Today is the operative word: we check Socialclaw every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: SOCIALCLAW_API_KEY (SocialClaw workspace API key from https://getsocialclaw.com/dashboard). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Available tools 32

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

instagram

delete_instagram_comment

Permanently delete an Instagram comment on the user's media. Prefer hide_instagram_comment when unsure.

get_instagram_account_insights

Get an Instagram account's insight trend (a daily time series, e.g. reach) over the last N days.

get_instagram_comments

Read the comments (and replies) on an Instagram post. Use list_instagram_media first to get a mediaId.

get_instagram_media_insights

Get analytics for one Instagram post (reach, likes, comments, saved, shares, views). Use list_instagram_media for the mediaId.

get_instagram_messages

Read the messages in an Instagram direct-message conversation.

get_instagram_profile

Get an Instagram account's profile stats: followers, follows, media count, bio.

list_instagram_conversations

List the Instagram direct-message conversations for an account, most recent first. Each conversation includes `counterpart` (the other person's {id, username}) — use its id as the recipientId when replying; `participants` also lists the account itself.

list_instagram_media

List an Instagram account's recent posts (caption, permalink, timestamp, comment count) so you can find one to read or moderate comments on. account is the connected-account id or handle.

list_instagram_mentions

List recent @mentions of the workspace's Instagram accounts (captured from Instagram mention webhooks).

post

get_post

Get one post including its delivery state and provider identifiers.

post_attempts

List publish attempts for a post, including provider errors. Use this to debug failed posts.

workspace

workspace_health

Get workspace health, including connection state across providers. Pass provider to check one provider's connections.

workspace_usage

Get workspace usage counters and plan entitlement consumption.

account

account_capabilities

Get publish capabilities and provider rules for connected accounts: what media is allowed, text limits, and whether publishing is currently possible. Pass accountId for one account, or provider to filter, or neither for all.

accounts

list_accounts

List connected social accounts in the SocialClaw workspace. Optionally filter by provider (x, facebook, instagram_business, instagram, threads, linkedin, linkedin_page, pinterest, tiktok, telegram, discord, youtube, reddit, wordpress).

analytics

get_analytics

Get analytics snapshots for a post, an account, or a run. scope must be post, account, or run; id is the matching identifier.

apply

apply_schedule

Create a publishing run from a schedule document. Posts are scheduled or published through connected accounts. Send an idempotencyKey so retries do not create duplicate runs.

assets

list_assets

List media (images/videos) the user has uploaded to their SocialClaw library, newest first. Each asset includes a publicUrl usable directly as media_link in validate_schedule/apply_schedule. Use this to find a previously uploaded file (e.g. from the dashboard) to post. Optionally filter by kind (image/video), mime, or a text query over filename/id.

cancel

cancel_post

Cancel a scheduled post before it publishes.

connect

connect_account

Start connecting a new social account. For OAuth providers this returns an authorizeUrl the user must open in a browser. Telegram requires botToken and chatId; Discord requires webhookUrl.

hide

hide_instagram_comment

Hide or unhide an Instagram comment on the user's media. Set hidden=false to unhide.

posts

list_posts

List posts in the workspace with optional filters.

preview

preview_campaign

Preview how a campaign schedule document expands into concrete posts and steps without creating anything.

publish

publish_draft

Publish a previously created draft run, optionally at a given ISO-8601 start time.

react

react_instagram_message

React to a received Instagram direct message (e.g. love).

refresh

refresh_analytics

Fetch fresh analytics for a published post from the provider and store a new snapshot, then return it. Supported providers: Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, X, Pinterest, Snapchat (others return an unsupported snapshot). Call this before get_analytics when you need current numbers rather than the last stored snapshot.

reply_instagram_comment

Reply to an Instagram comment on the user's media.

retry

retry_post

Retry a failed post.

send

send_instagram_message

Send an Instagram direct message — a text reply, or an image/video attachment via attachment_url. Only allowed within 24 hours of the recipient's last message unless a message tag (e.g. HUMAN_AGENT) is supplied.

status

run_status

Get the status summary of a publishing run and its posts.

upload

upload_asset

Upload media (image or video) to SocialClaw hosted storage. Provide either sourceUrl (a public URL the server downloads) or contentBase64. Returns an asset id and a public URL usable as media_link in schedules.

validate

validate_schedule

Validate a schedule document against provider rules, media limits, account state, and publish times WITHOUT creating any posts. Always run this before apply_schedule.

Socialclaw — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Socialclaw do?

It exposes 32 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: account_capabilities, apply_schedule, cancel_post, connect_account, delete_instagram_comment, get_analytics and 26 more. 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 →

What is Socialclaw mostly used for?

Its tools cluster around instagram, post and workspace. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.

Is Socialclaw working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 284 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Socialclaw?

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 Socialclaw need an API key?

No. Socialclaw completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 32 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Socialclaw?

It answers our handshake in 284 ms on average, which is faster than 52% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

How many people use Socialclaw?

The npm package socialclaw was installed 142 times in the last week. Week over week that is +1%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is Socialclaw open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript and 87 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.
