list_operationsLABSCO SUMMARY
Three tools instead of a hundred, because the catalogue is the surface.
Fronting a large API catalogue behind discover-inspect-call keeps the context cost flat no matter how many operations exist, and the inspect step is what stops the model guessing parameters on a call that bills. Responses carrying billing metadata alongside the data is the detail worth noticing — an agent can see what a call cost in the same turn it reads the result.
What it is
A hosted MCP server that fronts a catalogue of public-data APIs for creator research, social listening, competitor monitoring and KOL pricing. Rather than shipping one tool per data source, it exposes three: search the catalogue, inspect an operation, call it.
What you get
list_operations— search the public-data operation catalogue for what is availableget_operation— the parameters, schemas and call examples for one operation, so the model constructs the call correctly before spending anythingcall_api— runs a concrete operation and returns the data plus billing metadata- Coverage aimed at X/Twitter search and creator lookup, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Reddit and LinkedIn-style public data, influencer discovery, and competitor monitoring across posts, comments, profiles and trends
Requirements
Nothing installed locally — it is a remote server at https://mcp.unifapi.com over Streamable HTTP, added with claude mcp add --transport http unifapi https://mcp.unifapi.com or by pasting the URL. OAuth is the recommended path and compatible clients discover it from the protected-resource metadata at /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource; clients that cannot complete OAuth send a UnifAPI API key as a bearer token instead. Registry name com.unifapi/mcp, 0.1.2 in server.json.
Setup effort
One command plus a key — claude mcp add --transport http unifapi https://mcp.unifapi.com, then supply credentials
USE CASES
Building a creator shortlist
Find the discovery operations in the catalogue, read what filters they accept, and run the search that matches your brief.
Researching what a creator charges
Look up the KOL pricing operations and call the one that covers the platform you care about.
Watching a competitor's public presence
Pull posts, comments and profile data for the accounts you track, on a schedule your agent drives.
Getting a call right the first time
Read the operation's parameters and example before calling, rather than discovering the schema through failed attempts that still bill.
