Also Works with Claude Code

Postiz works with any AI agent that can run commands or call MCP tools — you ask, the agent does the work. That includes Anthropic's Claude Code.

Claude Code

by Anthropic

Claude reads the Postiz skill so it knows what it can do, then autonomously discovers your LinkedIn integration, uploads your images, creates a carousel if needed, and schedules the post.

Claude Code

> Create a LinkedIn carousel from my
  slide deck images, schedule for
  tomorrow morning

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

LinkedIn + Other Platforms

Schedule the same content to LinkedIn and other platforms in a single request. Each platform gets its own settings.

Example

> Post "Excited to announce our new feature!" to
  LinkedIn and X tomorrow at 9am, then schedule
  a daily tip on LinkedIn every weekday at 10am

Paperclip: Done! Scheduled:
  - LinkedIn + LinkedIn: tomorrow 9:00 AM
  - Daily tips on LinkedIn: Mon-Fri 10:00 AM

What can you ask Paperclip to do on LinkedIn?

You assign a task in plain language and the agent translates it into Postiz calls with the right LinkedIn settings. These are prompts people actually give a Paperclip agent for LinkedIn.

Company page update

Ask Paperclip

> Post our Q3 product recap to the company
  LinkedIn page Thursday at 8am with recap.png

Paperclip: Using the linkedin-page channel. Scheduled
  for Thu 8:00 AM with recap.png attached.

Image carousel

Ask Paperclip

> Make a LinkedIn carousel from the 6 slides in
  ./deck and call it "Hiring Playbook"

Paperclip: post_as_images_carousel: true,
  carousel_name: Hiring Playbook. Ready to schedule.

Repurpose a blog post

Ask Paperclip

> Rewrite blog/launch.md as a LinkedIn post under
  1,500 characters and schedule for Monday 9am

Paperclip: Drafted 1,380 characters. Scheduled on
  LinkedIn for Mon 9:00 AM.

What LinkedIn rules should the agent follow?

LinkedIn rejects posts that break its limits, so the agent needs these constraints up front. Put them in the task or in your Paperclip agent's instructions.

✓LinkedIn posts accept up to 3,000 characters. Ask the agent to keep the hook in the first two lines, since LinkedIn truncates the preview.
✓Personal profiles use __type linkedin; company pages use linkedin-page. Tell Paperclip which one you mean, or it will ask.
✓A carousel needs two or more images and post_as_images_carousel set to true. carousel_name is the label shown in LinkedIn.
✓You must be an admin of a company page to connect it in Postiz before any agent can post there.

Paperclip and LinkedIn: frequently asked questions

Short answers to the questions teams ask before letting a Paperclip agent post to LinkedIn through Postiz.

How do I post to LinkedIn from Paperclip?

Install the Postiz skill in your Paperclip agent's environment with npx skills add gitroomhq/postiz-agent, set POSTIZ_API_KEY, and connect your LinkedIn profile or company page in Postiz. Then give the agent a task like "post this update to LinkedIn Monday at 9am" and it schedules it via the Postiz CLI.

Can Paperclip post to a LinkedIn company page?

Yes. Connect the company page in Postiz (you need admin rights on the page) and it appears as a linkedin-page channel. Say "post to the company page" in the task and the agent targets that channel instead of your personal profile. You can post to both in one request.

How do I create a LinkedIn carousel with a Paperclip agent?

Give the agent several images and ask for a carousel. It uploads each image through Postiz, sets post_as_images_carousel to true, and names the carousel with carousel_name. LinkedIn renders the images as a swipeable document, which works well for slide decks and step-by-step guides.

What is the LinkedIn character limit when posting through Postiz?

LinkedIn allows up to 3,000 characters in a post, and Postiz enforces that when your agent submits. Ask Paperclip to keep the opening line strong, because LinkedIn shows only the first few lines before the "see more" cut. Longer material belongs in a carousel or a linked article.

Can a Paperclip agent run a weekly LinkedIn routine?

Yes. Paperclip's heartbeat scheduling wakes the agent on a cadence, and Postiz handles exact publishing times. A common setup is a writer agent that drafts Monday, a reviewer that approves, and a publisher that schedules through Postiz, all visible in the Paperclip dashboard.
