Post to social media from Cursor
Add the yeetpost MCP server to Cursor's mcp.json with an API key and Cursor's agent can post, schedule and queue to your connected accounts. It is one JSON block and a restart.
Set it up
The server is a Streamable HTTP MCP endpoint at https://api.yeetpost.com/api/v2/mcp.
Connect at least one account in the yeetpost console (https://app.yeetpost.com). Each connection gets a slug, such as linkedin or bluesky, which is how the agent addresses it.
Create an API key on the API page of the yeetpost console (https://app.yeetpost.com/app/api). A key starting yp_test_ reaches sandbox connections only and publishes nothing, which is the one to use while you wire this up.
Open ~/.cursor/mcp.json (every project) or .cursor/mcp.json (one project, and keep the key out of git). Add the server:
{ "mcpServers": { "yeetpost": { "url": "https://api.yeetpost.com/api/v2/mcp", "headers": { "x-api-key": "yp_secret_your_key_here" } } } }Reload Cursor, check that yeetpost shows as connected in the MCP settings, and ask the agent to post.
Three things to ask
- Post to my Discord channel: deploy finished, v2.4 is live.
- Write a changelog post from my last 5 commits and queue it to LinkedIn and Bluesky.
- Show the status of the last post you sent, with its link.
What Cursor gets
All 37 tools of the yeetpost MCP server, including:
get_context: Start here. Who you act as, live or test mode, the plan, what is left of today's allowance, and what needs attention (failed posts, expired logins, connections with no slots), each with its fix.create_post: Post to one or more connections now, at scheduledFor, into the queue, or as a draft, with images, a timezone and an idempotencyKey so a retry never posts twice.list_posts: List posts, newest first, filtered by status, tag, connection, platform, profile, send group or time, with paging.draw_card: Draw an image card for an existing post in its connection's look, to show the user and attach when they say yes.get_post_metrics: A post's numbers over time, and whether yeetpost is collecting them for its connection.
The full list is on the MCP docs page.
FAQ
- Which platforms can Cursor post to through yeetpost?
- LinkedIn, X, Bluesky, Discord, Telegram and Mastodon. Reddit, Facebook, Instagram, Threads, Google Business Profile, Slack, SMS and email are not live yet.
- Can I try it without posting for real?
- Yes. A test key (starts yp_test_) sees sandbox connections only: posts are validated and answered like a real platform's, and nothing is published.
- Does it cost anything?
- Posts are unlimited on every plan. Billing is per connected account, with the first 2 free. X is the one platform with a per-post fee, passed through at X's own cost: 1.5 cents a post, 20 cents when the post has a link.
- Which tools does the agent get?
- All 37 tools of the hosted MCP server: posting, scheduling and queues, drafts, brand voice and image cards, media, connections and sources. The full list is on the MCP docs page.
