Video Downloader MCP server
Connect the EasyDown social media video downloader to MCP clients with the same token, permissions, and credit rules.
EasyDown exposes a video downloader MCP endpoint at https://api.easydown.org/mcp.
API authentication
Send the token in the Authorization header. Never place production tokens in URLs, client logs, source control, or analytics.
Successful parses are charged by platform. Most other supported platforms: 1 credit; YouTube: 3 credits; Threads: 2 credits; Kuaishou / Kwai: 2 credits; RedNote / Xiaohongshu: 10 credits. A failed request, empty response, or unavailable post alone does not trigger a charge. A no-media request is charged only when both a processing cost and a clear content restriction are confirmed. This exception currently applies to Douyin and Toutiao only. Unsupported URLs, input validation failures, invalid or unauthorized API tokens, temporary failures, timeouts, and unexplained empty results cost 0 credits. Unavailable content without a confirmed processing cost is also free.
REST and MCP use the same platform rates and confirmed content-restriction exception. MCP returns the actual charge in billing.creditsCharged, including on a failed result.
Do not infer a zero charge from an HTTP error, data: null, or the content_unavailable code. If a billing header is missing or the connection is interrupted, the charge is unknown: check dashboard usage records before resubmitting.
