Post to Social Media from Claude

Connect LazyRelay's MCP server to Claude Desktop or Claude Code and schedule, check, and verify posts without leaving the conversation.

What you can ask Claude

• "Schedule a post to Instagram and X for tomorrow at 9am announcing the new feature."
• "What's queued for this week?"
• "Did last Tuesday's LinkedIn post actually go live?"
• "Pull my analytics for the last 30 days, broken down by platform."
• "Any new comments on my posts I should reply to?"

The part most AI-agent schedulers skip

Almost every "post from your AI agent" integration stops at the API call — Claude asks for a post, the API says 200 OK, and that's treated as done. It isn't. Rate limits, silent moderation holds, and platform-side failures can all eat a "successful" request. LazyRelay's list_scheduled_posts tool returns real Proof-of-Publish status, so you can literally ask Claude to check whether a post actually went live, not just whether the request was accepted.

Setup — local (Claude Desktop or Claude Code)

1. In your LazyRelay dashboard, go to API Keys (top nav) and create a new key. Requires a paid plan — Starter and up. Copy it now, it's only shown once.
2. Add this to your MCP client's config file (for Claude Desktop, that's claude_desktop_config.json; Claude Code uses its own MCP config in the same shape):

   {
     "mcpServers": {
       "lazyrelay": {
         "command": "npx",
         "args": ["-y", "@lazyrelay/mcp-server"],
         "env": {
           "LAZYRELAY_API_KEY": "lzr_live_your_key_here"
         }
       }
     }
   }

3. Restart Claude. LazyRelay's tools should now show up when you ask it to use them.

Setup — hosted, nothing to install

Claude Desktop also supports remote connectors: in Settings, look for Connectors → Add connector → Remote and paste in https://lazyrelaylazyrelay-backend.onrender.com/mcp. You'll sign in with your LazyRelay account instead of using an API key — nothing to run locally.

Claude Code doesn't have that UI — use a url field in its MCP config instead of command/args:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lazyrelay": {
      "url": "https://lazyrelaylazyrelay-backend.onrender.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

All 6 tools are identical either way: list_connected_accounts, schedule_post, list_scheduled_posts, delete_scheduled_post, get_analytics_summary, and get_mentions. Full reference at lazyrelay.com/docs.
