Claude Code

Claude Code is Anthropic’s CLI tool for working with Claude directly in your terminal. You can connect it to TryPost’s MCP server to manage your social media scheduling with natural language.

Prerequisites

Claude Code installed (install guide)
A TryPost Cloud account with an active subscription (plans and billing)

Setup

Add the TryPost MCP server

Run the following command in your terminal:

claude mcp add --transport http trypost https://app.trypost.it/mcp/trypost

This adds the server for the current project, for you only (local scope). Use --scope project to share it through .mcp.json, or --scope user for every project.

Start Claude Code and trigger the first TryPost call:

claude

List all my scheduled posts

Claude Code opens a browser window asking you to sign in to TryPost and authorize the connection. Sign in, pick the Workspace this connection may use and click Authorize. Claude Code stores the OAuth token and refreshes it automatically from then on. To use another workspace, connect again and pick it.

Manual configuration

If you prefer to edit the config file directly, this is what claude mcp add --scope project writes to .mcp.json (no Authorization header — OAuth is discovered from the URL):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "trypost": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://app.trypost.it/mcp/trypost"
    }
  }
}

Drop it in .mcp.json for project scope. With --scope user the same block goes under mcpServers in ~/.claude.json.
