Give your AI agent live social media data

Language models know nothing after their training date. The Vanefeed MCP server gives Claude, Cursor or any MCP client typed tools to read today's posts, profiles and search results from eight platforms.

1. Get a key and the server

Sign up for a free key (100 credits), then download vanefeed-mcp.mjs. It needs Node.js 18 or newer and has no other dependencies.

2. Add it to your client

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vanefeed": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/vanefeed-mcp.mjs"],
      "env": {
        "SW": "https://api.vanefeed.com",
        "SW_KEY": "sk_live_your_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart the client. Cursor and other MCP clients use the same command and environment variables.

3. Ask

  • "What has @NASA posted on X this week? Summarise the themes."
  • "Find the newest YouTube videos about electric car reviews and list their view counts."
  • "What are people in r/technology saying about AI chips today?"
  • "Pull the latest TechCrunch articles and tell me which mention funding rounds."

Why it works well for agents

  • One schema for every platform, so the agent learns one shape.
  • Cost on every response (X-Credits-Cost), plus free dry_run price checks, so an agent can budget its own calls.
  • Failed calls are free, so retries don't burn credits.
  • Also available as an OpenAPI 3.1 spec and plain HTTP, if you build your own tools.

Try it with 100 free credits

Enough for dozens of agent tool calls. No card needed.
