# Socialclaw > Social media scheduling and publishing via SocialClaw. Use when connecting accounts, scheduling posts, uploading media, or managing campaigns on X, LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Discord, Telegram, YouTube, Reddit, WordPress, or Pinterest. - **Type:** Skill - **Install:** `agentstack add skill-ndesv21-socialclaw-socialclaw` - **Verified:** Yes — security-reviewed for prompt injection and unsafe behavior - **Seller:** [ndesv21](https://agentstack.voostack.com/s/ndesv21) - **Installs:** 0 - **Category:** [Communication](https://agentstack.voostack.com/c/communication) - **Latest version:** 0.1.0 - **License:** MIT - **Upstream author:** [ndesv21](https://github.com/ndesv21) - **Source:** https://github.com/ndesv21/socialclaw/tree/main/skills/socialclaw - **Website:** https://getsocialclaw.com ## Install ```sh agentstack add skill-ndesv21-socialclaw-socialclaw ``` Requires the [AgentStack CLI](https://agentstack.voostack.com/docs/cli). Works with Claude Code, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible agent. ## About # SocialClaw SocialClaw is a workspace-scoped social publishing service at `https://getsocialclaw.com`. This skill is an instruction layer for the hosted SocialClaw service. It teaches Claude Code how to: - get or use a workspace API key - call the SocialClaw HTTP API - understand provider and account-type caveats - optionally use the separate `socialclaw` CLI if it is already installed This skill can work without the CLI. The CLI is only an optional client for the same hosted service. Use this skill when the user wants to: - connect or disconnect social accounts in a SocialClaw workspace - upload media and get SocialClaw-hosted delivery URLs - validate, preview, apply, or inspect scheduled posts and campaigns - inspect connected account capabilities, publish settings, actions, jobs, health, or analytics Do not use this skill for editing the SocialClaw codebase itself. This is for operating a deployed SocialClaw workspace. ## Defaults - Base URL: `https://getsocialclaw.com` - Auth: workspace API key in `Authorization: Bearer ` - Preferred interface: `socialclaw` CLI when installed - Fallback interface: SocialClaw HTTP API ## Runtime requirements - Required env: `SC_API_KEY` - Hosted base URL: `https://getsocialclaw.com` - Optional CLI: `socialclaw` or `social` if already installed - Workspace status: an active trial or paid plan is required for CLI/API execution through the workspace key ## Optional CLI SocialClaw has a separate npm CLI package named `socialclaw`. Prefer it when it is already installed or the user wants command-line examples. The CLI is a client for the hosted SocialClaw service. It can: - store a workspace API key locally - start account connection flows - upload assets - validate, preview, and apply schedules - inspect posts, runs, analytics, usage, and workspace health - install the packaged Claude Code command with `socialclaw install --claude` If the user explicitly wants the CLI and it is not installed yet: ```bash npm install -g socialclaw ``` ## Quick start If the user does not have a workspace API key yet: ```bash open https://getsocialclaw.com/dashboard ``` Tell them: - sign in with Google - open the API key section - create or copy their workspace API key Set: ```bash export SC_API_KEY="" ``` If the CLI is installed, log in with it: ```bash socialclaw login --api-key ``` Otherwise validate the key over HTTP: ```bash curl -sS \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $SC_API_KEY" \ "https://getsocialclaw.com/v1/keys/validate" ``` If execution fails with `plan_required`, `subscription_inactive`, `subscription_past_due`, `subscription_paused`, or `subscription_canceled`, direct the user to: - `https://getsocialclaw.com/pricing` - `https://getsocialclaw.com/dashboard` ## Operating rules 1. Start by confirming the user has a SocialClaw workspace API key. 2. If the user does not have a key yet, send them to `https://getsocialclaw.com/dashboard` to sign in with Google and create one. 3. A workspace API key alone is not sufficient for execution. If billing-related errors appear, route the user to pricing or dashboard billing instead of retrying commands. 4. Never ask the user for provider app secrets. End users connect accounts inside SocialClaw. 5. Prefer explicit provider and account-type language: - Facebook Pages, not Facebook personal profiles - Instagram Business linked to a Facebook Page - Instagram standalone professional accounts - LinkedIn profile and LinkedIn page are separate providers - Pinterest is board-centric; inspect capabilities and actions before assuming sections, catalogs, or advanced surfaces 6. If a provider workflow is not supported, say so directly instead of inventing a workaround. 7. Treat Pinterest product, collection, and idea surfaces as capability-gated or beta unless account capabilities or actions explicitly advertise them. 8. Avoid echoing full API keys back into chat. ## Main workflow 1. Confirm the user has a workspace API key. 2. If needed, direct the user to the dashboard to sign in with Google and create a key. 3. Validate workspace access. 4. List accounts or start a connection flow. 5. Inspect capabilities and settings for the target account. 6. Upload media if needed. 7. Validate or preview the post or campaign. 8. Apply it. 9. Inspect posts, runs, analytics, or retry or reconcile if needed. ## Provider-specific publishing notes ### TikTok photo posts TikTok photo/gallery posts are stricter than video posts. Before scheduling or applying a TikTok photo post: - Use image-only assets for the post; do not mix images and videos. - Keep each gallery within TikTok's connected-account capability limit, typically up to 35 images. - Normalize photos before upload to TikTok-safe dimensions. Prefer 1080x1920 JPEGs for vertical photo slides, or another standard TikTok-compatible aspect/size. Oversized or unusual dimensions can pass SocialClaw validation and initial TikTok acceptance, then fail later with `picture_size_check_failed`. - For photo galleries, set `settings.autoAddMusic: true` when the user wants TikTok to choose recommended music. TikTok's Content Posting API does not expose selecting a specific sound. - Avoid setting a visible `name`/title unless the user explicitly wants one. For TikTok posts, put user-facing copy in `description`; otherwise dashboards or previews may show an unwanted title field. - After posting a TikTok photo gallery, do not assume `providerStatus: accepted` means it is visible. Reconcile the post after a short delay: ```bash socialclaw posts reconcile --post-id --json ``` Treat `providerStatus: published` with `reconciliationStatus: confirmed` as the stronger success signal. If reconciliation returns `picture_size_check_failed`, regenerate resized/padded images, upload those corrected assets, and reschedule. ## CLI reference ### Authentication ```bash socialclaw login --api-key ``` Install the packaged command file: ```bash socialclaw install --claude ``` ### Accounts ```bash socialclaw accounts list --json socialclaw accounts capabilities --account-id --json socialclaw accounts settings --account-id --json socialclaw accounts actions --account-id --json socialclaw accounts connect --provider --open socialclaw accounts connect --provider telegram --bot-token --chat-id @yourchannel --json socialclaw accounts connect --provider discord --webhook-url --json socialclaw accounts status --connection-id --json socialclaw accounts disconnect --account-id --json ``` ### Media ```bash socialclaw assets upload --file ./image.png --json socialclaw assets delete --asset-id --retention-days 7 --json ``` ### Schedules and campaigns ```bash socialclaw validate -f schedule.json --json socialclaw campaigns preview -f schedule.json --json socialclaw apply -f schedule.json --json socialclaw campaigns inspect --run-id --json socialclaw campaigns clone --run-id --output cloned.json --json socialclaw publish-draft --run-id --start-at 2026-03-25T10:00:00.000Z --json ``` ### Posts and runs ```bash socialclaw posts list --limit 20 --json socialclaw posts get --post-id --json socialclaw posts attempts --post-id --json socialclaw posts reconcile --post-id --json socialclaw runs inspect --run-id --json socialclaw status --run-id --json socialclaw retry --post-id --json socialclaw cancel --post-id --json socialclaw view --run-id --format terminal ``` ### Analytics and health ```bash socialclaw analytics post --post-id --json socialclaw analytics account --account-id --json socialclaw analytics run --run-id --json socialclaw analytics refresh --post-id --json socialclaw workspace health --json socialclaw connections health --json socialclaw jobs list --limit 20 --json socialclaw usage --json ``` ## HTTP fallback If the CLI is not available, use the HTTP API directly.
