• Free — credits included on signup, no card required.

• Credit packs — Starter ($29), Growth ($79), Pro ($199), and Enterprise ($399), each granting a larger bundle of credits.

Credits don't expire on a monthly cycle — you buy a pack and draw it down. See the current packs and credit amounts at sociavault.com/pricing, and check your balance any time with the check_credits tool.

Troubleshooting

"Missing SOCIAVAULT_API_KEY" — Add your key to the env block of the MCP config and restart the client.

"Authentication failed (401)" — Your key is wrong or expired, or it's not in the sk_live_… format. Generate a fresh one in the dashboard.

"Out of credits (402)" — Top up at sociavault.com/pricing.

"Not found (404)" — The handle/URL is wrong, or the account/content is private or deleted.

Server not showing up — Make sure Node.js 18+ is installed and on your PATH, confirm the JSON config is valid, and fully restart the client. Most clients have an MCP log panel that shows startup errors.

Development

git clone https://github.com/olamide-olaniyan/sociavault-mcp.git
cd sociavault-mcp
npm install
npm run build

# Run locally
SOCIAVAULT_API_KEY=sk_live_your_key node dist/index.js

Adding a new endpoint is a single entry in src/endpoints.ts — the server registers every entry automatically.
