How to Set Up and Use UnifAPI
UnifAPI is a unified API platform for AI agents that aggregates 400+ public data sources — including web search, social media (Instagram, Reddit, X, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube), news, SEO audits, and competitive intelligence — behind a single MCP endpoint. Instead of juggling dozens of API keys and integrations, agents authenticate once via OAuth and gain read-only access to live public data across all supported platforms.
Prerequisites
- A UnifAPI account (sign up at unifapi.com; new workspaces receive free trial credits)
- Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, or another MCP-compatible agent client
- Internet access to reach https://mcp.unifapi.com
- No platform-specific API keys required — UnifAPI handles all upstream authentication
Add UnifAPI to Claude Code via plugin marketplace
The quickest path for Claude Code users is the plugin marketplace command.
/plugin marketplace add unifapi-agent/agents
/plugin install unifapi@unifapiAuthenticate with your UnifAPI account
On first use, the agent will open an OAuth flow. Complete the browser login to link your UnifAPI workspace.
Configure manually for Codex (alternative)
For Codex CLI, add the MCP server URL to ~/.codex/config.toml, then authenticate.
[mcp_servers.unifapi]
url = "https://mcp.unifapi.com"Authenticate in Codex
After adding the config entry, run the login command to complete OAuth.
codex mcp login unifapiConfigure for Claude Desktop (HTTP MCP)
Add the hosted MCP URL directly in your Claude Desktop or Cursor MCP config file.

OAuth login loop or token not saved
Ensure your browser is not blocking pop-ups from unifapi.com. After completing the OAuth flow, the token is stored in your workspace; restarting the agent client should pick it up automatically.
Trial credits exhausted and requests fail
Check your workspace credit balance at unifapi.com. Upgrade to a paid plan or reduce request frequency. UnifAPI's tools are read-only so there is no risk of accidental writes consuming credits.
Plugin install command not recognized in Claude Code
Make sure you are running a recent version of Claude Code that supports the /plugin command. Alternatively use the direct HTTP config approach with the mcp.unifapi.com URL.
