Socials MCP

Give Claude superpowers on X, LinkedIn, and Reddit.

Install

1. Install the Socials Chrome extension

2. In Claude Code:

/plugin marketplace add Brainrot-Creations/claude-plugins

/plugin install socials@brainrot-creations

/reload-plugins

Done. Talk to Claude naturally:

• "Connect with 100 LinkedIn recruiters hiring for React roles"

• "Find Reddit threads about note-taking and mention my app naturally"

• "Reply to 50 X posts about indie hacking and promote my SaaS"

How it works

The MCP server runs locally and bridges Claude to your browser via a WebSocket connection to the Socials extension. All actions happen through your real browser session — no API keys, no rate limits.

Troubleshooting

• Port 9847 in use — Kill stale node processes or set SOCIALS_MCP_RECLAIM_PORT=1

• Extension not connecting — Open the Socials side panel, then reload

• Tools not working — Make sure you're signed into Socials

Development

npm install
npm run build       # build dist/
npm run typecheck   # type check
npm run release:dry # preview a release without publishing

Use local MCP in plugin dev mode

1. Build local MCP:

cd socials/mcp
npm run build

1. Set dev mode in claude-plugins/plugins/socials/.mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "socials": {
      "env": {
        "SOCIALS_MCP_DEV_MODE": "1",
        "SOCIALS_MCP_DEV_MCP_PATH": "/absolute/path/to/socials/mcp/dist/index.cjs"
      }
    }
  }
}

1. Restart Claude Code.

To switch back to published npm package, set "SOCIALS_MCP_DEV_MODE": "0" and restart.

Releases are automated via CI — push to main with [release:patch], [release:minor], or [release:major] in the commit message to fast-track publishing.
