Publish social updates directly from Claude Desktop

`create_post` publishes or schedules your social media content directly from the Claude Desktop interface. Your agent handles the formatting, schedules the timing, and updates your queue without you opening a browser tab. If a scheduled update needs a quick fix, `delete_post` cancels it instantly from your chat window. You control your entire pipeline using natural language commands in your desktop app.

Run instant social audits with this MCP Server

`get_analytics_metrics` extracts live engagement data from your connected networks straight into your chat. Your desktop agent compares current performance against older runs to show what works. You get a clear picture of your reach by running `get_daily_recap` to review yesterday's activity. Claude Desktop parses the raw numbers and highlights your top-performing threads instantly.

Manage your posting cadence and account settings

`get_posting_consistency` checks your publishing frequency to make sure you maintain a steady presence on every platform. The desktop client uses this data to suggest optimal times for your next queue update. You can swap profiles or check limits by calling `list_accounts` and `get_subscription_info` in the same chat. Claude Desktop keeps your API quotas visible so you never hit a rate limit blindly.
