OpenClaw and Posty

Your agent posts even when you are not watching

OpenClaw runs on your own machine or server, and it drives Posty over MCP. It can watch a folder, start on a schedule, upload media, then create posts in the calendar.

Get started How to connect them

Paste this to OpenClaw:

Install the Posty CLI: npm install -g posty-cli, then sign in: posty auth:login. The package SKILL.md file describes every command, details: https://posty.hu/ai/openclaw

Getting started

Four commands to get started

You install the CLI, sign in to the account, fetch the integrations, then create the first post. After that you can run the CLI from cron and from CI too.

terminal

# Install the official CLI
$ npm install -g posty-cli
# Sign in to the Posty account
$ posty auth:login
# Fetch the available integrations
$ posty integrations:list
[{ "id": "cmf3k7…", "name": "Cafe · Instagram" }]
# Create a scheduled post
$ posty posts:create \
$   -c "New brunch menu this Saturday." \
$   -i "cmf3k7…" \
$   -s "2026-08-16 09:00" --timezone Europe/Budapest
✅ Post created successfully!
{ "id": "cmf7p2…", "state": "QUEUE" }

The CLI writes JSON to standard output, and status and errors to standard error. On error the exit code is non-zero.

Media: always two steps

terminal

$ posty upload ./termekfoto.jpg
✅ File uploaded successfully!
{ "path": "https://…/uploads/termekfoto.jpg" }
$ posty posts:create \
$   -c "Our new product is here." \
$   -m "https://…/uploads/termekfoto.jpg" \
$   -i "cmf3k7…" \
$   -s "2026-08-16 18:00" --timezone Europe/Budapest

Three paths

From background work to approval

OpenClaw reaches the same Posty account over MCP, the CLI or the REST API. You review the finished plan in the calendar.

From task to schedule

OpenClaw creates a scheduled post from the instruction in the current session. In Posty it can also carry a multi-step job through in the background.

Media in two steps

It uploads the file first with the posty upload command, then passes the URL it gets to the posts:create -m option. Publishing does not accept a raw file path.

A calendar you can read

OpenClaw fetches the posts on the calendar, then rearranges the plan as you ask. With the posts:find-slot command it can also look for a free slot.

CLI for automation

OpenClaw can also reach the same account through the CLI. In cron and CI it authenticates with the POSTY_API_KEY environment variable, with no browser sign-in.

Public REST API

The public REST API is the third path to the same account. OpenClaw can reach Posty this way too, when the task calls for it.

Approval in the calendar

OpenClaw can work in the background, but every decision is visible. You review and approve the posts in the Posty calendar before they go out.

Connecting step by step

Connecting OpenClaw and Posty

You connect the accounts in Posty, and OpenClaw gets a ready-made config block. Then you check the plan in the calendar.

Connect the accounts

On the Posty web app, you connect your social accounts through OAuth. This is where you pick which platforms OpenClaw can work on.

OAuth on the Posty web app

terminal

$ posty integrations:list
[
  { "id": "cmf3k7…", "name": "Cafe · Instagram" },
  { "id": "cmf3k9…", "name": "Cafe · Facebook" }
]

Create a key

On the Settings → Developers page you create a new Posty access key that starts with psty_mcp_…. This is also where you get the ready-made config block for OpenClaw.

Key on the Developers page

.env

# Settings → Developers → New key
# We show the key once, when you create it.
 
# For the command line and the REST API:
POSTY_API_KEY=AZ_API_KULCSOD
 
# MCP clients get a separate key:
# psty_mcp_…

Hand it to OpenClaw

You paste the block from Posty into the mcp.servers section of the OpenClaw config, with streamable-http transport. Or you install the CLI and set the POSTY_API_KEY environment variable.

MCP block or CLI key

OpenClaw config

{
  "mcp": {
    "servers": {
      "posty": {
        "url": "https://api.posty.hu/mcp/AZ_API_KULCSOD",
        "transport": "streamable-http"
      }
    }
  }
}

Check them in the calendar

OpenClaw schedules the posts, and you review and approve them in the Posty calendar. That way you check the plan it built in the background before anything goes out.

Approval in the Posty calendar

terminal

$ posty posts:list
[
  { "id": "cmf7p2…", "state": "QUEUE",
    "publishDate": "2026-08-16T07:00:00Z" },
  { "id": "cmf7q8…", "state": "DRAFT",
    "publishDate": "2026-08-18T06:30:00Z" }
]

In short

What is OpenClaw?

OpenClaw is an open agent runner that you host on your own machine or server. It is not a chat window. It keeps running in the background, can watch a folder, start on a schedule, and carry a multi-step job through on its own.

You can give it a watched folder or a scheduled task. OpenClaw notices the new file, does the steps it needs to, then finishes the work even when you are not watching.

It connects to Posty as an MCP client. You paste the block you get into the mcp.servers section of the OpenClaw config, with streamable-http transport. For cron and CI you can also use the CLI with the POSTY_API_KEY environment variable, straight to the same Posty account.

Runs in your own environment

OpenClaw runs on your own machine or server. You do not have to keep a chat window open for the whole background job.

Works in the background

It can watch a folder, start on a schedule, and carry several steps through. It can finish the job even when you are busy with something else.

Connects as an MCP client

The block from Posty goes into the mcp.servers config, with streamable-http transport. That is how OpenClaw connects to the Posty MCP server.

Built for agents

A predictable interface for background work

Posty gives OpenClaw machine-readable JSON output. It writes status and errors to a separate stream. A failed run exits with a non-zero code.

JSON on the outputThe agent parses the machine-readable JSON written to standard output directly.
Clear error signalsThe CLI writes errors to standard error. A failed run exits with a non-zero code.
Bundled skill fileThe SKILL.md in the npm package teaches the agent how to use the CLI correctly.
Flat command setThe agent gets a flat command set, so it does not have to track hidden state.
Three access modesThe agent can reach the same Posty account over MCP, the CLI and the REST API.

SKILL.md

---
name: posty
description: Posty schedules and publishes social posts
  from the command line.
homepage: https://posty.hu
---
 
# Output contract
 
Every command prints its JSON result — and nothing
else — to stdout; status lines, warnings and errors
go to stderr, and every failure exits 1.
 
# Two Hard Rules (Read First)
 
Rule 1 — Authenticate before anything.
Rule 2 — Every file passed to `-m` MUST first go
through `posty upload`.

The agent learns how to use the CLI from the SKILL.md file in the npm package, with no extra training.

Flag

What it means

posts:create flags

-c, --contentThe post text. Repeat it to make a thread: the first is the post, the rest are comments.

-m, --mediaMedia for the -c that comes before it. The URL has to come from posty upload.

-i, --integrationsIds of the target social accounts, comma-separated.

--date, -sWhen to publish. Either with an explicit offset, or together with the --timezone flag.

--timezoneIANA timezone name, for example Europe/Budapest. Only pass a date with no offset together with this.

-t, --typeschedule (default), draft, or now.

-d, --delayDelay in MINUTES between items in the thread.

--jsonThe full post description from a JSON file, when the flags are not enough.

--settingsPlatform-specific settings as JSON. The schema comes from integrations:settings.

The commands write JSON to standard output, and status and errors to standard error.

FAQ

Common questions

What is OpenClaw, and where does it run?

OpenClaw is an open agent runner that you run on your own machine or server. It is not a chat window. It is an agent that works in the background.

How do I connect OpenClaw to Posty?

On the Settings → Developers page you create a key that starts with psty_mcp_…. You paste the block you get there into the mcp.servers section of the OpenClaw config, with streamable-http transport. The MCP server URL is https://api.posty.hu/mcp.

Can I pass a direct file path for the post?

No. You upload the file first with the posty upload command, then pass the URL you get to the posts:create -m option. Publishing rejects a raw file path.

Which CLI package should I install?

Install with npm install -g posty-cli. The installed command is named posty. The bare posty package name on npm belongs to a different package. The source is at github.com/norbertlevente/posty-agent, under the AGPL-3.0 license.

Where do I check OpenClaw's decisions?

You see the posts and times it created in the Posty calendar. You review and approve the plan here before anything goes out. That way the background work can still be checked.

Which plan includes these connections?

MCP, the public REST API and the CLI are part of the Pro, Kreátor and Csapat plans. Posty has no built-in AI copywriter, on purpose: you bring your own model. You can connect the account to 12+ platforms.
