io.github.arslan2012/qpost-mcp
MCP server for QPost — lets AI agents publish video and image posts to YouTube, TikTok, Instagram.
Install
Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).
claude mcp add --transport http qpost-mcp 'https://qpost.dev/mcp' --header 'x-api-key: <API key from your QPost dashboard (Settings > API Keys)>'
{
"mcpServers": {
"qpost-mcp": {

"url": "https://qpost.dev/mcp",
"headers": {
"x-api-key": "<API key from your QPost dashboard (Settings > API Keys)>"
}
}
}
}

qpost-mcp
MCP server for QPost — lets AI agents schedule and publish video/image posts to YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram through QPost's REST API.
Install
Generate an API key from your QPost dashboard (Settings → API Keys), then pick one of the two options below.
Hosted (recommended — nothing to install)
QPost runs the same server at https://qpost.dev/mcp over Streamable HTTP:
claude mcp add --transport http qpost https://qpost.dev/mcp \
--header "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"
Any MCP client that speaks Streamable HTTP can point at that URL with an
x-api-key (or Authorization: Bearer) header. The endpoint is stateless, so
there is no session to manage.
Local (stdio) via npx
Use this if you self-host QPost or would rather run the server yourself:
claude mcp add qpost -e QPOST_API_KEY=your_key_here -- npx -y qpost-mcp
Claude Desktop / other MCP clients
{
"mcpServers": {
"qpost": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "qpost-mcp"],
"env": {
"QPOST_API_KEY": "your_key_here"
}
}
}
}
Set QPOST_BASE_URL too if you're self-hosting QPost (defaults to https://qpost.dev).
Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
list_connected_accounts | List connected YouTube/TikTok/Instagram accounts and their status |
create_post | Create and publish (or schedule) a post, with video or image media from a URL or local path |
list_posts | List posts, optionally filtered by status/platform |
get_post | Get a single post by ID |
update_post | Update a post's caption/schedule/timezone/status |
delete_post | Delete a post |
retry_post | Retry a failed post |
Media handling differs by transport
The local stdio server can read files from your machine, so create_post
accepts mediaPath as well as mediaUrl. The hosted endpoint obviously
cannot reach your disk — it takes mediaUrl/imageUrls, or mediaBase64
with an optional mediaFilename to set the MIME type.
Full request/response shapes and per-platform metadata options (YouTube category/privacy, TikTok privacy level, Instagram media type, etc.) are documented at qpost.dev/docs — this server is a thin wrapper over that same REST API.
Local development
npm install
npm run dev # runs src/index.ts directly via tsx
npm run build # compiles to dist/
