Utility API

What can you do with the Llms API?

The Llms endpoint gives you structured Utility data with computed fields in a single request. No scraping infrastructure to build or maintain.

Example Request

curl -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  "https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/utility/llms"
import requests

response = requests.get(
    "https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/utility/llms",
    headers={"x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY"},
)

data = response.json()
const response = await fetch(
  "https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/utility/llms",
  {
    headers: { "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY" },
  },
);

const data = await response.json();

Parameters

ParameterRequiredDescription
platformNoScope the context to one platform slug
formatNomarkdown (default) returns the llms corpus text; json returns a structured context object (markdown | json)

Never put the key in the URL or query string.\n- Never invent endpoint paths. Endpoints live at `/v1/{platform}/{resource}` and are `GET` unless marked otherwise (a small set of batch and web endpoints are `POST`/`PATCH`/`DELETE`); fetch `/llms-{platform}.txt` for one platform's exact resource list with methods, or `/llms-full.txt` for all of them.\n- For cross-platform questions (\"who is talking about X everywhere\"), prefer `GET /v1/search/everywhere` over fanning out per platform yourself. One call searches up to 15 sources and fuses the results.\n- Paginate every list the same way: read `pagination.next_cursor` from the response, send it back verbatim as the `cursor` query parameter, and stop when `pagination.has_more` is `false`. Never build or decode a cursor yourself.\n...",

What does GET /v1/utility/llms return?
The SocialCrawl context corpus for AI agents, served through the API: the same content as the public llms.txt file, for the whole API or scoped to a single platform, as markdown by default or as a structured JSON context object with format=json.
Why fetch llms.txt through the API instead of the file?
An agent that already holds an API key bootstraps itself with one authenticated call and gets the corpus in the same envelope as every other response. The json format also gives it a structured object instead of raw text, which is easier to slot into a context window.
Can I scope the agent context to one platform?
Yes. Pass platform (for example platform=tiktok) and the corpus covers just that platform's endpoints and rules, which keeps the payload small when an agent only works with one source.
Is the llms endpoint free to call?
Yes, it costs 0 credits, like the endpoints catalog, the endpoint usage guide, and the quickstart. Loading context never spends credits, so agents can refresh their knowledge of the API whenever they need to.
How do AI agents self-onboard with SocialCrawl?
With the four free utility endpoints: quickstart for auth, billing, and error rules, llms for the context corpus, endpoints to discover the catalog, and endpoint for exact per-endpoint usage. An agent with an API key runs that loop on its own, with no documentation scraping and no credits spent.
