SocialCrawl missed one check this week

Everything else answered, so this is steady rather than shaky. We check every 15 minutes, which is how a one-off gets told apart from the start of a pattern, and how you hear about the next one within the hour instead of from your users.

Available tools 7

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

socialcrawl

socialcrawl_account

Free checks: balance (with this session's spend), transactions (itemised ledger; the receipts for one request_id), status (platform health; read it before retrying a 502/503) and freshness (whether this server's bundled catalogue is behind the API).

socialcrawl_collect

Walk a paged endpoint (id, platform+resource or path) to `items` unique rows, the last page or max_credits: cursors supplied, duplicates dropped, stops on a 402, refused free when one page exceeds max_credits. Small results come back whole. result_id (+offset, limit, format) reads a stored result, free. Spends credits.

socialcrawl_endpoint

Read before calling: one endpoint's purpose, params, where the rows are and up to 25 response fields, cost rule, paging, latency, timeout, next endpoints and a sample link. id (or platform+resource, path), a platform slug (its endpoints) or a guide topic. Free.

socialcrawl_estimate

Exact credits before you spend: one call (id, platform+resource or path, plus the params you will send; calls for a job total; items for a walk) or a plan of several calls. Uses the API's estimator when available, else the bundled pricing. A platform slug gives its price table; no id gives the pricing overview. Free.

socialcrawl_find

Start here: a task in plain words -> the best endpoints (3 by default) of 646, each with the params the task supplies (URLs and @handles resolved), the params still missing, the credit cost and the exact call. With no task it lists platforms, or one platform's endpoints. Free; no key needed.

socialcrawl_manage

Stateful work by area + action: monitors (scheduled recipes, webhooks, alerts), cohorts (mention search over your own panel of accounts), web (scrape, search, crawl and agent jobs, change monitors, browser sessions) and jobs (Prism background jobs). A wrong field is refused free with the rules. Managing is free; scrapes, jobs, queries and monitor runs bill credits. dry_run: true validates and quotes a create/update and never creates it. rows_new alerts need track (id=monitors).

socialcrawl_request

Call one endpoint (platform+resource, or id, or path). Validated locally first (a bad call is free), quoted, refused above max_credits and confirmed above the threshold. A large page is cut at row boundaries; socialcrawl_collect result_id reads the rest. Spends credits; needs SOCIALCRAWL_API_KEY.

SocialCrawl — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can SocialCrawl do?

It exposes 7 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: socialcrawl_account, socialcrawl_collect, socialcrawl_endpoint, socialcrawl_estimate, socialcrawl_find, socialcrawl_manage and 1 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 →

Is SocialCrawl 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 176 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

Did SocialCrawl ever remove tools?

Yes. socialcrawl_check_balance, socialcrawl_cohorts, socialcrawl_discover, socialcrawl_get_docs and 5 more are no longer exposed — we recorded the date each one disappeared. A tool vanishing usually means a breaking change for anything that depended on it.

How do I connect SocialCrawl?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does SocialCrawl need an API key?

No. SocialCrawl completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 7 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is SocialCrawl?

It answers our handshake in 176 ms on average, which is faster than 77% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

How many people use SocialCrawl?

The npm package socialcrawl-mcp was installed 222 times in the last week. Week over week that is +75%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is SocialCrawl open source?

The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at mcp.socialcrawl.dev, which runs on its operator's own terms.
