Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote MCP server that gives an assistant a curated library of viral TikToks and Instagram Reels, filed by niche and format, to draft hooks and content ideas.

What you can do
  • Search a curated library of viral short-form videos by niche, format, creator or search term
  • Read each video's hook, caption, views, engagement and viral factor, plus a link to watch it
  • List the niches and formats the library is filed under
  • Draft hooks and content ideas for a product, client or niche from real viral posts
  • Use five ready-made prompts such as what to post next, viral hooks in my niche, or formats that work in a niche
When to use it
Useful for social media and content work on TikTok and Instagram Reels: deciding what to post next, studying hooks and formats that worked in a niche, or turning saved videos into a brief. It is a library of past viral videos, not a live trend feed.
Requirements
A remote MCP endpoint reached over streamable HTTP; no local package or runtime. A Viral Swipe File account, signed in through an OAuth 2.1 browser flow; no API key to copy. Read access to the library and to videos your team saved on the site.
Before you install
Every tool is read-only and cannot save, remove or post anything. Tool arguments such as niche, format or search term are sent to the provider, and each call except list_niches and list_formats counts against your team's usage. Calls are logged in product analytics with tool name, arguments (email, phone and card numbers replaced first), outcome, errors, account identifier and AI client name and version. It links to videos and never downloads or reposts them.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Viral Swipe File in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.viralswipefile%2Fviralswipefile/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

README

Viral Swipe File plugin

Know what to post next on TikTok and Instagram Reels. This plugin connects Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor and Grok to a curated library of short-form videos that went viral, filed by niche and format, so your assistant writes hooks and content ideas from real posts. Each video comes with its hook, caption, views, engagement and viral factor, and a link to watch it.

Viral Swipe File files each video under a niche and one or more formats (selfie with background, face close-up, story in slideshow and more). Viral factor is how many times more views a video got than its account usually gets: 10x is ten times its usual, so a small account's breakout ranks next to a big one's.

The plugin reaches the library over MCP and adds skills that tell your assistant how to find, quote and learn from the videos.

What you can ask

  • "What should I post this week for a fitness client?"
  • "Show me the viral hooks in finance, then write 5 for my budgeting app."
  • "Which video formats work best for astrology on TikTok?"
  • "What are this creator's best videos?"
  • "Turn my team's saved videos into a UGC brief."

The server also offers five ready-made prompts: what to post next, viral hooks in my niche, swipe a creator's best videos, hooks for my product or client, and formats that work in a niche. In Claude, open a chat's + menu and pick Viral Swipe File.

Install

Claude Code

bash
claude plugin marketplace add viralswipefile/viralswipefile-pluginclaude plugin install viralswipefile@viralswipefile

Codex reads .codex-plugin/plugin.json. ChatGPT uses the root plugin.json and mcp.json.

Cursor: add this repository from the Cursor plugin marketplace, or point Cursor at it as a plugin repository.

Grok: grok loads it from ~/.grok/plugins/, or pass the cloned repository with --plugin-dir.

Any MCP client, without the skills

bash
claude mcp add --transport http viralswipefile https://viralswipefile.com/api/mcp

On claude.ai, add https://viralswipefile.com/api/mcp as a custom connector.

Sign-in and the data it sends

Connecting opens a browser sign-in to your Viral Swipe File account (OAuth 2.1). There is no API key to copy. The plugin requests read access to the library and to the videos your team saved on the site. Every tool is read-only: it cannot save, remove or post anything.

The plugin talks to one server, viralswipefile.com. When your assistant calls a tool, the tool's arguments, such as a niche, a format or a search term, are sent to that server. Viral Swipe File counts each call (except list_niches and list_formats) against your team's usage, with the AI client's name, and records every call in its product analytics (PostHog): the tool name, its arguments (an argument containing an email address or a phone or card number is replaced first), timing, how the call turned out (how many results, or that nothing matched, the call was refused or it failed), errors, your account identifier and the AI client's name and version. Calls made close together are grouped into a session (for ChatGPT, by the anonymous conversation id it sends). It does not record what the tool returned, only how many results. Nothing else from your conversation or your machine is sent. See the privacy policy.

Scope

A library of past viral videos, not a live trend feed. TikTok and Instagram Reels only, not YouTube or long-form video. No analytics for your own account. It links to videos and never downloads or reposts them.
