TikTok Scraper — MCP server and agent skill

Let an AI agent read TikTok. This repo connects Claude, Cursor, Codex and other MCP clients or skill-aware agents to the TikTok Scraper Apify Actor.

Ask "what were the most liked iced matcha videos this week" or "vet @creator for brand safety", and the agent gets structured rows: videos with views, likes, comments, shares and saves; creator profiles with follower counts; comments with replies; follower and following lists; sounds and hashtag feeds. Optional extras are watermark-free MP4s, transcripts and AI labels for category, sponsored content, brand safety and sentiment.

No TikTok account, cookies or API key. You need only an Apify account.

Hosted MCP server

https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=harshmaur/tiktok-scraper

Sign in with OAuth in the client, or send Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_TOKEN> with a token from Apify Console → Integrations.

Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http tiktok https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=harshmaur/tiktok-scraper

Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code and others (mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tiktok-scraper": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=harshmaur/tiktok-scraper"
    }
  }
}

Registry name: io.github.harshmaur/tiktok-scraper in the official MCP Registry.

Agent skill

skills/apify-tiktok-scraper/SKILL.md tells an agent which input list fits a request, that the per-target video count defaults to 1, which options cost extra, and how to read each row type.

Claude Code plugin (skill plus the hosted MCP tool):

/plugin install apify-tiktok-scraper --marketplace harshmaur/apify-tiktok-scraper

Any agent that reads skills:

npx skills add https://github.com/harshmaur/apify-tiktok-scraper

$0.35 per 1,000 videos, $0.20 per 1,000 comments, $0.25 per 1,000 followers, $4 per 1,000 profiles. Date and likes filters, exact hashtag match and TikTok's own captions are free. AI labels, AI transcripts and video downloads cost extra. Inputs that fail come back as free failed rows.
