SocialRouter MCP Server

An MCP server that exposes the SocialRouter API to LLM agents. Plug it into Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client to let the agent extract social media data (LinkedIn, Instagram, X, Reddit) — likes, comments, profile info, posts, followers — through a single unified API.

Configuration

Get an API key at socialrouter.io, then add the server to your MCP client config.
