Claude Desktop is Anthropic’s desktop application for chatting with Claude. You can connect it to TryPost’s MCP server to manage your social media scheduling through conversation.

​
Prerequisites

​
Setup

1

Open the Connectors settings

In Claude Desktop, go to Settings → Connectors and click Add custom connector.
2

Add the TryPost server URL

Paste the server URL:
Leave the Advanced settings (Client ID / Client Secret) empty — TryPost supports Dynamic Client Registration, so Claude Desktop registers itself automatically.
3

Sign in through your browser

Claude Desktop opens a browser window to TryPost asking you to sign in and authorize. Click Allow and return to Claude Desktop — the connector flips to Connected.
4

Verify the connection

Start a new conversation and ask Claude to interact with your TryPost account:
Claude will use the TryPost tools to fetch your posts.
Claude Desktop’s connector runs from Anthropic’s cloud, not from your machine, so the MCP server has to be reachable over the public internet. The hosted endpoint https://app.trypost.it/mcp/trypost is. Self-hosted instances must be exposed publicly (or use a tunnel) for Claude Desktop to reach them.
