Announcing: SocialAPIs is Now Available in MCP Registry!

We shipped first-class Model Context Protocol support. Claude Desktop, ChatGPT Custom Integrations, Cursor, and any MCP-aware client can now call every SocialAPIs endpoint as a native tool, using your API token.

SocialAPIs Team·January 15, 2025

We're excited to announce that SocialAPIs is now officially available in the Model Context Protocol (MCP) Registry!

🎉 Big News!

Today marks a major milestone for SocialAPIs. We've officially published our MCP server to the Model Context Protocol Registry, making it incredibly easy to use social media data in AI applications.

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol is a new standard created by Anthropic that allows AI assistants to seamlessly connect with external tools and data sources. Think of it as a universal adapter for AI agents.

With MCP, you can give AI assistants like Claude the ability to:

  • Access real-time data
  • Execute actions in external services
  • Work with files and databases
  • And much more!

Why This Matters

Before MCP, integrating APIs with AI tools required:

  • Complex custom code
  • Manual authentication handling
  • Platform-specific implementations
  • Constant maintenance

With MCP + SocialAPIs, you can:

  • Install in seconds with npm
  • Access 12+ social media tools instantly
  • No code required for basic usage
  • Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, VSCode, and more

Getting Started

1. Install

bash
1npm install -g @socialapis/mcp

2. Configure

Add to your Claude Desktop config:

json
1{
2  "mcpServers": {
3    "socialapis": {
4      "command": "npx",
5      "args": ["-y", "@socialapis/mcp", "YOUR_API_KEY"]
6    }
7  }
8}

3. Use!

Just ask Claude natural language questions:

"What's Nike's follower count on Facebook?"

"Compare engagement rates between Coca-Cola and Pepsi"

"Analyze the comments on this Facebook post"
