What This Skill Does

Postiz is a powerful social media automation skill designed to integrate with OpenClaw agents, enabling seamless scheduling and management of content across 28+ different platforms. Whether you need to manage your personal brand, run marketing campaigns, or distribute company updates, Postiz allows your AI agent to programmatically post to X, LinkedIn, Reddit, Instagram, Facebook, Threads, YouTube, TikTok, and many more. By interacting with the Postiz public API, the skill handles everything from content scheduling and media uploads to post status monitoring, ensuring your social presence remains active without manual intervention.

Installation

To install this skill, use the following OpenClaw command: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/bobdevibecoder/bobagent-postiz

After installation, you must configure your environment to allow the agent to authenticate with the Postiz platform:

1. Obtain your API key from platform.postiz.com/settings.
2. Navigate to 'Settings' and select 'Reveal' to view your key.
3. Add this key to your environment configuration: export POSTIZ_API_KEY="your-api-key".

Use Cases

• Automated Content Distribution: Sync blog posts or technical updates automatically across LinkedIn, Dev.to, Hashnode, and X simultaneously.
• Social Media Management: Have your AI agent draft and queue weekly content calendars based on recent market trends or your own notes.
• Multi-Platform Engagement: Use the agent to keep niche communities on platforms like Mastodon, Lemmy, or Discord updated with fresh content.
• Content Repurposing: Feed the agent an image or article URL, and have it craft unique captions for various platforms before scheduling them.

Example Prompts

1. "Schedule a post to my LinkedIn page and X account for tomorrow at 10 AM with the content: 'Check out our new AI documentation update! 🚀'"
2. "Get the next available time slots for all my integrated social channels so I can plan my content calendar for the week."
3. "Upload this image from https://example.com/logo.png and create a scheduled post on my Instagram and Threads for Friday at 2 PM."

Tips & Limitations

• Check Channel Requirements: Different platforms have unique posting constraints. Always refer to the Postiz documentation when defining settings for specific providers.
• Media Handling: When uploading files, ensure they are accessible via valid URLs or local paths supported by the agent environment.
• Rate Limiting: Be mindful that excessive rapid-fire API calls to individual social platforms may trigger rate limits; it is recommended to space out your scheduling tasks.
