FAQ

Questions

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 (6 free calls per device per day, 3 of them on Douyin/Xiaohongshu). 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.

Your agent	What it supports	How to connect
Claude Code	Streamable HTTP	`claude mcp add busybee --transport http https://lucydomi.com/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer sk-..."`
Cursor / Cline / Windsurf / VS Code	Streamable HTTP	add to `mcp.json` (see below)
Claude Desktop	stdio	`uvx busybee-mcp` with `BUSYBEE_API_KEY`
Older MCP clients (2024-11 era)	SSE only	`https://lucydomi.com/sse` + `https://lucydomi.com/messages/`
Dify / n8n / Coze / FastGPT	OpenAPI / plain HTTP	import `https://lucydomi.com/mcp/openapi.json` (3.1), or `?spec=3.0` for older importers
LangChain / LlamaIndex / custom code	tools JSON or HTTP	`https://lucydomi.com/mcp/tools?format=openai`, or call REST directly
GPT Actions / Zapier / Make	OpenAPI 3.x	same spec URL, bearer auth
Anything that can only GET a URL	query string	`https://lucydomi.com/mcp/v1/search_creators?platform=tiktok&keyword=coffee&api_key=sk-...`

The 10 tools

Tool	What it answers
`list_platforms`	Which platforms exist, which tools each supports, which key group you need
`search_creators`	"Find me mid-size coffee creators on TikTok"
`search_posts`	"What is being posted about cold brew this week?"
`get_creator`	"How big is this account, what's their bio?"
`list_creator_posts`	"What has this account posted recently?"
`get_post`	"Give me the details of this one video"
`get_comments`	"What are people saying under this post?"
`get_trending`	"What's trending on Douyin right now?"
`get_comment_insights`	"Summarize the comment section: sentiment, questions, complaints"
`check_balance`	"How much credit do I have left?"

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.

Docs by platform, by tool, by client

Each page carries a real captured response and copy-paste code, so you can skip the README once you know what you need:

Platform		Tool deep-dive	Client setup
TikTok	YouTube	Search posts	Claude Desktop
X (Twitter)	Instagram	Comment insights	Cursor
Douyin	Xiaohongshu	Creator discovery	Cline · Gemini CLI · Windsurf · VS Code · Dify · n8n

Tutorials — end-to-end workflows with real numbers: mine demand from comments · build a creator database · cross-platform topic check · competitor monitoring

All 21 in one index: https://lucydomi.com/resources · machine index: https://lucydomi.com/llms.txt · everything in one file for LLMs: https://lucydomi.com/llms-full.txt

Cookbook — three scripts you can run right now

Stdlib only, no dependencies. Each was run against the live API before being committed; the output below is real.

Script	Question it answers
`examples/cookbook_comment_insights.py`	What is the comment section actually asking? (search → hottest post → insights)
`examples/cookbook_creator_report.py`	Who are the creators in this niche? (creator search → recent posts → Markdown table)
`examples/cookbook_cross_platform.py`	Which platform owns this topic? (one keyword, six platforms, same fields)

export BUSYBEE_API_KEY=sk-...
python examples/cookbook_cross_platform.py coffee

Note the Instagram row: it reports the gap instead of silently returning nothing — list_platforms tells your agent which tools each platform actually supports, so cross-platform jobs degrade instead of breaking.

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)

      "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.

Platform	Where to paste	URL
Dify	Tools → Custom → Add OpenAPI tool	`https://lucydomi.com/mcp/openapi.json?spec=3.0`
n8n	HTTP Request node, or import as a credential-protected API	`https://lucydomi.com/mcp/openapi.json`
Coze	Plugin → Import from OpenAPI	`https://lucydomi.com/mcp/openapi.json?spec=3.0`
OpenAI GPT Actions	Actions → Import from URL	`https://lucydomi.com/mcp/openapi.json`

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)))

Tool schemas for function calling: GET https://lucydomi.com/mcp/tools?format=openai

Local package

pip install busybee-mcp
BUSYBEE_API_KEY=sk-YOUR_KEY busybee-mcp          # stdio

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.

Errors

`error`	Meaning	What to do
`no_api_key`	No key supplied	Add `Authorization: Bearer sk-...`, `X-API-Key`, or `?api_key=`
`unauthorized`	Key invalid or deleted	Issue a new key in the console
`insufficient_balance`	Out of credit	Top up
`forbidden`	Key group doesn't cover that platform	Create a key in the right group
`rate_limited`	Too many requests	Back off and retry
`unsupported_tool`	That platform doesn't expose the tool	Call `list_platforms` to see the matrix
`upstream_error`	Temporary provider failure	Retry once; not billed

Scope and compliance

BusyBee serves public social media data only, and only to users outside mainland China. Do not use it to profile private individuals, scrape private accounts, manipulate engagement, or train models on personal data without a lawful basis. See the data policy.
