BusyBee — Social Media Data

BusyBee MCP

Public social media data for AI agents. Ten business-level tools, one schema — TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, X (Twitter), Douyin and Xiaohongshu.

Ask your agent "who are the fastest-growing coffee creators on TikTok right now, and what do their comment sections complain about?" — it answers with real data, in one conversation.

Endpoint    https://lucydomi.com/mcp
Protocols   MCP Streamable HTTP · MCP SSE (legacy) · REST/JSON · stdio
Tools       10
Billing     pay per call; every response returns cost_usd + balance_usd

Try it in 30 seconds — no signup: open **https://lucydomi.com/demo**, type a keyword, see the real response shape (3 free calls per device per day). When you want unlimited calls, grab a key at https://lucydomi.com/sign-up.

Connect your agent

Step-by-step guides, each with a config file you can copy verbatim:

• Claude Desktop / Claude Code — local stdio via uvx
• Cursor / Cline / Windsurf / VS Code — remote HTTP with a bearer header
• Dify / n8n / Coze / FastGPT — import the OpenAPI spec, no code
• Plain HTTP / curl / any language — REST endpoints and the tools JSON

Works with every kind of agent

Most "social data for AI" products ship one transport and hope your client speaks it. This server speaks four, on the same host, with the same 10 tools behind all of them.

The 10 tools

get_comment_insights is the one people keep open: it samples comments, then returns sentiment split, question ratio, high-frequency phrases and top-liked comments — so the agent answers "what do users actually want" instead of dumping fifty raw rows.

One schema, every platform

Same field names whether the item came from TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, X, Douyin or Xiaohongshu:

{
  "ok": true, "platform": "tiktok", "tool": "search_posts", "count": 6,
  "items": [
    {
      "platform": "tiktok",
      "id": "7690199760430566669",
      "url": "https://www.tiktok.com/@laceyglasley/video/7690199760430566669",
      "author": { "id": "7066058701889012782", "handle": "laceyglasley", "name": "Lacey" },
      "text": "Salted Honey Spanish Latte … #coffeetok #spanishlatte",
      "created_at": "2026-09-27T13:03:24+00:00",
      "stats": { "likes": 68357, "comments": 165, "shares": 7691, "views": 1009685, "collects": 17806 },
      "cover": "https://…"
    }
  ],
  "cost_usd": 0.003, "balance_usd": 3.93
}

This is a real response, not a mock-up — captured from a live call, only the share URL query string and the caption were trimmed. Two full raw responses are checked in: examples/1_tiktok_coffee.json (search_posts) and examples/2_youtube_insights.json (comment insights on 20 comments).

Every response carries cost_usd and balance_usd, so the agent can budget itself and you can see what a task actually cost.

Setup per client

Need a key first: register at lucydomi.com → Console → API Keys → New key (sk-…). Overseas and China platforms use different key groups.

Claude Code

claude mcp add busybee --transport http https://lucydomi.com/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer sk-YOUR_KEY"

Cursor / Cline / Windsurf / VS Code (~/.cursor/mcp.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "busybee": {
      "url": "https://lucydomi.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer sk-YOUR_KEY" }
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop (local stdio)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "busybee": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["busybee-mcp"],
      "args": ["busybee-mcp"],
      "env": { "BUSYBEE_API_KEY": "sk-YOUR_KEY" }
    }
  }
}

Legacy SSE clients

SSE URL      https://lucydomi.com/sse
Messages URL https://lucydomi.com/messages/?session_id=<from the SSE event>
Header       Authorization: Bearer sk-YOUR_KEY

Dify / n8n / Coze / GPT Actions

Import the OpenAPI schema, set auth to Bearer sk-YOUR_KEY. If the importer rejects 3.1, use the 3.0 view.

Server-side endpoints derive automatically from the schema; each operation maps 1:1 to a tool name, so search_posts in the schema is POST https://lucydomi.com/mcp/v1/search_posts.

LangChain / custom Python (no MCP needed)

import json, urllib.request
req = urllib.request.Request(
    "https://lucydomi.com/mcp/v1/search_creators",
    data=json.dumps({"platform": "tiktok", "keyword": "coffee", "limit": 3}).encode(),
    headers={"Content-Type": "application/json", "Authorization": "Bearer sk-YOUR_KEY"},
)
print(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)))

Local package

pip install busybee-mcp
BUSYBEE_API_KEY=sk-YOUR_KEY busybee-mcp          # stdio
BUSYBEE_API_KEY=sk-YOUR_KEY busybee-mcp http     # serve all transports on :3013

Design decisions worth knowing

• Ten tools, not a thousand. Call a business intent, not an endpoint. The more tools a model sees, the more often it picks wrong and burns money.
• Normalized fields. author / text / created_at / stats mean the same thing on every platform.
• One implementation behind every protocol. MCP, SSE and REST share the same dispatch layer, so behavior can't drift between clients.
• Pay per call, priced per endpoint. Cheap calls cost fractions of a cent. Price is visible in your console.
• Cost transparency inside the result. cost_usd + balance_usd on every response.
• Failures are not billed.
• Clean errors. No stack traces, no third-party vendor names, no upstream documentation links leaking into your agent's context.
• CORS enabled, so browser-based agents and web widgets can call it directly.
