Typefully MCP for Content Scheduling

Draft, schedule, and cross-post using the Typefully MCP server


What Typefully MCP Does

Typefully is a content scheduling platform for X and LinkedIn. The Typefully MCP server connects it directly into your Cursor IDE, meaning you can draft, schedule, and manage posts without leaving your code editor. This is the bridge between writing content in markdown files and actually publishing it to social platforms. The MCP exposes tools for creating drafts, scheduling posts at specific times, managing your content queue, and cross-posting between X and LinkedIn. Combined with the final-copy skill, you can go from markdown draft to scheduled post in a single command sequence.
PATTERN

Core Workflow

The typical flow: (1) Write the post as a markdown file in content/drafts/. (2) Run the final-copy skill to normalize voice and extract platform-ready text. (3) Use Typefully MCP to create a draft on the platform. (4) Optionally schedule it for a specific time. (5) The post publishes automatically. For threads on X: Typefully handles thread formatting natively. You write each tweet separated by a delimiter, and the MCP pushes the full thread as a single draft. No manual splitting, no copy-paste into the X interface tweet by tweet. For cross-posting: draft once, publish to both X and LinkedIn with platform-appropriate formatting. Typefully handles the format differences between platforms.
PATTERN

Scheduling Patterns

Content scheduling follows a rhythm, not a fixed calendar. LinkedIn posts perform best Tuesday through Thursday, mornings EST. X posts are more flexible but evenings tend to perform well for builder audiences. The pattern: batch-write content during deep work sessions, schedule for distribution across the week. A single writing session can produce 3-5 posts that get scheduled across a week. This separates creation from distribution — you write when you are in flow state and publish when the audience is active. Typefully's queue feature lets you add posts to a queue without specific times. The queue distributes them according to your preset schedule. This is the lowest-friction approach for consistent posting.
PRO TIP

Integration with the Content OS

The real power is the integration loop: markdown drafts in the repo get version controlled. The final-copy skill normalizes voice and extracts clean text. Typefully MCP pushes to the scheduling platform. Published posts get tracked in the daily tracker. This means your entire content pipeline — from idea capture to published post — lives inside your IDE. You never need to open Typefully's web interface, never need to copy-paste between tools, never need to context-switch from your code editor. The content operating system handles end-to-end.
