# WeChat MCP server: Official Accounts and Channels in Claude and Cursor (2026)

DataXAPI's MCP server has 8 Official Account, 15 Channels and 6 WeChat Search endpoints: articles in full with their reads and comments, Channels videos and comments, and WeChat Search results. In Claude, Cursor or ChatGPT you ask in a sentence, with no WeChat account of yours, from $0.0200 a call. DataXAPI reads WeChat Official Accounts with 8 endpoints, from $0.0200 a call; a failed call is not charged, and the free trial covers up to 333 calls.

Updated 2026-11-06

## How do I connect it?

To connect: paste this to your AI assistant: “Read https://dataxapi.com/agents.md and set up DataXAPI here. My API key is dx_…; use it for every DataXAPI call.” A client that takes a remote MCP server can be given `https://api.dataxapi.com/mcp` with the header `Authorization: Bearer <key>` instead.

## What can I ask about WeChat?

An article is named by its link and an account by its gh_ original ID; with only a name, the AI finds the ID through WeChat Search first.

| You say | What it calls |
| --- | --- |
| An account's last 20 articles, with titles and reads | `wechat.accounts.search`, `wechat_mp.accounts.articles.list`, `wechat_mp.articles.metrics` |
| Sum up this article (a link) and its featured comments | `wechat_mp.articles.get`, `wechat_mp.articles.comments.list` |
| This week's articles and videos on AI 眼镜 in WeChat Search | `wechat.posts.search` |
| This Channels account's latest videos and comments | `wechat_channels.users.videos.list`, `wechat_channels.videos.comments.list` |

## Good to know

Reads need the article's long link. It reads public data only and cannot publish, comment or reply. Finding endpoints and reading prices is free, and a failed call is not charged.

## Why DataXAPI

- Steady: endpoints were available 99.9% of the last 30 days, on a public status page you can check.
- Fast: a paid call took 3.5 seconds at the median over the last 7 days (counted 2026-11-06).
- Fewer tokens: across 8 endpoints on WeChat Official Accounts, one recorded real response each, the platform's own JSON comes to 21k tokens and what an AI reads through DataXAPI's MCP server to 4,494, 79% fewer; the JSON of a direct API call is 70% fewer too (counted 2026-11-06). Every platform answers in one shape: the author in `author`, counts in `metrics`, the next page in `page.next_cursor`, so another platform needs no new parser.
- See before you pay: every endpoint's page shows a recorded real response, field by field.
- Spending you control: a failed call is not charged; each key can have a limit, `X-Max-Price` caps one call, and the same `Idempotency-Key` within 24 hours is never charged twice.
- Ready for AI: a remote MCP server listed in the official MCP registry as `com.dataxapi/mcp`, usable from Claude, Cursor and ChatGPT.
- Free trial of up to 333 calls, no card.
