Connector Custom MCP (Bring Your Own MCP)
URL https://mcp.upload-post.com/mcp
Auth OAuth 2.1
or
Header Authorization: ApiKey YOUR_API_KEY
(store it as a Bot secret) A few minutes from a new connector to your first post published by a Bot.
Grok Bot accepts any MCP server reachable over the public internet (grok.com/connectors). Add a custom MCP connector with the URL https://mcp.upload-post.com/mcp and sign in with OAuth, or store Authorization: ApiKey YOUR_API_KEY as a Bot secret.
Grok auto-discovers the Upload-Post tools. Paste the setup prompt below into your Bot chat so it reads the docs, sticks to real tools and asks before anything goes public.
Start with "List my Upload-Post profiles" to confirm the connection, then describe what to post, where and when. The Bot asks for approval before publishing.
You are connected to the Upload-Post MCP server
(https://mcp.upload-post.com/mcp). Follow these rules:
1. Read the Upload-Post MCP docs first:
https://docs.upload-post.com/guides/mcp-server-integration/
2. Only use tools the server actually exposes. Never invent tool names or parameters.
3. Confirm the connection with a read-only call: list my Upload-Post profiles and the accounts connected to each.
4. Before publishing, scheduling, replying or sending a DM, always show me the caption, the target accounts and the date and time (with timezone), and wait for my approval.
5. After publishing, check the upload status and report the result for each platform. Setup details, tool reference and auth options are in the MCP server docs. The server is open source: Upload-Post/upload-post-mcp.
Every capability maps to documented Upload-Post tools. The Bot picks the right one from your prompt.
Upload-Post returns structured results, so a Bot can plan, run and verify multi-step posting work on its own.
Upload videos, photos and text to TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook, X, Threads, Pinterest, Reddit, Bluesky and Google Business.
"Post this tomorrow at 6pm" becomes a scheduled post. Bots can also add posts to your queue and check upload status.
Ask which posts performed best this week and the Bot pulls the numbers from your connected accounts.
Read new comments, draft replies and handle direct messages, with your approval before anything is sent.
Stage media files and trim, convert or re-encode video with the FFmpeg tools before it goes out.
Grok Bot is the always-on AI teammate product from xAI and Cursor. You give each Bot a job and it works on its own cloud computer, pinging you only when it needs approval.
Every Bot works on a persistent cloud computer, so posting jobs keep running when your laptop is closed.
Turn any task into a schedule. The Bot drafts, schedules and reports on your social content without being asked again.
Bots ask for your approval before acting on outside systems, so you review each post before Upload-Post publishes it.
No. xAI has three products with similar names, and this page is about Grok Bot.

| Grok | xAI's chatbot on X and grok.com | In a chat window, while you type |
| Grok Bot | Always-on agents from xAI and Cursor, each with its own cloud computer | 24/7 in the cloud, with routines and approvals |
| Grok Build | xAI's coding agent and CLI | In your terminal, while you work |
Save any posting task as a routine and the Bot runs it on schedule from its cloud computer. With Upload-Post connected, a routine can pick up new clips, draft captions, schedule them across your accounts and report back, while you are offline.

Grok Bot is the always-on AI teammate product from xAI and Cursor. Each Bot works on its own persistent cloud computer, uses connectors, runs routines on a schedule and asks for your approval before acting on outside systems.
No. Grok is xAI's chatbot on X and grok.com. Grok Bot is a separate product from xAI and Cursor for handing multi-step work to always-on agents. This page is about connecting Upload-Post to Grok Bot.
Grok Build is xAI's coding agent and CLI that runs in your terminal while you work. Grok Bot runs Bots in the cloud that keep working after you close your laptop, which is what you want for scheduled social media work.
Add https://mcp.upload-post.com/mcp as a custom MCP connector (grok.com/connectors) and sign in with OAuth, or store Authorization: ApiKey YOUR_API_KEY as a Bot secret. Then paste the setup prompt from this page. An official Upload-Post plugin for the Cursor Marketplace, which is Grok Bot's plugin catalog, is in review; until it is listed, the custom connector is the way to go.
No. You connect each social account to Upload-Post once, and Upload-Post holds those connections. The Bot only holds OAuth access to your Upload-Post account or your Upload-Post API key as a Bot secret.
Yes. Save the task as a routine and the Bot runs it on schedule from its cloud computer. Posts scheduled through Upload-Post also go out at their set time on their own.
Any account you connect in Upload-Post: TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook, X, Threads, Pinterest, Reddit, Bluesky and Google Business.
The connector is free and the MCP server is open source. The Upload-Post free plan includes 10 uploads a month with no credit card; TikTok is not included on the free plan. Grok Bot is a separate product from xAI and Cursor with its own plans.
Check the connector URL is exactly https://mcp.upload-post.com/mcp. With OAuth, reconnect and approve access again. With an API key, make sure the Bot secret is the full header value ApiKey YOUR_API_KEY with a key from app.upload-post.com, API Keys. Then ask the Bot to list your Upload-Post profiles.
Free plan with 10 uploads a month, no credit card. Connect your accounts once and let your Bots handle the posting.
