MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that links AI assistants with outside tools and data sources. A server exposes tools, and the assistant chooses when to use them.

Which AI assistants does it work with?

Every MCP-capable client. The setup guides above walk through ChatGPT and Claude — web, desktop app and Claude Code — and a universal config covers the rest.

Does it work with private videos?

No. snapFB MCP only handles public Facebook videos; anything posted privately or shared with friends only cannot be fetched.

How do I pay for a plan?

In a chat where snapFB is turned on, ask the assistant for a payment link and it will send you one. There is no checkout page on this site.

How snapFB MCP handles a Facebook link

Pass it a link to a Facebook post, reel or watch page and get back direct video URLs in each quality and format on offer.

Download Facebook videos

Paste the address of a public post that holds a video; the agent replies with a direct link for every quality and format.
Save Facebook reels

Reels are covered as well — share the reel link and get files you can keep at once.
Grab videos from watch links

Links to facebook.com/watch pages and short fb.watch addresses resolve to the same video file.

Videos, reels, watch pages

Ask any MCP client to download Facebook videos and reels

The same tool works in chat apps, in code editors and in your own scripts — wherever MCP is supported.

Facebook MCP server

Public videos only

Add a single block to your client’s config once — after that, just ask for any Facebook video you need.

mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "snapfb-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api-wh.snapfb.info/facebook/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Assistant

Grab this reel, please: facebook.com/reel/…

download_facebook_video(url="facebook.com/reel/…")

Done — I found HD and SD versions of the reel, each as an MP4 you can download.

Want me to get links for any other video on that page?

Getting started

Add snapFB MCP to ChatGPT, Claude or another MCP client

Choose your app and walk through the steps

Fits every client with MCP support · the only difference is where the config file lives.

Find the MCP config file in your client’s settings — in most apps it is mcp.json.

Put the snapFB entry inside mcpServers:

mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "snapfb-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api-wh.snapfb.info/facebook/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Save your changes and restart the client to pick up the server.
Start a fresh chat and request a video:
- Fetch the reel at facebook.com/reel/…
- I need the HD version of fb.watch/…

Any ChatGPT plan will do · Developer mode has to be on first.

Log in to chatgpt.com.
In Settings → Security and login, turn on Developer mode.
Leave the settings and go to chatgpt.com/plugins.
Click the + button at the top right, then pick Create plugin.
Put this address into the URL field: https://api-wh.snapfb.info/facebook/mcp
Set authentication to OAuth, then click Connect or Sign in — whichever button you see.
In the pop-up, sign in or register and grant access.
That’s it — enable snapFB from the tools menu in a chat.

There are no commands to learn: describe what you need, and the assistant reaches for snapFB on its own.

Requires a paid Claude subscription · Pro, Max, Team or Enterprise.

Log in to claude.ai.
Click your name at the lower left, then go to Settings → Connectors.
Select Add custom connector.
Enter this URL and click Add: https://api-wh.snapfb.info/facebook/mcp
Click Connect; in the window that opens, sign in or register and grant access.
In a new chat, enable snapFB from the tools menu below the input field.

Can’t see the connector? Refresh the page and make sure it is enabled in that chat’s tools menu.

Requires a paid Claude subscription · desktop app on macOS or Windows.

Download the Claude app for your computer, launch it and log in.
Go to Settings → Connectors.
Select Add custom connector.
Enter this URL and click Connect: https://api-wh.snapfb.info/facebook/mcp
Your browser opens a new tab — sign in or register there and grant access.
Switch back to the app: snapFB is now listed among your tools.

Older builds of the app lack custom connectors — if the option is missing, install the latest update.

Terminal · requires Claude Code.

Set up Claude Code and log in; it walks you through this on first launch.

Add the server by running:

Terminal

claude mcp add --transport http snapfb-mcp https://api-wh.snapfb.info/facebook/mcp

Launch Claude Code and enter /mcp.
Select snapfb-mcp, then Authenticate — a sign-in page opens in your browser.
Log in or register, grant access, then return to the terminal.
Done. From now on Claude Code fetches Facebook videos whenever you ask.

snapfb-mcp is just a local name for the server on your machine — any other name works too.

Not working?

No sign-in window, or it errors out. Let your browser show pop-ups from this site, then connect once more.
snapFB went silent or vanished from your tools. Delete the connector and re-add it using the same URL.
You can’t find Connectors. Make sure your subscription supports them and you are on the latest version of the app or site.
You were logged out. Sessions expire now and then — just press Connect or Authenticate and sign in once more.
