An MCP server that tracks the historical changes of Twitter usernames—frequent screen name changes in crypto projects can be a red flag for potential scam risks.

License Python Status

Features

  • Username Change History: Query the historical usernames of a Twitter user by their current screen name (e.g., @OSINT_Ukraine or @Mormonger).
  • Prompt Support: Includes a prompt template to guide users in formulating queries.
  • Lightweight Design: Built with minimal dependencies (mcp and requests) for easy setup.

Installation

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.10+
  • pip or uv for dependency management
  • Claude Desktop (optional, for MCP integration)

Setup

  1. Clone the Repository:

    bash
    git clone https://github.com/kukapay/twitter-username-changes-mcp.git
cd twitter-username-changes-mcp

  2. Install Dependencies:

    bash
    pip install mcp[cli] requests

Usage

Running the Server

Start the server in development mode to test locally:

bash
mcp dev main.py

This launches the MCP Inspector, where you can:

  • List available tools (query_username_changes).
  • Test queries (e.g., screen_name: "OSINT_Ukraine").
  • Debug prompts.

Integrating with Claude Desktop

  1. Configure MCP Server: Edit the Claude Desktop configuration file:

    • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
    • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

    Add the server:

    json
    {
  "mcpServers": {
    "twitter-username-changes": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": [
        "/absolute/path/to/twitter-username-changes-mcp/main.py"
      ]
    }
  }
}

    Replace /absolute/path/to/ with the full path to main.py.

  2. Install the Server:

    bash
    mcp install main.py --name "TwitterUsernameChanges"

  3. Query in Claude Desktop:

    • Open Claude Desktop and look for the hammer icon (indicating MCP tools).
    • Enter a query like: 
      Show the username change history for Twitter user @OSINT_Ukraine
    • Expected output: 
      Username change history for OSINT_Ukraine:

User ID 4725638310:
- The_HelpfulHand (2016-01-09 to 2020-09-27)
- nftpromo_s (2022-02-10 to 2022-02-23)
- OSINT_Ukraine (2022-02-24 to 2022-02-25)

Example Queries

  1. Query @Mormonger:

    Tool input: screen_name: "Mormonger"

    Output:

    Username change history for Mormonger:

User ID 1408886100:
- colenoorda (2016-04-02)
- Mormonger (2017-01-19 to 2025-02-25)
