Our reading of NameHound, from the data

NameHound is a social media MCP server, listed in the official MCP Registry.

We haven't measured its tool list yet, so its token cost is unknown.

Maintenance is active: the last public signal was 10 days ago (2026-10-09). For comparison, 75% of social media servers are active or maintained.

It runs as a hosted endpoint, so there is nothing to install.

Install NameHound MCP server

claude mcp add --transport http namehound https://namehound.app/mcp

  "mcpServers": {
    "namehound": {
      "url": "https://namehound.app/mcp"
    }
