Draft a post in Postify
Turn the user's idea into a platform-ready draft saved in Postify. The user reviews it in the Postify composer before anything is scheduled or published.
Connecting and calling the tools
Every tool in this skill comes from the postify MCP server, the Postify connector, and is written here as postify:<tool>.
- Tools listed by name: call them directly, for example
postify:list_posts. - Only
postify:search_toolsandpostify:execute_typescriptlisted (Code Mode, the default): callpostify:search_toolsfirst, then call each tool insidepostify:execute_typescriptasexternal_<tool>(for exampleexternal_list_posts); the program mustreturnits result. Scopes, confirmations and gates are identical on both surfaces. - "Tool not found": switch to the Code Mode route instead of retrying the direct call. If
postify:search_toolsdoes not return the tool either, its OAuth scope was not granted; the user reconnects Postify and approves that scope. - No
postifytools at all: Postify is not connected yet. Install the Postify power, which adds the server; it signs in with OAuth on first use.
Tools you will use
postify:list_channels: find the channel to target and its platform.postify:search_media_library: find an image or video the user already uploaded, when the post needs media.postify:suggest_optimal_time: up to three suggested posting times per platform, computed from this workspace's own publish history.postify:create_draft: save the post with statusdraft. Returns the new post id.
Workflow
- Call
postify:list_channels. If the user named a platform with more than one connected account, ask which one. - Write the copy for that platform:
- X: under 280 characters, one idea, no hashtag pile.
- LinkedIn: hook in the first line, short paragraphs, up to three hashtags at the end.
- Instagram, TikTok: caption first, hashtags on their own line, mention that media is required.
- Facebook: conversational, a question or call to action at the end.
- If media is wanted, call
postify:search_media_librarywith two or three keywords and offer the matches by name. Do not invent media ids. - Show the draft to the user and ask for changes once.
- Call
postify:create_draftwith the final text, the channel id, and the media id if chosen. Report the post id and that it is saved as a draft. - Offer a time: call
postify:suggest_optimal_timefor the platform and present the suggestions. Scheduling itself happens in the Postify composer or through themanaging-content-calendarskill's reschedule step.
Rules
- Never call
postify:publish_now. Drafting is the whole job of this skill. - Do not fabricate links, statistics, or product claims. Ask for the URL when the post needs one.
- Keep the user's voice. If they pasted earlier posts, match their tone and length.
