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 TikTok integration, uploads your video, applies privacy and interaction settings, and schedules the post.

Claude Code

> Post my demo video to TikTok as public
  with duets enabled, schedule for tomorrow

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

TikTok + Other Platforms

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

Example

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

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

What can you ask Paperclip to do on TikTok?

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

Public direct post

Ask Paperclip

> Post clip-01.mp4 to TikTok, public, allow
  comments and duets but no stitches,
  schedule for 7pm tonight

Paperclip: privacy_level: PUBLIC_TO_EVERYONE, duet: true,
  stitch: false. Scheduled for 7:00 PM.

Draft for review

Ask Paperclip

> Upload teaser.mp4 to my TikTok drafts so I can
  add the sound and caption in the app

Paperclip: content_posting_method: UPLOAD. Sent to
  your TikTok drafts.

Branded content

Ask Paperclip

> Post the sponsor clip, mark it as branded
  content, and label it as made with AI

Paperclip: brand_content_toggle: true,
  video_made_with_ai: true. Ready to schedule.

What TikTok rules should the agent follow?

TikTok 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.

✓privacy_level is required: PUBLIC_TO_EVERYONE, MUTUAL_FOLLOW_FRIENDS, FOLLOWER_OF_CREATOR, or SELF_ONLY.
✓duet, stitch, and comment are required booleans. If you do not state them, the agent should confirm before posting.
✓content_posting_method DIRECT_POST publishes at the scheduled time; UPLOAD sends the video to your TikTok drafts for finishing in the app.
✓Titles are limited to 90 characters. Set brand_content_toggle or brand_organic_toggle for sponsored or own-brand promotion, and video_made_with_ai for AI-generated footage.

Paperclip and TikTok: frequently asked questions

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

How do I post to TikTok from Paperclip?

Install the Postiz skill in your agent's environment with npx skills add gitroomhq/postiz-agent, set POSTIZ_API_KEY, and connect your TikTok account in Postiz. Then assign a task like "post clip.mp4 to TikTok tonight at 7pm, public" and the agent uploads and schedules it with the required settings.

What TikTok settings does a Paperclip agent have to set?

TikTok requires privacy_level, duet, stitch, comment, autoAddMusic, brand_content_toggle, brand_organic_toggle, and content_posting_method on every post. The agent fills them from your request and should ask when something is missing, since a video posted with the wrong privacy level is public immediately.

Can Paperclip send TikTok videos to drafts instead of posting?

Yes. Ask for a draft and the agent sets content_posting_method to UPLOAD. The video lands in your TikTok inbox as a draft, so you can add trending sounds, effects, or a caption in the app before publishing. DIRECT_POST publishes at the scheduled time.

Does Paperclip mark AI-generated TikTok videos?

It can. Ask the agent to label the video as made with AI and it sets video_made_with_ai to true, which adds TikTok's AI-generated content label. If an AI agent in your Paperclip org produced the footage, include this in the task to stay within TikTok's disclosure rules.

Can I run a daily TikTok posting pipeline in Paperclip?

Yes. A typical Paperclip setup is a video agent that cuts clips, a reviewer that checks the caption and disclosures, and a publisher that schedules through Postiz. Heartbeats wake the agents daily, and Paperclip's approval gates keep a person in the loop before anything goes live.
