What's Included
The skill teaches your AI agent how to use the ScrapeCreators API effectively — endpoint selection, parameter usage, pagination, credit costs, and platform-specific quirks for TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, Twitter/X, Reddit, Facebook, and 20+ more platforms.
| What you say | What the skill does |
|---|---|
| "Scrape this TikTok profile" | Routes to the right endpoint, handles params, paginates results |
| "Get comments from this Instagram reel" | Fetches the OpenAPI spec, builds the correct API call |
| "Search TikTok Shop for shoes" | Knows the TikTok Shop endpoints and pagination cursors |
| "Get the transcript of this YouTube video" | Uses the transcript endpoint, warns about duration limits |
Authentication
Set your API key as an environment variable so the agent can authenticate requests:
export SCRAPECREATORS_API_KEY=your-api-key🔑Get your API key at app.scrapecreators.com
Skill vs MCP
The MCP server gives your AI agent direct API access — it can call ScrapeCreators endpoints on your behalf. The skill teaches the agent best practices for using those APIs: which endpoint to pick, how to handle pagination, what the credit costs are, and platform-specific gotchas. Use them together for the best experience, or independently.
