14 tools, 32 platforms
Tools take a URL, handle or query plus the platform, and return the same clean JSON as the REST API. The last two reach anything the others don't wrap: list_endpoints finds the endpoint, call_endpoint runs it.
get_transcript Spoken-word transcript of a public video, with timestamped segments where the source publishes them.
get_summary Short LLM summary of what a public video actually says, built on its transcript.
get_post_stats Engagement stats for one public post or video: views, likes, comments, shares and reposts where the platform publishes them.
get_comments Comments on a public post or video, newest first, paginated with limit and cursor.
get_comment_replies The reply thread hanging off a single public comment.
get_profile Profile, page or channel record for a public account: follower and subscriber counts, bio, and totals.
get_channel_posts Recent public posts or videos from one account, with per-item metrics.
search Keyword search over one platform's public content.
search_hashtag Public posts carrying a hashtag.
get_reviews Public reviews and ratings for a product, business, app or company page.
download_media Direct media URLs for a public post or video, served from the platform's own CDN.
get_trending What is currently trending or rising on a platform.
list_endpoints Browse the whole API surface — every endpoint, its input and its credit cost. Free, and calls nothing upstream.
call_endpoint Run any endpoint by its path, so nothing on the API is out of reach of an agent.
Recipes to steal
> transcribe the last 10 videos from @handle and summarize the themes
Chains get_channel_posts → get_transcript × 10, then the model summarizes.
> compare engagement on our last 5 posts vs @competitor's
Two get_channel_posts calls, one table — no glue code.
> what are people saying in the comments of this launch video?
get_comments with the URL, then sentiment and quotes from the model.
