How It Works

You describe what you want in plain language and Claude Code handles the Postiz calls for you. Here is how a typical conversation goes.

1

Find Your Discord Integration

Ask Claude Code whether your Discord account is connected. It also checks which options the platform supports.

Example conversation

> Is my Discord account connected to Postiz?

Claude Code: Yes — your Discord account is connected
  and ready. Want me to post something?
2

Get Your Channel ID

Find the Discord channel ID where you want to post. In Discord, enable Developer Mode, then right-click the channel and copy its ID.

Example conversation

> Draft a Discord post about our new
  feature launch

Claude Code: Here's a draft for Discord:
  "We just shipped something big..."
  Want me to add media and schedule it?
3

Create Your Message

Schedule a Discord message with your content, optional media attachments, and the target channel ID.

Example conversation

> Yes — add screenshot.png and schedule
  it for tomorrow at 9am

Claude Code: Done! Scheduled on Discord for
  tomorrow at 9:00 AM.

What is Claude Code?

Claude Code is Anthropic's agentic coding tool that lives in your terminal. It handles software engineering tasks — writing features, fixing bugs, and answering questions about your codebase — and it can run shell commands and MCP tools like Postiz.

💻

Terminal & IDE Native

Claude Code runs in your terminal, with extensions for VS Code and JetBrains. You type what you want in plain English and it handles Postiz for you.

🔧

Agentic Execution

Claude Code plans and works through multi-step tasks on its own — discovering channels, uploading media, and scheduling posts — and asks for permission before it acts.

Parallel Tasks

Run several Claude Code sessions side by side, or spawn subagents in one. Schedule posts to different platforms while it handles other coding work.

How Postiz Works with Claude Code

Claude Code discovers Postiz through the Postiz skill or the Postiz MCP server. It reads the SKILL.md (or the MCP tool list) to learn what it can do, then chains calls together for social media workflows.

  • Install the Postiz skill, or add the Postiz MCP server with claude mcp add
  • Claude Code reads the SKILL.md and learns all Postiz commands
  • POSTIZ_API_KEY must be set in environment
  • Claude Code asks for permission before running commands
  • Works alongside your coding tasks in parallel

Install Postiz

# Option A: add the Postiz MCP server
claude mcp add --transport http postiz https://mcp.postiz.com/mcp-oauth-dynamic

# Option B: install the Postiz skill
npx skills add gitroomhq/postiz-agent
export POSTIZ_API_KEY=your_api_key

# Then just ask
claude "list my social media integrations"

Discord Messaging with Claude Code

Tell Claude Code what to post from your terminal or IDE — it discovers your integrations via Postiz and handles the entire publishing workflow.

💻

Just Ask Claude Code

Terminal and IDE integration

Tell Claude Code what to post from your terminal or IDE — it discovers your integrations via Postiz and handles the entire publishing workflow.

Claude Code CLI

$ claude "Post to Discord about our
  new feature launch, schedule for
  tomorrow at 9am"

Claude Code: I'll handle that.
  Found your Discord integration.
  Composing and scheduling the post.

  Done! Your post is scheduled.
  Post ID: abc-123
💻

Parallel Tasks

Multiple tasks at once

Claude Code runs headless with claude -p, so several tasks can run in parallel. Schedule posts to different platforms while it works on other coding tasks.

Claude Code Parallel Tasks

# Run multiple posting tasks in parallel
$ claude -p "Schedule a post about our
  launch to X for tomorrow 9am" &

$ claude -p "Write a LinkedIn article
  about our new feature and schedule
  for tomorrow noon" &

$ claude -p "Fix the bug in auth.ts"

# All three tasks run simultaneously

Why Claude Code + Postiz for Discord

Claude Code's autonomous execution makes Postiz a natural fit. The agent reads the SKILL.md to understand every available command, then autonomously chains them together for Discord workflows.

  • Runs in your terminal or IDE — just type what you want
  • Permission-based execution — you stay in control
  • Parallel task support — post while coding
  • Reads SKILL.md for automatic command discovery
  • Cross-post to Discord + other platforms in a single session
  • Powered by Claude — Anthropic's most capable models

Also Works with Claude Cowork

Postiz works with any AI agent that can run commands or call MCP tools — you ask, the agent does the work. That includes Claude Cowork, Anthropic's desktop agent — no terminal needed.

Claude Cowork

by Anthropic

Claude Cowork reads the Postiz skill so it knows what it can do, then autonomously discovers your Discord integration, identifies the right channel, and sends your message with any attachments.

Claude Cowork

> Send an announcement to our Discord
  #releases channel that v2.0 is live,
  attach the changelog screenshot

Claude Cowork: Done! Scheduled on Discord for
  tomorrow at 9:00 AM.

Discord + Other Platforms

Schedule the same announcement to Discord and other platforms in a single command. Each platform gets its own settings.

Example

> What's scheduled on Discord this week?

Claude Code: 6 posts on Discord: the announcement tomorrow
  at 9:00 AM and daily tips Mon-Fri at 10:00 AM.
  Want me to move or cancel any of them?
