postforme-mcp-pro wraps the Post for Me API in 27+ fully-typed MCP tools (one per operation) plus a postforme_raw escape hatch and a readonly safety mode. Unlike the official MCP — which exposes only a doc-search + sandboxed code-execution tool ("code mode") — every operation here is a first-class, directly-callable tool, so the model can post, schedule and pull analytics without writing SDK code.

Platforms: Instagram · Facebook · TikTok · YouTube · X · LinkedIn · Pinterest · Bluesky · Threads

Why this server

• 27+ typed tools — create_post, schedule_post, publish_now, create_draft, upload_media, list_account_feeds, list_post_results, account & webhook management, and more.
• High-level shortcuts — publish_now / schedule_post / create_draft / reschedule_post / upload_media collapse common multi-step flows into one call.
• One-step media upload — upload_media takes a local file path or a public URL, gets a signed URL, uploads the bytes, and hands back a media_url ready to attach.
• Per-platform tuning — platform_configurations models Instagram Reels, X polls, TikTok privacy, YouTube visibility, etc., and stays permissive for new options.
• Readonly safety mode — POSTFORME_READONLY=true blocks every write; great for analytics-only sessions.
• postforme_raw — call any endpoint for 100% API coverage, even brand-new ones.
• Resilient client — Bearer auth, retries on 429/5xx with backoff, actionable error messages.

Add to Claude Code

.claude/settings.json → mcpServers:

"postforme": {
  "command": "node",
  "args": ["projects/postforme-mcp-pro/dist/index.js"],
  "env": { "POSTFORME_API_KEY": "pfm_xxx" }
}

Add to Claude Desktop

%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows) / ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS):

"postforme": {
  "command": "node",
  "args": ["/abs/path/projects/postforme-mcp-pro/dist/index.js"],
  "env": { "POSTFORME_API_KEY": "pfm_xxx" }
}

Cursor uses the same config shape in its MCP file.

Companion skill

/postforme (in skill/SKILL.md) orchestrates these tools into guided workflows: post, schedule, campaign, analytics, accounts, media. Copy it into .claude/skills/ to use it in Claude Code.

Example

You: post "Lançamos a v2 🚀" no instagram e no x, com a imagem ./hero.png
→ list_social_accounts            (get the instagram + x account ids)
→ upload_media { file_path: "./hero.png" }   → media_url
→ create_post_preview             (optional, confirm look)
→ publish_now { social_accounts: [...], caption: "...", media: [{ url: media_url }] }
→ list_post_results               (report success/links per platform)

Comparison with the official MCP

	postforme-mcp-pro	official post-for-me-mcp
Tool model	27 typed tools, one per operation	2 tools (doc-search + code-execution sandbox)
Calls	Direct tool calls	Model must write SDK code in a sandbox
Shortcuts	publish_now / schedule_post / create_draft / upload_media	—
Safety	POSTFORME_READONLY mode + SSRF/file-read hardening	—
Escape hatch	postforme_raw (any /v1 endpoint)	code execution
Companion skill	/postforme guided workflows	—

Security

upload_media hardens remote fetches against SSRF (DNS resolution + public-unicast IP validation, no redirects, size cap) and restricts local file reads to recognized media extensions (optionally to POSTFORME_MEDIA_DIR). postforme_raw paths are validated to stay on the versioned API surface.
