Connection options

MCP server or skill?

Both reach the same PostlyBee workspace. Start with the MCP server and add the skill for files.

  • PostlyBee MCP server

    Best for: planning, scheduling, and analytics in conversation

    Built into Hermes, with an OAuth sign-in or a scoped token. Includes AI image and video generation on PostlyBee’s Growth plan.

Capabilities

What can Hermes Agent do with PostlyBee?

Hermes learns from how you work. With PostlyBee connected, it can take over the routine parts of your posting.

  • Schedule and draft posts

    Schedule to one channel or several, each with its own copy, or save drafts to review later.

  • Follow each platform’s rules

    Hermes loads each channel’s post rules and settings from PostlyBee before it writes.

  • Learn your style

    Hermes can remember how you edit its drafts, so later posts need fewer changes.

  • Fill your schedule

    Find the next open slots and place a batch of posts in them.

  • Upload from disk

    With the PostlyBee skill, Hermes attaches images and videos from your machine.

  • Report on results

    Pull account and post analytics and summarize what to post more of.

Tool allowlist

Give Hermes only the PostlyBee tools it needs

Hermes registers each PostlyBee tool as mcp__postlybee__<tool>. Add an include list to register only the tools a workflow needs, for example reading channels and saving posts without analytics or media generation.

PostlyBee also instructs agents to confirm before scheduling, and deleting posts is not available through MCP.
