MCP server for Hootsuite API integration

Overview

AI-generated overview

A local MCP server that connects an assistant to the Hootsuite social media management API for social media tasks.

What you can do
Connect an assistant to the Hootsuite social media management platform through its API, described as comprehensive API coverage with async support, rate limiting, retry logic and error handling. The manifest lists no individual tools, so the exact operations available are not documented here.
When to use it
Consider it when you want an assistant to work with Hootsuite social media management data and you already have Hootsuite API access.
Requirements
Runs locally as a stdio process, installed from PyPI with uvx or pip. Requires a Hootsuite API key in the HOOTSUITE_API_KEY environment variable and, optionally, an API URL in HOOTSUITE_API_URL. Network access to the Hootsuite API is needed.
Before you install
The server needs a Hootsuite API key (HOOTSUITE_API_KEY); keep it out of shared configuration and logs. The README claims broad API coverage, which may include actions that post, schedule or change social media content, but no tool list is provided, so verify what it can write before use.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Hootsuite 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.

40% of the applicable checks met

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
