FAQ

Questions

What is hidrix-tools?

AI agents like Claude, OpenClaw, Hermes, Cursor, and pi can read files and write code — but they can't search the web, read social media, or scrape data on their own.

hidrix-tools fixes that. It's an MCP server that provides tools for web search, social media search, Facebook scraping, content analysis, and more. Plug it into any agent that supports MCP — no vendor lock-in.
