Details
From the project READMETimeToPost MCP server
The official Model Context Protocol server for TimeToPost: draft, schedule and publish social posts, manage approval queues, read analytics and run AutoSEO workflows from your AI assistant.
Supported networks: Instagram, X, TikTok, Threads, Bluesky, Mastodon, Nostr, Pixelfed, Telegram, Tumblr, WordPress, Ghost, DEV, Whop, Listmonk and Buttondown. Coming soon: LinkedIn, YouTube, Pinterest, Discord, Slack, Lemmy, Dribbble, Kick, Twitch and Farcaster.
Mirror posting: post on X and it is mirrored to your other connected networks.
The hosted server exposes 70 tools; the npm/stdio package exposes 62 of them.
Call get_capabilities for what your workspace can use.
- Hosted MCP endpoint: https://api.timetopost.co/mcp
- Public setup and tool documentation: TimeToPost MCP docs
Recommended setup: hosted server with OAuth
Use the hosted Streamable HTTP server in an MCP client that supports remote
servers and OAuth. Add https://api.timetopost.co/mcp, then follow the browser
sign-in flow and approve access. No local installation or API token copying is
needed.
For Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http timetopost https://api.timetopost.co/mcp
For clients that accept URL-based MCP configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"timetopost": {
"url": "https://api.timetopost.co/mcp"
}
}
}
Client-specific setup details are in the public docs. You can revoke access from Settings → API in TimeToPost.
Claude Code plugin and skill
This repo is also a Claude Code plugin marketplace. The timetopost plugin
bundles the hosted MCP server and a schedule-social-posts skill that runs the
safe workflow: check the workspace with whoami, read recent posts for voice,
draft first, let a human approve, then schedule.
/plugin marketplace add MelMayssonOwen/timetopost-mcp
/plugin install timetopost@timetopost
Then sign in to TimeToPost when Claude Code prompts for MCP authentication.
Other ways to install:
- Skill only, any harness that reads
SKILL.mdfolders. Copyplugins/timetopost/skills/schedule-social-postsinto~/.claude/skills/(or your project's.claude/skills/), and add the MCP server separately. - MCP server only:
claude mcp add --transport http timetopost https://api.timetopost.co/mcp
Before using tools
- Call
whoamito confirm your user, active workspace and credential permissions. - Call
get_capabilitiesfor the current capability map, platform availability and workflow rules. - Call
list_integrationsto check connected accounts and their health.
Confirm the intended workspace before creating drafts, scheduling or publishing. Draft-only credentials can prepare drafts; actions that schedule or publish content require publish permission. Account permissions, workspace scoping, validation and plan limits are enforced by the TimeToPost API.

Local setup: stdio from source
For clients that use a local stdio process, install from this public repository. You need Git, Node.js 18 or later, npm and a TimeToPost API token from Settings → API.
git clone https://github.com/MelMayssonOwen/timetopost-mcp.git
cd timetopost-mcp
npm install
npm run build
Run the install and build commands from the repository root. The built entry
point is dist/src/index.js.
Configure your MCP client to launch it with Node.js:
{
"mcpServers": {
"timetopost": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/absolute/path/to/timetopost-mcp/dist/src/index.js"],
"env": {
"TIMETOPOST_API_URL": "https://api.timetopost.co",
"TIMETOPOST_API_TOKEN": "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_API_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
Replace the example path with the absolute path to your checkout and configure
the token through your client's environment or secret settings. Keep tokens out
of version control. TIMETOPOST_API_URL defaults to https://api.timetopost.co.
You can optionally set TIMETOPOST_ORG_ID to select a workspace your account can
access; confirm the selection with whoami.
After connecting, use the checks in Before using tools to verify your setup.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
