How to connect your AI agent to PostlyBee

Connect Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor to your social media accounts in three steps. The server is hosted, so there is nothing to install.

  1. 1

    Start a plan and connect your channels

    Start your 7-day free trial and connect the social accounts your agent should manage, such as Instagram, LinkedIn, X, or TikTok.

  2. 2

    Add the MCP server to your AI app

    Paste the server URL into your AI client. Clients with OAuth open a PostlyBee sign-in where you pick the workspace and approve access.

  3. 3

    Ask your agent to plan and schedule

    Describe what you want in plain language. The agent checks your channels and each platform’s rules, then schedules after you confirm.

MCP server URL

https://api.postlybee.com/mcp

The easiest way. No terminal and no API token: paste the URL and sign in.

  1. 1Open your AI app’s connector settings and add a custom connector.
  2. 2Name it PostlyBee and paste https://api.postlybee.com/mcp.
  3. 3Sign in to PostlyBee, choose the workspace, and approve access.
  4. 4Ask your agent to list your PostlyBee channels to confirm it works.

Using ChatGPT? Custom connectors stay hidden until you turn on Developer mode in Settings → Apps → Advanced settings. It is available on the web for paid ChatGPT plans.

You stay in control

Built-in guardrails for AI publishing

Read and write scopes

Connect with read-only access for research and reporting, and add write access only when the agent should schedule.

Confirmation before publishing

The server instructs agents to review channels and posts first and confirm with you before scheduling or changing settings.

No post deletion

Deleting posts is not available through MCP, so your published and scheduled content stays in place.

Workspace-scoped access

Every connection is tied to the workspace you approve, and API tokens can be revoked at any time in Settings.

Agent patterns

What you can build with PostlyBee and an AI agent

  • Weekly content planner

    Every Monday, the agent reviews what is already scheduled, fills the open posting slots, and saves drafts for your team to approve.

  • Repurposing assistant

    Paste an article or video script and get a LinkedIn post, an X thread, and an Instagram caption, each scheduled to its own channel.

  • Performance reviewer

    Pull account and post analytics for the last month, compare channels, and suggest what to post more of next month.

  • Agency workspace assistant

    Give each client workspace its own scoped connection, so one agent setup can plan content without mixing up accounts.

For developers

Building your own agent? Use the API, SDK, or CLI

The same workspace-scoped API tokens work across MCP, the Public API, the Node.js SDK, and the CLI.
