52 MCP tools for AI social media: create, distribute, analyze, and optimize content.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant create, schedule, publish, and analyze social media content across platforms through the Social Neuron service.

What you can do
Exposes a large tool set for the social media content lifecycle: ideation and trend research, AI generation of video, image, voiceover, and carousel assets, multi-platform scheduling and publishing, analytics and performance insights, brand voice management, comment moderation, content planning and approvals, autopilot scheduling, and credit and usage checks. It also includes utilities such as URL and YouTube extraction, screenshots, video rendering, and a tool search helper. A hosted variant adds interactive calendar and analytics apps.
When to use it
Worth adding when an assistant should plan, produce, publish, and optimize social media content for connected accounts, or run a recurring analytics-driven content loop. Also useful for teams that want content plans, approvals, and comment engagement handled through an MCP client.
Requirements
Runs locally over stdio via the npm package, so Node.js is needed (the README states Node 20.20+ and Node 22.22+). A Social Neuron Pro plan or higher is required, and authentication uses the SOCIALNEURON_API_KEY environment variable or a login flow that stores credentials in the OS keychain. Network access to the Social Neuron service is required.
Before you install
The server can publish, schedule, reschedule, and delete posts and content plans, reply to, post, moderate, and delete comments, and configure autopilot posting, so assistant actions can change or remove live social content. It requires a paid plan and consumes credits, and generation or rendering tools may spend them. The API key is a secret; on Windows the file-based credential fallback is noted as lacking strong permission enforcement, so the environment variable is recommended. Anonymous use

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Socialneuron in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

README

@socialneuron/mcp-server

3. Start using

Ask Claude: "What content should I post this week?" or "Schedule my latest video to YouTube and TikTok"

What You Can Do

Ask Claude things like:

  • "Generate 5 content ideas about sustainable fashion for Gen Z"
  • "Create a 30-second video ad for my product launch"
  • "Schedule this post to X and Bluesky at 9am tomorrow"
  • "Show me my best-performing content this month"
  • "What are the trending topics in my niche right now?"
  • "Check my analytics and suggest improvements"
  • "Set up autopilot to post 3 times per week"

Tool Categories

The npm package exposes 91 public tools per transport. The separately versioned hosted service exposes 92 public tools, including hosted-only get_account_status. Hosted HTTP includes the Content Calendar and Analytics Pulse MCP Apps; npm stdio includes 2 local screen-capture tools instead. The live hosted count is published by the server card. The npm package supports Node 20.20+ and Node 22.22+ under its declared engine ranges. The hosted service runs its separate 3.0.0 contract; its version is recorded alongside its reviewed tool inventory in server.json.hosted.

These tools are available to AI agents (Claude, Cursor, etc.) via the MCP protocol.

Content Calendaropen_content_calendarProject-scoped calendar, quick create, and drag-to-reschedule
Analytics Pulseopen_analytics_pulseProject-scoped KPI, platform-mix, and top-post performance dashboard

Apps render only in MCP hosts that support the MCP Apps extension. All underlying data and write operations remain ordinary scoped tools, so hosts without interactive UI can use the same workflows through text/tool calls.

Authentication

Three auth methods, in order of recommendation:

Device Code (Recommended)

bash
npx -y @socialneuron/mcp-server login --device

Opens browser, you approve, CLI receives API key automatically.

Browser Flow

bash
npx -y @socialneuron/mcp-server login

Browser-based OAuth flow.

API Key Paste

bash
npx -y @socialneuron/mcp-server login --paste

Generate a key at socialneuron.com/settings/developer, paste it in.

Keys are stored in your OS keychain (macOS Keychain, Linux secret-tool) or a file fallback created with owner-only permissions where the operating system supports them.

Windows users: The file fallback (~/.config/social-neuron/credentials.json) does not have strong permission enforcement on NTFS. For production use on Windows, set the SOCIALNEURON_API_KEY environment variable instead.

Pricing

MCP/API access requires a Pro plan or higher:

Scopes

Each API key inherits scopes from your plan. Tools require specific scopes to execute.

ScopeWhat you can do
mcp:readAnalytics, insights, brand profiles, content plans, quality checks, screenshots, usage stats, credit balance
mcp:writeGenerate content (video, image, voiceover, carousel), create storyboards, save brand profiles, plan content

mcp:commentsList, reply, post, moderate, delete comments
mcp:autopilotConfigure and monitor automated scheduling
mcp:fullAll of the above

CLI Reference

These commands run directly in your terminal — no AI agent needed. Useful for scripts, CI/CD, and quick checks.

After global install (npm i -g @socialneuron/mcp-server), use socialneuron-mcp directly. Otherwise, prefix with npx @socialneuron/mcp-server.

Automation Flow (E2E Loop)

The full autonomous content loop using MCP tools:

  1. get_loop_summary — assess project state (content count, scheduled posts, insights)
  2. plan_content_week — generate a content plan based on insights and trends
  3. generate_video / generate_image — create media assets from the plan
  4. check_status — poll async jobs until assets are ready
  5. schedule_post — distribute content to connected platforms
  6. (wait for analytics collection) — platform data is fetched automatically
  7. refresh_platform_analytics — trigger a manual analytics refresh
  8. get_performance_insights — read what worked and what didn't
  9. Loop back to step 1 with new insights

Each iteration produces smarter content as performance data feeds back into the planning step.

Security

  • All API keys are hashed before storage — we never store plaintext keys
  • Credentials stored in your OS keychain (macOS Keychain, Linux secret-tool) or environment variable
  • SSRF protection on all URL parameters with DNS rebinding prevention
  • Rate limiting per user with per-tool limits for expensive operations
  • Agent loop detection prevents runaway automation
  • Set DO_NOT_TRACK=1 to disable anonymous usage telemetry

See SECURITY.md for our vulnerability disclosure policy and credential safety details.

Telemetry

This package collects operational usage metrics (tool name, duration, success/failure) to improve reliability. It does not send tool inputs, outputs, generated content, API keys, emails, or upstream error bodies. When a deployment configures POSTHOG_PSEUDONYMIZATION_KEY, the user identifier is HMAC-pseudonymized; otherwise an ephemeral per-process key prevents stable cross-session correlation.

To disable: Set DO_NOT_TRACK=1 or SOCIALNEURON_NO_TELEMETRY=1 in your environment.

No personal content, API keys, or request payloads are ever collected.

Examples

See the examples repo for prompt-driven workflow templates:

  • Weekly content batch planning
  • Cross-platform content repurposing
  • Performance review and optimization loops
  • Brand-aligned content generation
  • Comment engagement automation
