Overview

AI-generated overview

Hosted, read-only MCP access to Mention: browse alerts, mentions, authors, tags, statistics and shares from an AI assistant.

What you can do
  • Read the account and its monitoring alerts, including keywords, sources, languages and notification preferences
  • List and read mentions found by an alert, filtered by date, source or unread state, with author and task details
  • List the most active authors and the tags of an alert
  • Get mention statistics per day, week or month over a date range
  • List the people and teams an alert is shared with, and check usage or request features and plan changes
When to use it
Useful when you already run Mention media and social monitoring and want an assistant to summarize what an alert found, who is talking, or how volume trends over time, without opening the Mention app.
Requirements
Remote streamable HTTP endpoint; no local install. Sign-in is via OAuth, and on first connect you supply a Mention access token from the Mention app settings. The Mention plan must include the API add-on. Free tier allows 50 tool calls per month; paid plans raise the limit.
Before you install
The Mention access token is a credential stored per user by the third-party host, so only connect if you trust that operator. Paid plans are billed through Stripe checkout links returned by a tool, and cancellation runs to the end of the paid period with no refund for the current period. Meta tools can send a feature request and change your subscription; the read tools themselves do not modify Mention data.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Mention MCP by usefulapi in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. 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/io.usefulapi%2Fmention/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.

README

Mention MCP by usefulapi

Use your Mention account from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. Read alerts, mentions, authors, statistics and shares. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own credentials.

Live endpoint: https://mention.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io

Connect

  • Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://mention.usefulapi.io/mcp.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http mention https://mention.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
  • VS Code: Add to VS Code.
  • Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
json
{  "mcpServers": {    "mention": {      "url": "https://mention.usefulapi.io/mcp"    }  }}

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your Mention credentials.

Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/mention/

On first connect you provide a Mention access token, which you find in the app settings. The API add-on must be on your Mention plan. The server validates it and stores it per user. No keys go in config files.
