Nothing serious here today
Today is the operative word: we check AutomateSocials every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on.
If a tool disappears, we record the date.
knowledge
add_knowledge
Stores text the workspace will want again: product details, positioning, a policy, notes from a call. Use it when the user tells you something factual worth keeping, rather than only using it in this conversation. Give it a title so it can be recognised later.
add_knowledge_from_file
Reads an already uploaded PDF, image or text file and stores what it says so it can be searched. Give it a media id from an upload.
add_knowledge_from_url
Fetches a web page or a PDF at a URL and stores its text so it can be searched later. Use it for the workspace's own site, a product page, a press release. It reads the page as it is served, so a page that needs a sign-in will not work.
delete_knowledge
Removes a stored item and everything derived from it. Name what you are about to delete first.
list_knowledge
Lists what this workspace has stored, with whether each item is searchable yet. Use it when the user asks what you know about them, or when a search came back empty and you want to say why.
search_knowledge
Searches what this workspace has stored: notes, pages, documents, product details. Use it before writing anything factual about them, rather than guessing or asking. It searches by meaning, so ask in whatever words the user used. Returns nothing when the workspace has stored nothing, which is worth saying rather than working around.
post
create_post
Publishes a post, or schedules one to be published. This is not how a draft is saved: use save_draft for that, which needs no confirmation. Publishes immediately by default; pass scheduledTime for a specific moment, or useNextFreeSlot to take the next opening in the calendar. Use variants to word the same post differently per platform. To publish something you saved with save_draft, pass its postId and the draft becomes the post rather than a second copy of it. altText is not supported for Instagram Reels; ignored for Instagram video posts.
delete_post
Deletes a draft, or cancels one that has not gone out yet. A post that is already published cannot be deleted here: it exists on the platform, and removing our record would not remove it.
get_post
The full text of one post, with its pictures, its per-platform wording and its state. Call it before changing or rewriting a post: list_posts only shows the first line of each, and working from that means working from a fragment.
get_post_analytics
The numbers for one published post on every network it went to: the latest reading and every earlier one, so you can say whether it is still growing. Pass refresh: true to read the networks again now (at most every ten minutes); leave it off to use what was already collected.
get_post_status
Returns where a post stands on each platform, including the public link once it is live. Instagram and TikTok process uploads in the background, so a post can be accepted and not yet visible.
workflow
create_workflow
Sets up work that repeats on its own: read a source, write a post, make a picture, publish it. Steps run in the order given. It is created paused and does nothing until start_workflow turns it on, so making one is safe. Use it when the user asks for something to happen daily, weekly or at a set time.
delete_workflow
Removes a workflow and its run history. Posts it already published are untouched.
get_workflow
One workflow in full: every step with its settings, its schedule, and how the last runs went. Read it before changing anything, since update_workflow replaces the steps you pass and you cannot keep what you have not seen.
run_workflow
Runs a workflow immediately, whatever its schedule says, and reports what each step did. Use it to show the user what their workflow actually produces before leaving it to run on its own.
update_workflow
Changes a workflow that already exists: its steps, its name, or when it runs. Pass only what changes. Call get_workflow first when you are changing the steps, since the list you pass replaces the ones that are there. Its run history is kept.
campaign
delete_campaign
Removes a campaign and its plan. Posts it already produced are kept - they are posts like any other, and some may be published.
get_campaign
One campaign in full: every planned post with its date, kind (educational, promotional, engagement, proof, behind_the_scenes, news), theme and angle, and which of them have been written. Read it before changing anything about the campaign.
update_campaign
Changes how a campaign runs: whether its posts get a generated picture, whether it uses the calendar slots, how many days ahead it writes, or its name. Pass only what changes. Pictures apply to the posts not yet written and cost a credit each at the cheapest model - say the number before turning them on.
write_campaign_posts
Writes the next few posts of a campaign immediately instead of waiting for their lead time, and schedules them at their planned dates. Use it to show the user what the plan actually produces.
estimate
estimate_image_cost
Says what generating would cost in credits, without generating. Use it when the user asks what something would cost. You do not need it before generating: the confirmation prompt already states the price.
estimate_scrape_cost
Says what reading someone’s posts would cost in credits, without reading anything.
estimate_source_cost
Says what youtube, tiktok, audio or research would cost in credits, without reading anything. Article, PDF and plain text pages are free: use add_knowledge_from_url or add_knowledge for those instead.
estimate_video_cost
Says what a video of a given length and resolution would cost in credits, without making one. Use it whenever the user has not agreed to a price, since video is the most expensive thing here.
brand
get_brand_kit
The workspace's voice, audience, rules and example posts, which everything written for it follows. Your instructions already carry the voice and the rules (in the app and over MCP alike), so call this for the full kit: when the user asks what is set, when you are about to change something, or when you need the example posts.
update_brand_kit
Records what the workspace sounds like. Pass only the fields you are changing; anything you leave out is kept. Example posts matter most: ask for two or three things they actually published, since those define the voice better than adjectives do. Use this whenever the user tells you something about their voice, audience or rules, rather than remembering it for one conversation.
connect
connect_account
Produces a link the user opens to connect a social account. Authorization happens on the platform, so give them the link and wait; the account appears in list_accounts once they have finished. Use this when an account they want is missing, or when one is marked as needing a reconnect.
connect_instagram
Connects an Instagram business account found by list_instagram_accounts. With only one available, instagramId can be left out. Replaces a different Instagram account already on this project, as every connection does.
edit
edit_campaign_plan
Adds posts to a campaign plan, removes planned ones, or rewrites their theme and angle. This is how you add "one more post about X" without planning the campaign again. Posts already written keep their words - use edit_post for those - and removing one that is already written is refused.
edit_post
Changes a post that already exists: its words, its pictures, the platforms it is for, or any combination. Pass only what changes; everything else stays. This is how you rewrite a draft or swap its image - do not write a second copy. Read it with get_post first when you are changing the words, since you cannot rewrite what you have not read. Works on drafts and on posts that are scheduled but have not gone out; a published post cannot be edited here.
generate
generate_image
Makes a picture from a description and stores it, ready to attach to a post. Call it as soon as you know what the picture should be: the user is asked to confirm the spend before it runs, with the price, so you do not need to ask them first. Describe the subject and the setting in the prompt; the model cannot see the brand kit, so put anything from it that matters into the words. If the project has set an image prompt, it is wrapped around what you write and sets the look, so you do not need to repeat the house style.
generate_video
Makes a short video with its own audio and stores it, ready to attach to a post. It takes a few minutes: over MCP or the API it may answer with status "processing" and a jobId instead of a mediaId; then call get_video_status with that jobId until it gives the mediaId, and only then save the draft. Say what it will cost first; video is the most expensive thing here and is charged by the second. Pass imageId to animate a picture the project already has - a product photo or one you generated - and it becomes the first frame. Structure the prompt with [VISUAL], [SPEECH], [SOUNDS] and [TEXT] sections; English is the language the model is validated in.
schedule
delete_schedule
Cancels a post that has not gone out yet. A post that is already published cannot be cancelled: the platform has it and we do not.
update_schedule
Changes when a post goes out, or takes it off the calendar and leaves it as a draft. Pass scheduledTime for a specific moment or useNextFreeSlot to take the next opening. A post that has already gone out cannot be moved.
slots
create_slots
Adds recurring weekly openings to the calendar. Times are in the workspace timezone. Adding more slots than there is content for produces gaps, so ask how often the user actually wants to post.
list_slots
Lists the recurring weekly openings this workspace publishes in, and which of the coming ones are already taken. Read this before scheduling, so posts land in the rhythm the user already chose.
start
start_campaign
Turns a campaign on. Its posts are written a couple of days before each one goes out and land in the calendar as scheduled, where they can still be read, edited or cancelled. Posts with pictures spend credits as they are written. Tell the user how many posts and roughly how many credits before calling this.
start_workflow
Turns a workflow on. From then on it runs to its schedule and publishes without asking again, so make sure the user has seen what it does. Use stop_workflow to pause it.
video
get_video_status
Whether a video generate_video started is ready. Pass the jobId it returned. When it is done this gives the mediaId to attach to a post with save_draft, edit_post or create_post. If it is still being made, wait about a minute and ask again; never generate it a second time and never make up a media id.
list_video_models
The video models available, what each costs per second at each resolution, and how long a clip can be. Call it when the user asks whether you can make video.
accounts
list_accounts
Lists the social accounts connected to this workspace, with their platform, handle and whether they are currently usable. Call this before writing or scheduling, so you only offer platforms that are actually connected.
analyze
analyze_website
Reads the project's website and fills in what it does, who it is for, its keywords and its voice. Use it when the brand kit is empty and you know the address, instead of interviewing the user about things their own site already says. It fills only empty fields unless you say otherwise.
buy
buy_credits
Returns a Stripe checkout link for a credit pack. Nothing is charged until the user opens the link and pays; the credits are added to their account as soon as Stripe confirms the payment. Packs: starter (50 credits, $4.99), growth (200, $14.99), power (500, $29.99), power_plus (1000, $49.99). Credits never expire. Give the user the link; never claim the credits were added.
campaigns
list_campaigns
The campaigns in this project, what each is for, and how far through it is.
cancel
cancel_campaign_posts
Pauses a campaign and cancels every post of it that has not gone out yet. Posts already published are untouched: they exist on the platform.
choose
choose_facebook_page
Sets which Facebook page this project posts to, when its Facebook connection holds several. The other pages are removed from this project only. Ask the user which page belongs to this project; list_subaccounts gives the choices.
complete
complete_upload
Call after PUTting a file to the presigned uploadUrl: checks the file arrived and records its size and type. Says so if the file is not there yet.
credits
get_credits
Returns the credit balance for the workspace. Credits pay for generated images, video, transcription and scraping; writing, publishing and scheduling are free on paid plans.
default
set_default_image_model
Sets which model this workspace generates with unless told otherwise. Use it when the user says they want a particular one from now on.
disconnect
disconnect_account
Removes a connected account and cancels anything still scheduled to it. Say how many posts that is before asking the user to confirm.
image
list_image_models
The image models available, what each costs in credits, and which one this workspace uses by default. Call it when the user asks what you can make images with, or before generating if they might care about the price.
instagram
list_instagram_accounts
Lists the Instagram business accounts linked to the connected Facebook pages, the ones this project can post to. Facebook must be connected first. Follow with connect_instagram.
learn
learn_voice_from_published
Fills the brand kit's example posts from what this workspace has already published. Use it when the brand kit has no examples and there is a publishing history, instead of asking the user to paste posts they have already sent.
media
get_media
Returns the stored details of one media asset, including whether its bytes have arrived.
next
next_available_slot
Returns the next free opening in the calendar, without taking it. Use it to tell the user when a post would go out before scheduling it.
noop
noop
Verifies the connection end to end. Returns the caller identity, the channel it arrived on, and the server time. It is for someone checking that an API key or an MCP setup works, and it does nothing else: never call it as a step in doing what the user asked.
pause
pause_campaign
Stops a campaign writing any more posts. Posts already written keep their place in the calendar; cancel them individually if they should not go out.
plan
plan_campaign
Plans a run of posts around one goal: what each post is for, its theme and its angle, spread over the days the project posts on. It writes nothing and publishes nothing - the plan is one line per post, to be read and changed before anything is written. Use this when the user wants a month of content, a launch, or anything with more than a couple of posts behind one idea.
posts
list_posts
Lists posts in this workspace, newest first, with the first line of each. Use it before writing to check what has already been said. The text here is shortened: to work on a post, read it with get_post first.
presigned
create_presigned_upload_url
Returns a presigned URL for uploading a local file directly to storage. PUT the file bytes to uploadUrl with the same Content-Type, call complete_upload with the mediaId, then use mediaId or publicUrl when creating a post.
project
delete_project
Permanently deletes the current project and everything in it: posts, scheduled posts, connected accounts, knowledge, workflows, campaigns and its API keys. Credits are not affected. Only the owner can do it, it cannot be the only project, and confirmName must be the project name exactly as the user typed it. Before calling, tell the user what will be lost and have them type the name. It cannot be undone.
projects
check_projects
Counts what each of your projects holds and checks that nothing crosses between them: posts, accounts, pages, campaigns, workflows, knowledge and media. Run it after adding a project, or whenever something looks like it belongs somewhere else.
save
save_draft
Saves a post you have written so it appears under Drafts and can be published or scheduled later. Use it whenever you write a post the user has not asked you to publish yet, instead of leaving it in the conversation: a draft in the chat is lost, a saved one is not. Always name the platforms it is for, and attach any picture you made for it. To change something that already exists, use edit_post rather than saving a second copy. Nothing is published by this.
schedules
list_schedules
Lists posts waiting to go out, soonest first.
scrape
scrape_posts
Reads recent posts from a public profile on Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok or X, and keeps them so patterns across weeks can be seen. Use it to look at a competitor before writing, or as the first step of a workflow. It costs credits per post read, so say what it will cost first.
scrapers
list_scrapers
The networks this server can read posts from, and what each costs per result. Call it when the user asks whether you can look at a competitor.
slot
delete_slot
Removes one recurring opening. Posts already scheduled into it keep their time.
source
read_source
Turns a YouTube video, a TikTok, an audio file, or a research question into text to write from. sourceType youtube or tiktok take a video url and read its spoken transcript (English captions for YouTube; TikTok's own captions when it has them, speech-to-text otherwise). sourceType audio takes a url to a recording and transcribes it. sourceType research takes a question and answers it from a live web search. Each costs credits; quote it first with estimate_source_cost. The text is stored in the knowledge base unless saveToKnowledge is false, and is also returned here so it can be used straight away.
stop
stop_workflow
Pauses a workflow so it stops running on its own. Nothing is deleted and it can be started again.
subaccounts
list_subaccounts
Lists the pages, organizations or boards an account can publish to. Facebook posts go to a page and LinkedIn can post as a company, so this is where the id for those comes from.
tiktok
get_tiktok_settings
Reads, from TikTok, what the connected TikTok account may post: the account name, the privacy levels it offers, whether comments, Duet and Stitch are allowed, and the longest video. Call it before publishing to TikTok, show the user the account name, and ask them to choose the privacy level (there is no default), whether to allow comments (and Duet and Stitch for video), and whether the post promotes their own brand or is branded content. Pass their answers in create_post as platformTargets.tiktok.
top
list_top_posts
Ranks published posts by how they did: views, likes, comments, shares, reach, saves, or engagement (likes + comments + shares + saves). Each network a post went to is ranked on its own. Numbers are the ones already collected (an hour, a day and a week after publishing, then daily for a month); nothing is fetched from the networks. Use it for "which post worked", "what did best on LinkedIn this month", or before planning what to write next.
upload
upload_media_from_url
Downloads a publicly reachable file into storage and returns a stable URL to use in posts. Use this for images or video that already live on the web.
user
get_user
Returns the signed-in user, the active workspace, the plan and the credit balance. Call this first to confirm which workspace you are acting on.
workflows
list_workflows
The workflows in this project, what they do, when they next run, and how the last run went. Call it when the user asks what is running on its own.
youtube
get_youtube_settings
Reads, from YouTube, the connected channel a Short would go to: its name and handle, who can be chosen to watch (public, unlisted, private) and the longest Short (3 minutes). Call it before publishing to YouTube, show the user the channel, and ask them for a title (at most 100 characters), who can watch it, and whether it is made for kids. Pass their answers in create_post as platformTargets.youtube: title, privacyStatus, isMadeForKids. The video must be vertical or square.

AutomateSocials — questions
Answers built from our own checks of this server.
What can AutomateSocials do?
It exposes 76 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: add_knowledge, add_knowledge_from_file, add_knowledge_from_url, analyze_website, buy_credits, cancel_campaign_posts and 70 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README.
How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
What is AutomateSocials mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around knowledge, workflow and post. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is AutomateSocials working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 1032 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect AutomateSocials?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does AutomateSocials need an API key?
No. AutomateSocials completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 76 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is AutomateSocials?
It answers our handshake in 1032 ms on average, which is faster than 5% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
