You can run the Social Media Handle Checker as an MCP Server to verify username availability across major platforms in one go. It helps you qualify brand names, check consistency across networks, and gather basic profile details for quick assessment.

How to use

You interact with the server through an MCP-compatible client. Use the multi-platform tool when you need a quick, comprehensive availability check for a chosen handle. You can also run individual platform checks to drill down on a single service.

How to install

Prerequisites: you need Node.js installed on your system. You will also use the MCP client workflow to connect to the server.

Install the MCP server via the recommended zero-install approach using a package runner. Then you can start using it right away with your MCP client.

Configuration and usage examples

Add the server configuration to your MCP client so you can run the checker from your environment. The server runs over STDIO and uses a local command invocation.

Additional sections

Configuration for MCP Clients: You add the server to your MCP client configuration so it can be invoked as part of your workflow.

Development

Developers can install dependencies, build, and run the server to test changes locally.

Use cases

Ideal for brands, agencies, and creators who need to validate username options across platforms and gather quick profile context for decision making.

Limitations

Be aware of potential rate limiting and platform changes that may affect scraping-based checks. Use responsibly and respect platform terms.
