Can the AI really create and publish a post sequentially?

Yes. Once you gather valid endpoints using `list_profiles`, you can instruct the AI to construct content. When instructed, the bot calls `create_social_post`, supplying your generated text payload and matching the ID, broadcasting it natively. It can also assign scheduled timestamps for delayed publishing.

How can I extract sentiment from a listening topic intelligently?

Use the tool `list_listening_topics` to find the exact ID representing a brand trend. Ask the AI: "Diagnose listening id '123' for the past month". It will automatically run `get_listening_analytics`, interpreting the JSON outputs consisting of sentiment ratios, mention volumes, and mapping the sentiment securely inside your chat.

Do I need to leave a tab logged into Sprout Social open?

No, this is completely headless. As long as you provided the `SP_TOKEN` and `SP_CUSTOMER_ID` strings globally to your MCP integration parameters, the AI interacts with REST endpoints securely and natively in the background.
