Setup in 3 steps
Takes about 2 minutes. Use the local stdio package for desktop clients, or the HTTP endpoint for browser-based agents.
No Posterly account yet?
An AI agent can install the MCP server without an API key, call start_signup, and poll get_signup_session while you pay and set a password in the browser.
{
"mcpServers": {
"posterly": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "posterly-mcp-server@latest"]
}
}
}After Posterly shows the API key, add POSTERLY_API_KEY to unlock scheduling and social account connection tools.
Enable API access in posterly
Go to Dashboard → API & MCP and enable the API add-on ($3/month). Then click "Create Key" and copy your bearer key.
Add posterly to your AI client
Choose your client below and add the stdio config. Replace the key with yours:
Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config
claude_desktop_config.json{
"mcpServers": {
"posterly": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "posterly-mcp-server@latest"],
"env": {
"POSTERLY_API_KEY": "pst_live_your_key_here"
}
}
}
}Not sure how? Copy and paste into your AI assistant. It'll handle the rest.
Restart your client and start posting
Restart your AI client. You should see "posterly" in the MCP tools list. Try saying: "Run get_mcp_status, then list my posterly accounts".
Using a browser-based agent? Skip the install.
Claude in Chrome, ChatGPT Atlas, Cursor in browser, and any other web-based MCP client can talk to posterly directly over HTTP. No local subprocess needed; it is the same key, same paywall, and same 55 HTTP MCP tools.
POST https://www.poster.ly/api/mcp
Authorization: Bearer pst_live_your_key_here
Content-Type: application/json
{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/list" }Auto-discovery: hit /.well-known/mcp/server-card.json for the full server card, or /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource for auth metadata.
