How to schedule social posts from Cursor

Add tinyposter to Cursor and let your code editor schedule tweets, threads, and IG posts.

May 20, 2026

If you live in Cursor, you can post to social from your code editor. No tab switching. No copy-paste. Just ask Cursor.

Why this is useful

You ship a feature. You want to post about it. Instead of opening 5 tabs, you tell Cursor:

"Post a thread on X about the feature I just shipped, with the commit hash."

Cursor writes the thread, picks X, posts it. 90 seconds tops.

What you need

  • Cursor or any MCP-aware code editor
  • A tinyposter account (free 3 days)
  • One social account connected (X, Instagram, anything)

Step 1: Get your tinyposter token

Sign in. Go to Dashboard → Tokens. Make one. Copy it.

Step 2: Add the MCP server to Cursor

Open Cursor's MCP config. Add:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tinyposter": {
      "url": "https://tinyposter.app/api/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer tp_YOUR_TOKEN" }
    }
  }
}

Restart Cursor. The tinyposter tools are now available to your agent.

Step 3: Use it

In Cursor chat, try:

  • "Post a tweet about what we just shipped"
  • "Schedule a LinkedIn post for tomorrow morning about this PR"
  • "What's on my tinyposter calendar this week?"
  • "Cancel the post scheduled for 3pm"

Cursor reads your code context, writes the post, picks the right platform, sends it.

What tools tinyposter gives Cursor

  • post_now - publish right now
  • schedule_post - queue for later
  • list_accounts - see what is connected
  • list_posts - see what is scheduled
  • view_calendar - month view
  • cancel_post - remove a scheduled one
  • get_usage - posts used this month

Cursor picks the right tool based on what you ask.

Use it for changelogs

Tell Cursor to write a changelog post about the last 5 commits and schedule it for tomorrow. Cursor reads git log, drafts the post, queues it.
