Let AI agents draft, schedule and publish posts to 17 social platforms, read analytics and reply.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Hosted ShortSync MCP server that lets an AI assistant draft, schedule and publish social posts to 17 platforms, then read analytics and reply to comments.

What you can do
  • Check account, workspaces, connected platforms, Pinterest boards and Discord channels
  • Upload videos and images, create carousels and manage library folders
  • Create and edit post drafts, batch updates, replace media and set thumbnails
  • Schedule, batch schedule, publish now or cancel posts, and list scheduled posts
  • Read workspace, folder, video and post analytics and sync analytics data
  • List comments and DMs, reply to comments, like, mark seen or spam
When to use it
Useful when you manage social accounts for yourself or a small team and want an assistant to prepare, schedule and publish multi-platform posts, review performance, or handle inbox replies without switching between dashboards.
Requirements
A remote Streamable HTTP endpoint; nothing to install. A ShortSync account signed in through OAuth 2.1 in the browser, with consent on the first tool call. Works on every plan, including the free plan with 5 uploads a month.
Before you install
The assistant can publish, schedule and cancel posts and reply to comments, which is visible to your audience; review before approving. It reads analytics and inbox messages from connected accounts. Access tokens last 1 hour and refresh tokens 30 days, and access can be revoked in ShortSync settings. Calls are limited to 60 a minute per token.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open ShortSync in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/app.shortsync%2Fshortsync/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

README

[ShortSync]

ShortSync MCP server

[ShortSync MCP server on Glama]

Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Gemini CLI or any MCP client to ShortSync, a social media scheduler for creators and small teams. Your AI assistant can upload videos and images, write a caption for each platform, and post or schedule them to 17 social platforms at once, then read the analytics and reply to comments.

This is a hosted remote server. There is nothing to install or run: point your client at the URL below and sign in with your ShortSync account.

AI agents setting this up: don't clone this repo or edit the user's project. Add one remote server entry to your own MCP settings, as shown below or in llms-install.md.

This server asks you to sign in, so SourceWeft could not read its tools without an account and has not indexed them. What a connected account sees can depend on that account and its permissions.
