What This Skill Does

The postproxy skill serves as a powerful interface for the PostProxy API, enabling your OpenClaw agent to programmatically manage social media content across a diverse ecosystem of platforms. By integrating directly with Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube, X (Twitter), and Threads, this skill allows for the seamless creation, scheduling, drafting, and deletion of posts. It supports both text-based updates and media-rich content, including image and video uploads. With capabilities ranging from immediate publishing to deferred scheduling and granular platform-specific configuration, it transforms your agent into a comprehensive social media management powerhouse.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your environment, use the OpenClaw CLI tool. Run the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/danbaranov/postproxy After installation, ensure that you have obtained your unique API credentials from the PostProxy dashboard (https://app.postproxy.dev/api_keys) and configured the POSTPROXY_API_KEY environment variable on your machine. The agent will reference this key for all authenticated requests to the base API URL.

Use Cases

This skill is ideal for digital marketers, content creators, and social media managers who need to automate repetitive workflows. Use it to maintain a consistent posting cadence by scheduling content across multiple platforms simultaneously, managing draft states before final approval, or curating high-quality media content uploads. For example, a content creator can use the agent to push a single video asset to YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram with platform-specific formatting and metadata configured via the platforms object. It also serves teams that need to purge or update scheduled content dynamically.

Example Prompts

1. "Schedule a promotional post for next Monday at 9:00 AM on Twitter and LinkedIn with the text 'Check out our latest AI tools!' and attach the image at /assets/promo.jpg."
2. "List all my currently scheduled social media posts and delete the one titled 'Old Promo Draft'."
3. "Create a draft post for Instagram with the caption 'New release coming soon' and set the format to 'reel' with the first comment set to 'Link in bio'."

Tips & Limitations

When using the postproxy skill, always verify your platform-specific parameters; for instance, YouTube requires a title and privacy status to function correctly. The skill relies on active connectivity to the PostProxy API, so ensure your network permits traffic to api.postproxy.dev. For file uploads, ensure your file paths are accessible to the agent. While the skill supports bulk posting, be mindful of platform-specific rate limits and content policies to avoid account suspensions. Always audit draft posts before using the publish command to ensure formatting accuracy.
