Schedule Social Media Posts with Perplexity Computer
- Add Postiz as an MCP connector in Perplexity, OAuth only
- Describe the post or campaign in plain language
- Computer schedules posts across 30+ platforms
Postiz is the agentic social media scheduling platform that Perplexity Computer drives through an MCP connector. Please make sure there is always a human in the loop. Last updated: September 2026.
How to connect Postiz to Perplexity Computer
Setup is a one-time job: add Postiz as a custom MCP connector in Perplexity settings (OAuth, no API key), or install the Postiz CLI skill in Computer's sandbox. After that, every Computer task can use Postiz.
Add the Postiz connector
Add Postiz as a custom remote connector in Perplexity settings and sign in with your Postiz account. Every Computer task can then call the Postiz tools.
# Perplexity > Settings > Connectors > + Custom connector > Remote
Name: Postiz
MCP server URL: https://mcp.postiz.com/mcp-oauth-dynamic
Authentication: OAuth (sign in with your Postiz account)Prefer the CLI? Run npx skills add gitroomhq/postiz-agent in Computer's sandbox and set POSTIZ_API_KEY. The same endpoint powers the Postiz MCP server for other agents, and the generic AI agent guide covers the CLI in depth.
Ask Computer to post for you
Describe the post or campaign. Computer breaks it into subtasks, calls the Postiz tools, and Postiz publishes at the time you set.
Post "Hello from Postiz!" to X and LinkedIn, schedule it for tomorrow at 9am.
Done! I listed your channels, found X and LinkedIn, and scheduled the post on both for tomorrow at 9:00 AM. Want me to attach an image?

MCP connector or CLI skill: which should you use?
The MCP connector is the right choice for most people. Both paths end with Perplexity Computer calling Postiz; they differ in where the tools run and how you authenticate.
| Aspect | Postiz MCP connector | Postiz CLI skill |
|---|---|---|
| How Computer reaches Postiz | Custom remote connector in Perplexity, pointed at the hosted Postiz MCP server | Postiz CLI skill installed in Computer's sandbox (npx skills add gitroomhq/postiz-agent) |
| Authentication | OAuth: sign in with your Postiz account, no API key to copy | POSTIZ_API_KEY environment variable from your Postiz settings |
| Tools available | Full Postiz toolset: channels, posts, scheduling, media upload, image and video generation, clipping | CLI commands: integrations, posts, upload, analytics |
| Also usable in | Regular Perplexity conversations and Computer in Slack, once added in Settings | Any agent that can run shell commands |
| Best for | Most people: one-time setup, works in every Computer task | Developers who already use the Postiz CLI in scripts |

text post titled "New Tutorial". Then schedule a
daily tip on X and LinkedIn for the rest of the week.
Perplexity Computer: Done! Here's what I scheduled:
- X, LinkedIn, Facebook: tomorrow 9:00 AM (banner.png)
- Reddit r/programming: tomorrow 9:00 AM, "New Tutorial"
- Daily tips: Mon-Fri 9:00 AM on X and LinkedInWhat is Perplexity Computer?
Perplexity Computer is Perplexity's agentic workspace: you give it a goal, it breaks the goal into subtasks, orchestrates 20+ AI models, uses connectors, skills, and Scheduled Tasks, and delivers a finished result, from code to marketing campaigns to social media content. It is available on Perplexity Pro and Max plans.
| Perplexity product | What it is | Can it post through Postiz? |
|---|---|---|
| Perplexity Computer | Agentic workspace that breaks a goal into subtasks, orchestrates 20+ models, and uses connectors and Scheduled Tasks | Yes. Calls Postiz through the MCP connector or the CLI skill to schedule and publish |
| Perplexity search | The answer engine: asks questions, cites sources, and can use connectors in a conversation | Partly. Connectors work in conversations, but multi-step scheduling and recurring campaigns belong in Computer |
| Comet | Perplexity's browser with a built-in assistant that reads and acts on web pages | Not the surface Postiz targets. Postiz connects to Perplexity over MCP, not through the browser |
Task Decomposition
Perplexity Computer breaks complex social media campaigns into individual subtasks — content creation, image generation, scheduling, and cross-posting — then executes each one.
Multi-Model
Spawns sub-agents across 20+ different AI models, selecting the best model for each subtask — writing, image analysis, scheduling optimization, and more.
End-to-End Delivery
From ideation to publishing, Perplexity Computer handles the entire workflow. Give it a goal and it delivers finished, published social media content.
How Postiz Works with Perplexity Computer
Perplexity Computer reaches Postiz through a connector you add once in Perplexity settings. From then on, it decomposes your social media goals into subtasks and spawns sub-agents that call the Postiz tools directly.
- Add the Postiz MCP connector in Perplexity (OAuth), or install the Postiz CLI skill
- Every Computer task can call the Postiz tools once the connector is added
- Tasks are decomposed and distributed across sub-agents
- Best model is selected for each subtask automatically
- End-to-end verification ensures posts are published correctly
# Perplexity > Settings > Connectors
# + Custom connector > Remote
Name: Postiz
MCP server URL: https://mcp.postiz.com/mcp-oauth-dynamic
Authentication: OAuth
# Or, the CLI skill:
npx skills add gitroomhq/postiz-agent
export POSTIZ_API_KEY=your_api_keyPost With Perplexity Computer
Tell Perplexity Computer your campaign goal — it decomposes it into subtasks, spawns sub-agents for each step, and delivers published posts across all your platforms.
Campaign Decomposition
Goal to subtasks automatically
Tell Perplexity Computer your campaign goal. It decomposes the work into subtasks, assigns each to the best AI model, and delivers finished posts across all your platforms.
You: Run a week-long product launch
campaign across Twitter, LinkedIn,
and Reddit with daily posts, each
with unique angles and visuals.
Perplexity Computer: Decomposing task...

- Fri: Launch CTA (3 platforms)Recurring Campaigns
Ongoing multi-model automation
Perplexity Computer Scheduled Tasks run in Perplexity's cloud on a cadence you confirm, up to once per hour. Each cycle is decomposed into subtasks, content is generated with the best model, and posts are scheduled via Postiz.
Tell Perplexity Computer:
"Every Monday, research trending topics
in our industry, generate 5 social
media posts with unique angles, create
matching visuals, and schedule them
across all platforms for the week."
Perplexity Computer will decompose:
1. Research trends (search model)
2. Generate copy (writing model)
3. Create visuals (image model)
4. Schedule via Postiz (tool agent)
5. Verify delivery (validation agent)Why Perplexity Computer + Postiz

What does it cost, and is it secure?
Pricing: two subscriptions, one free path
Perplexity Computer is included with Perplexity Pro and Max; Max adds monthly Computer credits and higher spend limits. Postiz has a 7-day free trial, and paid plans start at $29 per month.
Postiz plan and channel limits are on the Postiz pricing page.
Security: OAuth, scoped access, human in the loop
The MCP connector signs in with your own Postiz account over OAuth, so Computer can only act on channels you connected, and you can revoke access from Perplexity or Postiz at any time. No API key is pasted anywhere.
Ask Computer to schedule or draft rather than publish immediately, and review what it queues. The Postiz dashboard shows every scheduled post.

Most problems come down to the connector not being authorized or the channel not existing in Postiz. Check these first.
Computer says it has no Postiz tools
