YOUR ASSISTANT, IN YOUR WORKFLOW

AI assistant integration

Plan, draft and approve posts with an assistant you already use. Connect it in a minute, choose exactly what it may do, and keep the final say.

Social Studio works with Claude, ChatGPT and other assistants that support MCP, the open standard assistants use to work with apps. You describe the task; the assistant reads your brands, prepares drafts, and records your approval of the exact version you confirm. Publishing happens in Social Studio, where you review it.

How it works

  1. You ask.
    Name the brand and the post you want.
  2. Your assistant prepares it.
    It reads your brand, media and plan, then saves an unreviewed draft.
  3. You review.
    Check the exact caption, media and destinations, in chat or in Social Studio.
  4. You approve and publish.
    Your assistant can record your approval; you publish from Social Studio.

Connect your assistant

No download needed. Your assistant connects to this address and asks you to sign in to Social Studio and approve access:

https://socialstudio.tools/mcp

Claude

On claude.ai or the Claude apps, open Settings → Connectors, choose Add custom connector, paste the address and select Connect.

ChatGPT

Where your plan offers custom connectors, open Settings → Apps & Connectors, add a connector with the address above, then connect and approve.

Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code

Add it as a remote (HTTP) MCP server. In Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http social-studio https://socialstudio.tools/mcp

  1. Sign in and choose access. Social Studio opens in your browser. Sign in as a workspace owner, pick the workspace and choose Read only, Read and edit drafts or Drafts and approvals.
  2. Return to your assistant. Ask: Use Social Studio to list my brands and explain what my current access allows. Do not change anything.
  3. Disconnect anytime. The connection appears in Agent access in Social Studio, where you can revoke it. Access renews automatically for up to 30 days, then asks you to approve again.

Menu names vary between assistant versions and plans.

Choose the right access

Access covers all brands in the selected workspace, not just the brand currently on screen. Name the brand in each request. Each workspace’s brands and agent keys share its plan allowance.

Read only

Inspect workspace content, media metadata, integration information and available analytics. Cannot upload media, edit drafts or record approvals.

Read and edit drafts

Includes reading, plus creating drafts and saving new versions. Cannot approve a post or publish it.

Drafts and approvals

Includes draft access, requesting reviews, commenting and recording your approval of an exact version you confirm in chat. Editing a version afterwards removes the approval.

Connections and keys last up to 30 days. Revoke them in Agent access to stop further use immediately.

Publishing, connecting social accounts, uploading media, and managing billing and teams remain actions you take in Social Studio.

Content your assistant reads is available to the AI service you choose, whose data policies also apply. Agent access is included on every plan, and each assistant request counts toward your plan’s agent/API allowance.

Prompts you can use

These are example requests and expected behavior, not records of completed work. Replace the sample brand and filenames with your own.

READ ONLY

Find work that needs review

Use Social Studio to show drafts that need review for Northside Coffee. Summarize the caption and planned destinations without changing anything.

Expected result: A summary of matching saved drafts, with missing details called out.

READ AND EDIT DRAFTS

Save a new idea

Create a Facebook text draft for Northside Coffee announcing Saturday’s tasting, 10 am to noon. Keep the caption friendly and under 60 words. Save it for review.

Expected result: A saved draft and its version for you to inspect. Nothing is published.

READ AND EDIT DRAFTS

Prepare your media

For Northside Coffee, make a carousel draft from the three storefront photos in my library, storefront first. Show me the saved version.

Expected result: A draft with library media attached in that order. The first image is the cover. A draft format does not guarantee live publishing support.

DRAFTS AND APPROVALS

Record your decision

I approve version 3 of the Saturday tasting post you just showed me, with that caption and media order. Record my approval.

Expected result: Approval is recorded only if that exact version is still current. You then publish it from Social Studio.

Local plugin (advanced)

The original private-alpha plugin runs on your own computer with an access key you create in Agent access. It adds uploading local files you authorize. Most people should use the connection above instead.

Codex installation

From a clone of the Social Studio repository run codex plugin marketplace add . then codex plugin add social-studio@social-studio-alpha. Install dependencies with python -m pip install -r requirements.txt in the plugin directory, then run python tools/configure_plugin.py to store your app address (https://socialstudio.tools) and key privately.

Claude Code installation

Run /plugin marketplace add /absolute/path/to/social-studio, then /plugin install social-studio@social-studio-alpha, and configure the address and key privately as above.

Claude Desktop extension

In Settings, open Extensions, then Advanced settings and Install Extension. Select the supplied .mcpb file and enter your Python executable, Social Studio address and agent key.

Never paste an access key into a chat. Keep credentials out of source control and shared configuration.

When something needs attention

The assistant cannot connect
Check the address is exactly https://socialstudio.tools/mcp, then connect again and approve access. Only workspace owners can connect an assistant.
The assistant says access expired
Reconnect Social Studio in your assistant’s settings. Connections renew for up to 30 days, and changing your password disconnects them.
The assistant can read but cannot save or approve
Reconnect and choose a higher access level. Draft editing and approval require different permissions.
A draft changed during review
Ask the assistant to read the latest version and show it again before making changes or recording approval.
The request allowance is exhausted
Check Plans & billing. Usage is shared across brands and keys in your workspace.
Analytics are missing
Unavailable metrics are not zero. Sample data must be labeled, and cached channel totals are not live daily analytics.

If an action times out, ask the assistant to check whether it completed before retrying. For help connecting, open Support chat in your workspace.

Contact Social Studio support

Social Studio is operated by Alexander Dangler. For help signing in, connecting an assistant, using drafts and approvals, or managing your subscription, email Stonefletcherofficial@gmail.com. You can also use Support chat inside your signed-in workspace.

Include the assistant you use, what you were trying to do, and the error message. Do not send passwords, access tokens, recovery codes or identity documents. For account and workspace deletion, follow the data-deletion instructions.

Start with one post.

Connect your assistant, choose a brand, and review the result together.
