Available tools 4

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

framefetch
framefetch_account
Check this account's credit balance/usage. Read-only — never charges; works at zero balance (unlike framefetch_extract). Purpose: check balance before expensive framefetch_extract calls — at session start, periodically, or after a 402. When NOT to use: before every single framefetch_extract call in a tight loop. Returns: balance_micros, spend_7d_micros, calls_7d — micro-USD (1,000,000 = $1). Low balance: top up via x402 (USDC) at POST /v1/topup, or card at POST /v1/checkout.
framefetch_extract
Extract data from ONE public social-video URL (YouTube incl. Shorts, TikTok, Instagram Reels, Pinterest, Reddit): metadata/insights/transcript/frames/digest/comments/etc — see `fields`. When NOT to use: non-video pages, private/login-walled content, or bulk crawling (one URL per call). Returns one JSON object with only the requested fields + a `cost` block (micro-USD); shapes: https://framefetch.net/docs. Cost scales with what you request (frames/transcript cost more than metadata). No key? POST /v1/keys {email} -> instant key (~100 free calls); or x402 (USDC), no account. Example: {"url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=...","fields":["metadata","transcript"]}.
framefetch_platform_capabilities
JSON matrix of data types (metadata, insights, transcript, frames, comments) per platform — YouTube (+Shorts), TikTok, Instagram Reels, Pinterest, Reddit. Call before framefetch_extract to confirm support. No input.
framefetch_search
Search YouTube by keyword (yt-dlp, no login). Returns up to `limit` hits: url/title/uploader/durationSec/uploadDate(often null)/thumbnail/views. YouTube only — use framefetch_extract on a hit's url for transcript/frames/etc. Billed ~$0.002/call (metadata-tier), regardless of `limit`.

Framefetch — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Framefetch do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: framefetch_account, framefetch_extract, framefetch_platform_capabilities, framefetch_search. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Framefetch working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 204 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Framefetch?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Framefetch need an API key?
No. Framefetch completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Framefetch?
It answers our handshake in 204 ms on average, which is faster than 62% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is Framefetch open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
