In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@pulse-mcpmetrics for https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
pulse-mcp
MCP server for Pulse — a free, agent-first social-post metrics API. Give any MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, …) the numbers behind any public post: hand it a URL, get back views, likes, comments, and the publish date as clean JSON. No signup, no API key.
{ "mcpServers": { "pulse": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "pulse-mcp"] } } }That's it — drop it in your MCP config and your agent has five new tools.
Tools
Tool | Input | Output |
| one post URL (short links like |
|
| many URLs (mixed post + profile URLs welcome) | the same, one per URL (partial failures don't fail the batch) |
| one post or profile URL (+ optional | the recorded growth curve — |
| one profile URL | account-level metrics — |
| many profile URLs (max 50) | same as |
Example — ask your agent "how did this video do?" with a link, and it gets:
{
"platform": "youtube",
"views": 1781088936,
"likes": 19147197,
"comments": null,
"publishedAt": "2009-10-25T06:57:33.000Z",
"title": "Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up (Official Video)"

Threads | post metrics need a login | post metrics → |
— (posts need login) | post metrics → |
It reads each platform's own public pages from a residential IP, so it sees what a browser
sees — and it's honest about the edges: a deleted/private post comes back content_unavailable,
a login-walled one login_required, never a silent row of zeros.
