Social media & web data API skill
One skill that reaches every source ScraperSocial covers. Most are social networks (TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, X, Reddit, Threads, Facebook and more); the catalogue also includes public web data that is not social media: Amazon products and reviews, Google Search, Maps, News, Trends, Finance and Shopping, the App Store and Google Play, Tripadvisor, Trustpilot and Polymarket. Instead of installing a skill per platform, this one lists the whole documented catalogue and calls any entry by path. Endpoints that return a person's contact details are deliberately not callable from here; see Personal data below.
list_endpoints.js reads a bundled snapshot, so discovery is free and works without an API key. Only call_endpoint.js spends credits.
This skill reaches 225 of the 227 documented endpoints across 33 sources in one place, instead of one skill per platform. The 2 endpoints that return personal contact details are listed but not callable from here.
When to use this skill
- You do not know which platform a request will need until you see it.
- You want one tool in the agent's context rather than 33.
- You need an endpoint that has no dedicated script in its platform skill.
- You are exploring what the API can do before committing to a specific skill.
Do not use this skill when
- You already know the platform. The dedicated skill has argument validation, section flags and platform-specific guidance on what not to do. Prefer
tiktok-apiover this for TikTok work. - You want guidance on cost or privacy for a specific platform. That lives in the per-platform skill, where it can be specific.
- You are looping over many endpoints to see what sticks. Every call costs credits. Use
list_endpoints.js— which is free — to decide first.
Setup
export SCRAPERSOCIAL_KEY=sk_live_... # https://scrapersocial.com/app/keys
Permissions and scope
These scripts do exactly three things and nothing else: read one environment variable (SCRAPERSOCIAL_KEY), send HTTPS requests to https://api.scrapersocial.com (the host is a constant in the code, not configurable), and print JSON. They run as node scripts/<name>.js with no other shell use, no file writes and no persistence. call_endpoint.js accepts only paths present in the bundled endpoints.json catalogue, never the personal-contact endpoints below, and refuses anything else before a request is made.
Personal data
Two catalogue entries return a named person's contact details: /v1/google_maps/contacts and /v1/linkedin/profile-contact. This skill refuses to call them, and it drops the include_email parameter that some profile endpoints accept, so no request made from here returns an email address or phone number. They remain visible in list_endpoints.js output with personalData: true so an agent can explain why a request was declined. Anyone with a lawful basis to process a specific person's contact data should use the platform skill (for example linkedin-api), which documents the requirement and the cost. Everything else this skill returns is public data.

FAQ
How do I find the right endpoint?
list_endpoints.js --search transcript filters by keyword, --platform tiktok filters by platform. It reads a local snapshot, so it costs nothing and needs no key.
How do I call an endpoint?
call_endpoint.js /v1/github/profile --handle torvalds. Any flag after the path is passed through as a query parameter, so --limit, --cursor, --fields, --format and --fresh all work.
Is the bundled endpoint list always current?
It is a snapshot generated from the live OpenAPI spec when the repo was last built. call_endpoint.js only accepts paths that are in that snapshot, so an endpoint added to the API after the last build is refused until the repo is rebuilt. That is intentional: the callable surface is exactly what this file documents.
Can this skill fetch someone's email or phone number?
No. The two endpoints that return personal contact details (/v1/linkedin/profile-contact and /v1/google_maps/contacts) are excluded from call_endpoint.js, and the include_email parameter is stripped before any request is sent. If you have a lawful basis to process a specific person's contact data, use the linkedin-api skill, which documents the requirements and the cost; this skill will not do it.
Should I use this or the per-platform skills?
Per-platform when you know the platform — they carry the guardrails. This one when you do not, or when you need an endpoint no script wraps.
