# Add to your MCP client config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"socialkit": {
"url": "https://mcp.socialkit.dev/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization":
"Bearer ${env:SOCIALKIT_API_KEY}"
}
}
}
}
# Then in Claude / Cursor:
> Summarize this Instagram Reel
and tell me the engagement:
https://www.instagram.com/...
✓ Calls instagram_summarize
✓ Calls instagram_stats
✓ Calls instagram_comments
✓ Returns one-paragraph brief{
"mcpServers": {
"socialkit": {
"url": "https://mcp.socialkit.dev/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer ${env:SOCIALKIT_API_KEY}"
}
}
}
}Export SOCIALKIT_API_KEY before launching Cursor, then add this to .cursor/mcp.json. See the docs for Claude and Codex setup.
Use the Agent Skill instead
If you work in Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex, skip the MCP config. The SocialKit Agent Skill provides task routing and endpoint guidance in one command — and it calls the REST API directly, so no MCP server is required.
- One command, no config file to maintain
- Seven workflow skills: transcripts, summaries, research, discovery, engagement, downloads
- Same access key, same credits as MCP and REST

Agent skill
A drop-in skill for Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex. It teaches them every endpoint, param, and response shape.

@nasa and rank them by viewsMCP server
One config block. Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client gets every SocialKit endpoint as a first-class tool.
{
"mcpServers": {
"socialkit": {
"url": "https://mcp.socialkit.dev/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_KEY"
}
}
}
}REST API
Pipe-friendly and framework-agnostic. Wrap the endpoints as tools in OpenAI, LangChain, CrewAI, or anything with function-calling.
$ curl https://api.socialkit.dev/\
tiktok/stats?url=... \
-H "x-access-key: YOUR_KEY"
→ { likes, views, shares, ... }
1 credit usedZero install
Hosted at mcp.socialkit.dev over HTTP-streamable transport. No binary to download, no `npx -y` to update, no local process to babysit.
Same key, same credits
Uses the SocialKit access key you already have. Tool calls use the same endpoint-specific credit rules as REST, including result-count and duration pricing. Failed calls are unbilled.
Stateless + safe
Server stores nothing. Your access key is forwarded to api.socialkit.dev, never logged. Open source if you want to self-host.
Hook your agent up in 30 seconds
Grab a free API key, paste 8 lines of JSON into your MCP client, and watch your AI start understanding social media.
