# glim.sh MCP server Give your agent live data from Twitter, Reddit, the web and GitHub. No API keys, no scraping stack. ## Links - Registry page: https://www.getdrio.com/mcp/sh-glim-glim - Repository: https://github.com/glim-sh/glim-mcp - Website: https://glim.sh ## Install - Endpoint: https://glim.sh/mcp - Auth: Not captured ## Setup notes - Remote endpoint: https://glim.sh/mcp ## Tools - glim_twitter_search (Twitter Search) - Search Twitter/X. Returns a compact human-readable list by default; pass format='json' for full structured data. Use glim_twitter_get(ref) for full thread context. Use docs://search-operators for reference. Endpoint: https://glim.sh/mcp - glim_twitter_get (Fetch Tweet or User) - Fetch a tweet or a user from one reference. A tweet URL (incl. handle-less /i/status/) returns the tweet with full thread context, parent, and optional replies/quotes; a profile URL (https://x.com/) returns the user with recent tweets. Prefer full URLs - if you only have a numeric id, pass it as a quoted string. Returns a compact human-readable view by default; pass format='json' for full structured data. Endpoint: https://glim.sh/mcp - glim_reddit_search (Reddit Search) - Search Reddit posts. Each result comes with full post content and its top comments, so a single search usually answers the question without follow-up. Compact human-readable text by default; pass format='json' for full structured data. Use glim_reddit_get(ref) for a single post's complete comment tree. Page with cursor (response gives next_cursor when more exist). See docs://reddit-search. Endpoint: https://glim.sh/mcp - glim_reddit_get (Reddit Get) - Fetch a Reddit post, subreddit, or user by ref. Posts return comments; subreddits and users return profile metadata plus recent activity. Endpoint: https://glim.sh/mcp - glim_web_search (Web Search) - Semantic web search powered by Exa. Returns titles, URLs, and the top query-relevant excerpt per result. Compact text by default; pass format='json' for full structured data incl. all excerpts per result. Use glim_web_fetch(url) for full page content. Matching is semantic, so a query with no real match still returns ten nearest-neighbour results rather than zero - judge relevance from the excerpts, not from the result count. Endpoint: https://glim.sh/mcp - glim_web_fetch (Web Fetch) - Fetch a single web page and extract clean content. Auto-tier server-side: handles SSR (Next.js, Nuxt, TikTok, Pinterest, YouTube), SPA shells, PDFs, paywall detection, residential-proxy escalation, and stealth profiles for TikTok / Instagram / Pinterest / YouTube. Returns clean markdown (default) with a YAML frontmatter header (url, outcome, total_chars). Read 'outcome' to classify the result (success | teaser | thin_content | paywall | bot_challenge | consent_wall | login_wall | rate_limited | timeout | transient_upstream | unsupported_target | not_found | error). Large pages (>80k chars) are truncated inline with truncated_chars + a download_full_url to the complete extraction (expires ~1h). Permanently unsupported (outcome=unsupported_target, cost=0 upstream): Bluesky search, Instagram post/reel and tag/explore pages (profiles work), Pinterest search, g2.com, Truth Social, Xiaohongshu. Threads and Instagram profile pages ARE supported. Endpoint: https://glim.sh/mcp - glim_github_search (GitHub Search) - Search GitHub repositories, conversations (issues+PRs), or code, with full GitHub search syntax in the query: qualifiers (repo:, org:/user:, language:, path:, symbol:, content:, is:, stars:, label:, sort:stars), boolean AND/OR/NOT with parentheses, "exact strings", and /regex/. kind='repos': MINIMAL distinctive keywords - the project/library name only ('rtk', 'react query'); every extra word must ALL match and buries the canonical repo - filter with qualifiers, not prose. kind='code': ONE literal code pattern as it appears in files ('useState('), an "exact string", a /regex/, or symbol:name to find definitions, across 2.8M+ public repos; narrow with repo:/language:/path:. Not supported in code search: license:, enterprise:, is:vendored, is:generated. kind='conversations': returns compact previews - use glim_github_get for full content; sort: REPLACES relevance ranking (words match anywhere incl. comments), omit it for best matches. Set repo='owner/name' to scope to one repository (works with any kind; with repos it routes to conversations). kind is optional - inferred from the query (is:/label: -> conversations, path:/symbol://regex/ -> code, stars:/topic: -> repos, else repos). Returns compact text by default; pass format='json' for full structured data. Endpoint: https://glim.sh/mcp - glim_github_get (GitHub Get) - Fetch GitHub data from a single ref. GitHub URL or 'owner/repo' shorthand. A repo URL or owner/repo returns metadata + README; /pull/N -> PR (with comments + changed files), /issues/N -> issue, /blob// -> file (raw.githubusercontent.com URLs work too), /tree/[/] -> file tree (optionally scoped to a subdirectory), /commit/ -> one commit with diff, /commits[//] -> history (optionally for one file), /branches, /releases (or /releases/tag/ | /releases/latest -> one release), /topics/ -> top repos with that topic (by stars). Endpoint: https://glim.sh/mcp - glim_amazon_search (Amazon Search) - Pass exactly ONE of {query} or {category_slug}. Searches Amazon (com|co.uk|de|fr|es|it) and returns ranked hits with buybox price (gross + VAT-excluded net), ratings, review counts, and ASINs. Drill down with glim_amazon_get(ref). Set sort_by='most_reviewed' (with min_reviews to filter junk) for a trust-weighted re-rank within the current page. Compact text by default; pass format='json' for full structured data. Endpoint: https://glim.sh/mcp - glim_amazon_get (Amazon Product) - Fetch Amazon product detail from a full product URL (the marketplace - com|co.uk|de|fr|es|it - is read from the URL host; pass the url field from a glim_amazon_search result, or any /dp/ page URL). Returns title, buybox price (gross + VAT-excluded net), stock, delivery estimate, rating, top reviews, and an 'other sellers' summary (count + floor price). Text mode (default) returns a compact view with offers_summary {buybox, lowest_new, lowest_used} - pass format='json' for full structured data incl. the offers[] listing and images. Endpoint: https://glim.sh/mcp - glim_youtube_get (YouTube Transcript) - Fetch a YouTube video transcript from a video URL or 11-char id. The transcript is cleaned server-side: deduplicated, tags/HTML stripped, with coarse [m:ss] timestamps - roughly a tenth the size of the raw captions. Default format='text' returns it inline (when it fits ~40K chars / ~10K tokens) so a single call gives you the text directly; long-form videos fall back to a download_url note. Pass format='json' for the same transcript plus transcript metadata (video_id, canonical url, language, origin, size) and a presigned download_url - for batch/programmatic use. Default origin='uploader_provided' (human captions); falls back to 'auto_generated' automatically if missing (counts as 2 upstream calls). Cached 7 days server-side.
