Ask for the post, not just the schedule

Claude Code asks, Pylot makes it: captions in your brand voice, images in your colours with your logo, then a draft or a scheduled post in your calendar.

“We just shipped dark mode. Write an X post and a LinkedIn post announcing it, make one brand image for both, and schedule them for tomorrow at 10am.”

Questions

Pylot for Claude Code, answered

How do I add Pylot to Claude Code?

Run claude mcp add with the HTTP transport, Pylot's MCP URL and your API key as an Authorization header. Then run /mcp inside Claude Code to see that the pylot server is connected.

Will the posts sound like my business?

Yes. generate_captions writes in the brand voice Pylot learned from your website, and generate_image applies your colours, logo and style automatically. Your agent asks for the post; Pylot makes it on-brand.

Can Claude Code publish without asking me?

Not by accident. create_post always makes a draft unless you give it a time, so posts land in your Pylot calendar first. Going live right away needs publish_post with confirm set to true, and that tool is marked destructive so the client can ask you before it runs.

What does it cost?

Captions are free. Each generated image uses 1 credit from your plan and is refunded if generation fails. Drafting, scheduling and publishing are free. The key uses the same plan, limits and credit balance as your dashboard.
