Kimi Code + PostlyBee

Schedule social media posts with Kimi Code

Kimi Code CLI can set PostlyBee up by itself: paste one prompt, sign in once, and Kimi K3 can draft, schedule, and review posts across your social channels from the terminal.

  • Paste one prompt and Kimi adds the PostlyBee server to its own config
  • Sign in once with /mcp-config login postlybee, with no API key
  • Add the PostlyBee skill to upload images and videos from your project

$0 charged today, cancel anytime. MCP is included in every paid plan.

How do I connect PostlyBee to Kimi Code?

Kimi Code CLI is an MCP client. It keeps servers in mcp.json, and /mcp-config lets you add and sign in to them by asking.

  1. 1

    Connect your social channels

    Start your 7-day free trial and connect the accounts Kimi should post to, such as X, LinkedIn, or Instagram.

  2. 2

    Add PostlyBee to Kimi Code

    Paste the setup prompt, or add the server to mcp.json yourself, then run /mcp-config login postlybee to sign in.

  3. 3

    Ask Kimi to post

    Describe the post and the channels. Kimi asks for approval before it calls a PostlyBee tool.

Connection options

MCP server or skill?

Both reach the same PostlyBee workspace. Start with the MCP server and add the skill when you need it.

  • PostlyBee MCP server

    Best for: chatting with Kimi about posts and analytics

    Signs in with OAuth and gives Kimi the full PostlyBee toolset, including AI image and video generation on the Growth plan. Media comes from a public URL or a generation tool.

  • PostlyBee skill and CLI

    Best for: posting files from your project and scripts

    Teaches Kimi to use the PostlyBee CLI, which uploads images and videos from disk and returns JSON that suits automation. Signs in with a scoped API token.

Capabilities

What can Kimi do with PostlyBee?

Kimi K3 is built for long, multi-step agent work. With PostlyBee connected, it handles the whole loop from draft to scheduled post.

  • Set it up by asking

    Paste one prompt and Kimi adds PostlyBee to its own MCP config, then tells you when to sign in.

  • Follow each platform’s rules

    Kimi loads each channel’s post rules and settings from PostlyBee before it writes, instead of guessing.

  • Plan and schedule ahead

    Ask for a week of posts in your open slots. PostlyBee publishes them on time after you close the terminal.

  • Write from your repo

    Kimi reads your README, changelog, or docs and turns them into posts and threads.

  • Upload from disk

    With the PostlyBee skill, Kimi attaches the screenshot or demo video sitting in your project folder.

  • Read your analytics

    Pull account and post analytics and ask Kimi what to post more of.

Approvals

Kimi asks before it calls PostlyBee

PostlyBee tools appear in Kimi Code as mcp__postlybee__<tool>. Any call that does not match a permission rule asks for your approval first, and you can approve a tool for the rest of the session.

To skip prompts for read-only tools, add allow rules for them in Kimi’s config.toml. Keep scheduling tools on manual approval, and avoid the Ask When Needed mode, which approves MCP calls automatically.

[[permission.rules]]
decision = "allow"
pattern = "mcp__postlybee__integrationList"

[[permission.rules]]
decision = "allow"
pattern = "mcp__postlybee__postingSlotsTool"

Which Kimi?

Kimi K3, Kimi Code CLI, or the Kimi app?

Moonshot AI uses the Kimi name for its model, its terminal agent, and its chat app. This guide is for Kimi Code CLI, the terminal agent, which runs on the Kimi K3 model and supports MCP servers and skills.

The Kimi chat app on the web and phone is a separate product, and this setup does not apply to it.

Pricing and security

How much does it cost?

MCP and API access are included in every paid PostlyBee plan, starting from $9.99 per month, with a 7-day free trial. Kimi Code needs a Kimi Code login or a Moonshot AI API key.

How is access secured?

OAuth sign-ins and API tokens are scoped to one workspace, Kimi asks before each PostlyBee tool call, and deleting posts is not available through MCP.

Something not working?

Run /mcp to see the server status and /mcp-config login postlybee to sign in again. A server added mid-session only appears in new sessions.
