Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more
The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.
This server provides 8 capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client. No middleware. No custom integration required.
It's a pain tracking down user status across multiple platforms.
Today, checking a client’s standing means logging into their profile dashboard, then navigating to the billing section to see if they have an active VIP subscription. After that, you might need to run a separate query just to list all the packages they purchased months ago, involving three different tabs and at least two copy-pasting actions.
With this MCP, your agent handles it all in a single request. You ask for the status, and it uses `get_vip_status` and `list_user_orders` to return a clean record of their membership level and full purchase history. It's instant.
Get accurate content discovery using search_video_content.
Manually finding a piece of media today means guessing the title, checking multiple databases for availability, and then hoping you get enough metadata to confirm it's actually right. You often waste time chasing titles that are either retired or don't exist in the core library.
Now, your agent uses `search_video_content`. It finds potential matches and, crucially, can use `get_content_metadata` on demand to give you exact runtime, genre, and availability details. The data is accurate and ready to use.
What you can do with this MCP connector
This MCP connects your AI client directly to iQiyi's operational backend, giving you visibility into membership and content data without needing to log into any developer portal. You can run market research or audit customer accounts by asking natural language questions about users and titles. Your agent retrieves user identifiers, checks if a VIP subscription is active and when it expires, and searches the entire library for specific movies or shows.
If you're building out an internal data pipeline, Vinkius makes connecting this iQiyi Open Platform MCP simple, allowing your agent to handle everything from listing all available content categories to retrieving detailed order records in one go. It’s essentially a real-time entertainment coordinator built right into your workflow.

How iQiyi Open Platform MCP Works

get_user_profile, eliminating manual lookups of a client's nickname or unique ID.
Real-World Use Cases
Investigating subscription gaps
A customer complains they lost access to premium features. You ask the agent to run get_vip_status on their account, which immediately confirms they are 'Gold VIP' but that the subscription expired last week. Then you use list_user_orders to show them when they can re-subscribe.
Competitive content tracking
You need a report on what types of shows are performing well right now. You first call get_video_rankings, then use list_video_categories to filter the results, and finally run search_video_content to pull metadata for the top 5 titles.
Onboarding a new client
A sales team needs to confirm if a potential high-value user has existing membership packages. The agent uses get_user_profile first, then immediately calls list_user_orders to provide the full purchase history for review.
Debugging content access issues
A developer needs to check if a piece of media is available. They run search_video_content, and when they find the title, they use get_content_metadata to confirm its genre, runtime, and availability.
The Tradeoffs
Manually cross-referencing data
Checking a user's profile on one screen, then checking their orders on another dashboard, and finally running a search to see if the content is still available. It takes 10–15 clicks.
→
Let your agent handle it. Use get_user_profile for identity, list_user_orders for history, and then use those identifiers in conjunction with search_video_content to get a single, unified answer.
Assuming data completeness
Only knowing the user's name but not having their unique ID. This means you can't reliably check their VIP status or order history.
→
Always call get_user_profile first to get the required nickname and unique identifier before attempting any other action like get_vip_status. The ID is mandatory for accuracy.
Searching without filtering
Running a broad search query when you only care about a specific type of content (e.g., only comedies). You get too many irrelevant results.
→
Always use list_video_categories to narrow your focus first, and then pass those categories into search_video_content. This filters the results before the search even runs.
When It Fits, When It Doesn't
Use this MCP if you need structured access to iQiyi's internal data—specifically user status, financial history (orders), or video metadata. It’s perfect for building analytical tools that require combining profile data (get_user_profile), membership checks (get_vip_status), and content discovery (search_video_content). Don't use this if you just need general entertainment news; those sources won't have your required structured order details. If all you need is a simple public listing of titles, checking the official site might be enough. But if you need to know who owns the account and what they paid for it, you need these tools.
Common Questions About iQiyi Open Platform MCP
How do I check a user's VIP membership status using get_vip_status? +
You pass the required user identifier to get_vip_status. The system returns their current level (e.g., Gold VIP) and the exact date when that subscription is set to expire.
Can I use search_video_content to find a genre? +
No, search_video_content searches by title or keyword. To filter by content type, you should first call list_video_categories and then refine your search query.
What information does get_user_profile give me? +
It retrieves the core metadata for a user, specifically their unique ID and display nickname. This is often needed as an input for other tools like get_vip_status.
Does list_user_orders show current memberships? +
No. list_user_orders shows historical records of what the user has purchased. For current status, always use get_vip_status.
How do I authenticate my connection when calling a tool like `get_user_profile`? +
You must provide your iQiyi AppKey and MD5 Key during setup. These credentials authorize all calls to this MCP. The service uses these keys to validate every request, ensuring you only access data for which you have permission.
What should I do if the `get_video_rankings` call fails due to rate limits? +
If the rankings tool hits a limit, wait about 60 seconds and try again. The API handles temporary spikes by throttling requests. We recommend implementing a short delay between multiple calls to prevent continuous failure.
Does `get_content_metadata` provide enough detail for marketing reports? +
Yes, the metadata tool retrieves deep details about the content itself, including genre codes and production years. This allows you to build comprehensive reports without needing separate sources for basic video information.
How can I list all possible content types before searching using `list_video_categories`? +
The list_video_categories tool fetches the full hierarchy of available genres and groupings. You run this first to see all options, which then helps you refine your subsequent searches with search_video_content.
