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

  tomorrow morning

Claude: Done! Scheduled on LinkedIn for

What can you ask Perplexity Computer to do on LinkedIn?

You can ask Perplexity Computer for anything Postiz can do on LinkedIn: draft, schedule, publish, attach media, and set LinkedIn-specific options. These are prompts people actually type.

You say

> Turn these 5 slides into a LinkedIn carousel
  called "Q3 Lessons" and post it tomorrow at 9am

Computer uploads the five images, sets post_as_images_carousel to true with carousel_name Q3 Lessons, and schedules the carousel on your LinkedIn channel.

You say

> Post this product update to my personal LinkedIn
  and to the company page, same time Thursday 10am

Computer creates two Postiz posts, one on the linkedin channel and one on the linkedin-page channel, each adjusted to the account type.

You say

> Repurpose last week's blog post into a LinkedIn
  post under 1,500 characters with a question at the end

Computer summarizes the article, keeps the copy under LinkedIn's limit, ends with an engagement question, and offers to schedule it.

LinkedIn rules Perplexity Computer has to respect

LinkedIn enforces a few rules on every post. Postiz exposes them as settings, and Perplexity Computer applies them, but knowing them helps you phrase the request.

✓LinkedIn posts are limited to 3,000 characters; ask Computer to shorten long drafts rather than truncating them.
✓Personal profiles use the linkedin channel type and company pages use linkedin-page. Computer must pick the channel you mean.
✓A carousel needs two or more images and post_as_images_carousel set to true; a single image posts as a normal image post.
✓carousel_name is the display name LinkedIn shows for the carousel, so give it a real title, not a file name.
✓Media must be uploaded through Postiz first; Computer does this automatically when you mention a file.

Perplexity Computer and LinkedIn: frequently asked questions

How do I post to LinkedIn from Perplexity Computer?

Add Postiz as a custom remote connector in Perplexity settings with the MCP URL https://mcp.postiz.com/mcp-oauth-dynamic and OAuth, then connect your LinkedIn profile or company page inside Postiz. From then on, ask Perplexity Computer to draft, schedule, or publish a LinkedIn post and it calls Postiz to do it.

Can Perplexity Computer post to a LinkedIn company page?

Yes. Connect the company page as a linkedin-page channel in Postiz. When you ask Computer to post on the company page, it targets that channel; when you say my LinkedIn, it uses your personal linkedin channel. You can ask for both in one request and Computer creates two posts.

How does Perplexity Computer create a LinkedIn carousel?

Mention several images and the word carousel. Computer uploads each image through Postiz, sets post_as_images_carousel to true, gives the carousel a name with carousel_name, and schedules it. LinkedIn renders the images as a swipeable document. One image alone is posted as a regular image post.

Do I need a Postiz API key to publish LinkedIn posts this way?

Not with the MCP connector. Perplexity signs in to your Postiz account over OAuth, so Computer only sees channels you already connected. If you prefer the CLI skill (npx skills add gitroomhq/postiz-agent), that path reads POSTIZ_API_KEY from the environment in Computer's sandbox.

Which Perplexity plan do I need to post to LinkedIn with Computer?

Perplexity Computer is available on Perplexity Pro and Max plans; Max includes monthly Computer credits and higher spend limits. Custom MCP connectors are also a Pro, Max, and Enterprise feature. On the Postiz side, any plan with a connected LinkedIn channel works, and Postiz offers a 7-day free trial.
