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 ShortVidAPI — Short-Form Video, Creators & Ads Data MCP Server working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 34 of 34 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 460 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect ShortVidAPI — Short-Form Video, Creators & Ads Data MCP Server?
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. You sign in through your browser once and the client keeps the session: no key to copy, and it refuses anonymous clients.
How do you sign in to ShortVidAPI — Short-Form Video, Creators & Ads Data MCP Server?
No API key is involved. ShortVidAPI — Short-Form Video, Creators & Ads Data MCP Server answers our knock with an OAuth challenge, so you authorise it once in your browser and the client keeps the session. That is also why we see no tool list: it will not describe itself to an anonymous client, and that is the server working as intended, not a fault.
How fast is ShortVidAPI — Short-Form Video, Creators & Ads Data MCP Server?
It answers our handshake in 460 ms on average, which is faster than 26% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
