Macrocosmos MCP Server

The Macrocosmos MCP server is a specialized bridge that connects AI assistants to live social‑media and video‑content streams. By leveraging the Data Universe (SN13) on Bittensor, it pulls up‑to‑date posts from X, Reddit, and full transcripts of YouTube videos. This real‑time data feed enables assistants such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and OpenAI Agents to answer questions that require the latest public discourse or media content—something traditional knowledge bases cannot provide.

For developers, this means a single, well‑defined API that abstracts away the complexities of each platform’s authentication, rate limits, and pagination. The server exposes a set of intuitive tools: “search X,” “fetch Reddit thread,” and “summarize YouTube transcript.” Each tool accepts natural‑language prompts, returns structured JSON, and can be chained with other AI actions. This tight integration allows an assistant to, for example, gather the most recent tweets about a political figure, analyze sentiment across Reddit threads, and then synthesize a concise briefing—all within one conversation.

Key capabilities include real‑time data retrieval, automatic transcript extraction from video URLs, and language‑agnostic querying. The server also supports a free tier with $5 of credits, making it accessible for prototyping and small‑scale deployments. Because the data is sourced from a decentralized network, developers benefit from reduced reliance on single‑point APIs and increased resilience against throttling or outages.

Typical use cases span journalism, market research, compliance monitoring, and educational tools. A newsroom could have an assistant pull the latest commentary from key influencers on X, while a compliance officer might track policy discussions on Reddit. Educators can embed up‑to‑date video content summaries into lesson plans, and researchers can aggregate public sentiment across multiple platforms for trend analysis.

What sets Macrocosmos MCP apart is its integration with the broader Bittensor ecosystem, enabling future expansion into Subnet‑based data curation and more granular access controls. For developers building AI workflows that demand fresh, unfiltered social data, this server offers a streamlined, scalable solution that turns live conversations into actionable insights.
