From the repository
View your configured posting time slots. See which days and times you've set for automatic scheduling. Know your content calendar structure without opening the dashboard.
Example prompt: "What time slots do I have set up for next week?"
OAuth lets you sign in with your BlackTwist credentials directly. No key to manage. Best for Claude Web, Claude Mobile, ChatGPT, and Lovable. API Key authentication requires generating a key in your dashboard and adding it to your tool's config. Best for Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, and n8n. Both methods give you the same access to all MCP features.

}What Is BlackTwist MCP Server?
BlackTwist MCP Server connects your Threads and Bluesky accounts to AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and VS Code. Instead of switching tabs and clicking through dashboards, you manage your social media by typing what you want in plain English. MCP stands for Model Context Protocol. It is an open standard created by Anthropic that lets AI assistants talk directly to external tools and services. Think of it as a bridge between your AI assistant and your BlackTwist account. With the BlackTwist MCP Server, your AI assistant can schedule posts, pull analytics, track followers, manage drafts, and set up automated replies. You describe what you want. The server handles the rest. The MCP Server is free on all BlackTwist plans, including the free tier. No credit card required. Setup takes about 30 seconds.How It Works
1. Your AI assistant receives your request ("Schedule a post for tomorrow at 9am") 2. The assistant sends that request to the BlackTwist MCP Server 3. The server executes the action on your Threads or Bluesky account 4. The assistant confirms what happened No copy-pasting. No tab switching. No dashboard required.Supported AI Clients
