socialcrawl-mcp

npm version License: MIT

MCP server for SocialCrawl — access 21+ social media platforms through one unified API.

What it does

SocialCrawl MCP gives AI agents instant access to 21 social media platforms and 105 endpoints through a single, unified API. Retrieve profiles, posts, comments, search results, trending content, and analytics from TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Reddit, and more — no per-platform authentication required. Agents discover available endpoints dynamically, so they always work with the latest capabilities without any hardcoded platform logic.

    TDQS

    A4.2/5.0

    Scored across 4 tools

    Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: discovering platforms, discovering endpoints, making API requests, and fetching documentation. There is no overlap or ambiguity between them.

    Naming Consistency4/5

    All tools share the consistent 'socialcrawl_' prefix and use verb-like names. 'list_platforms' and 'list_endpoints' follow a clear verb_noun pattern, while 'request' and 'get_docs' are slightly less uniform but still predictable and readable.

    Tool Count4/5

    With 4 tools, the server is well-scoped for its purpose. It covers the essential workflow (discover, request, learn) without unnecessary bloat. The count is appropriate, though slightly on the smaller side for such a broad platform range.

    Completeness5/5

    The tool set provides full lifecycle coverage for interacting with the SocialCrawl API: listing platforms and endpoints for discovery, making requests for execution, and retrieving docs for guidance. There are no critical gaps that would prevent an agent from accomplishing its tasks.
