Claude Plugin MCP Server

Aidelly Claude Code Plugin

Automate Aidelly social media management directly from Claude Code. Create, schedule, and manage posts across all connected platforms with AI-powered MCP tools.

Features

• Create & Schedule Posts – Publish instantly or schedule for later across multiple platforms
• Approval Workflows – Require and manage post approvals before publishing
• Analytics – Pull engagement metrics and top-performing content
• Multi-Platform Support – Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter/X, TikTok, YouTube, Pinterest, Bluesky, Threads, Mastodon, Google Business
• Media Upload – Fetch and upload images/videos directly

Installation

Sign-in is one click. The Aidelly MCP server supports OAuth 2.1 with PKCE and dynamic client registration. Claude walks you through an Aidelly login and consent screen, so there's no key or workspace ID to copy, and the plugin never reads credentials from your machine.

Install via Claude Code Plugin Marketplace

/plugin marketplace add Aidelly/claude-plugin

Then sign in to Aidelly (see Setup below).

Manual Installation (Development)

Clone this repository and point Claude Code to the local plugin path:

git clone https://github.com/Aidelly/claude-plugin
cd claude-plugin
# Add to Claude Code plugin settings

Note: Ensure .mcp.json is committed in your local clone. The Aidelly monorepo ignores *.mcp.json files, so the public Aidelly/claude-plugin repository explicitly commits it. If you see a missing .mcp.json after cloning, run git check-ignore .mcp.json — if no output, it's been properly committed.

Setup

1. Sign in

The first time Claude uses an Aidelly tool, Claude Code asks you to sign in:

1. Run /mcp in Claude Code and choose aidelly → Authenticate (or start with any Aidelly request).
2. Your browser opens the Aidelly login and consent screen. Log in and approve access.
3. Return to Claude Code. The server shows as connected.

Signing in needs an Aidelly plan that includes API access. The token is issued to your account and expires; sign in again from /mcp when it does.

2. Pick a workspace

If you manage several workspaces, ask Claude to list them (aidelly_list_workspaces) and say which one to use. Claude passes the workspace to each tool, so there's nothing to configure.

3. Verify the connection

In Claude Code, run:

List my Aidelly workspaces and connected accounts.

Claude should return your workspace data.

Usage

Create a Post

Create a new post on Instagram with the text "Hello world!" and upload media.

Schedule a Post

Schedule a post for tomorrow at 2 PM with approval required.

Check Pending Approvals

List all posts waiting for approval and approve the first one.

Pull Analytics

Get the top 10 posts from the last 30 days and their engagement metrics.

Configuration

.mcp.json

The plugin wires to Aidelly's remote MCP server over streamable HTTP. There are no headers and no environment variables; OAuth handles sign-in:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aidelly": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://app.aidelly.ai/api/mcp/public-api"
    }
  }
}

plugin.json

Metadata for the Claude Code plugin directory:

{
  "name": "aidelly",
  "description": "Aidelly social content automation for Claude Code — create posts, schedule content, check approvals, and pull analytics.",
  "author": { "name": "Aidelly", "url": "https://aidelly.ai" },
  "homepage": "https://aidelly.ai",
  "repository": "https://github.com/Aidelly/claude-plugin",
  "privacyPolicyUrl": "https://www.aidelly.ai/privacy-policy",
  "icon": "./assets/icon.png",
  "version": "0.2.2"
}

Troubleshooting

"Unauthorized" Error

• Run /mcp, choose aidelly → Authenticate, and sign in again (the token may have expired)
• Confirm your Aidelly plan includes API access

"Forbidden" Error

• Make sure the workspace Claude is using is one your Aidelly account can access
• Ask Claude to list your workspaces and pick the right one

Rate Limit Exceeded

• The server allows 120 tool calls per minute per signed-in user
• Retry after a few seconds with exponential backoff

Platform-Specific Issues

• Instagram/TikTok deletion: These platforms don't allow post deletion via API
• LinkedIn org routing: Double-check that the author target matches your account type (member vs. organization)
• Text too long: Verify text length against platform limits in the skill documentation

API Endpoints

The plugin connects to https://app.aidelly.ai/api/mcp/public-api (Aidelly's MCP HTTP endpoint).

Authentication: OAuth 2.1 (PKCE + dynamic client registration), discovered from the server's .well-known/oauth-protected-resource metadata. Tool calls without a token return 401 with a WWW-Authenticate challenge, which starts the sign-in.

Tools exposed by the server:

• aidelly_create_post – Instant post publish
• aidelly_create_scheduled_post – Schedule a post
• aidelly_list_pending_approvals – Check pending approvals
• Approving or rejecting posts happens in the Aidelly app; the hosted server does not expose approval actions
• aidelly_get_analytics_summary – Pull engagement metrics
• aidelly_get_post – Get post details
• aidelly_upload_media – Upload image/video
• Full list of available tools

Release Notes

When bumping version in .claude-plugin/plugin.json and README:

## Version 0.2.2

- Uses the renamed tool IDs (for example `aidelly_create_content_automation`); the old IDs stay callable as hidden aliases
- The approval workflow approves in the Aidelly app, because the hosted server does not expose approval actions

## Version 0.2.1

- Adds `privacyPolicyUrl` (https://www.aidelly.ai/privacy-policy) to plugin.json

## Version 0.2.0

- `.mcp.json` declares `"type": "http"` so Claude Code loads the remote server
- Sign-in is OAuth only; no credentials are read from the user's machine
- Adds a 512×512 listing icon

## Version 0.1.0

**Initial release**
- Create, schedule, and publish posts across multiple platforms
- Approval workflow integration
- Analytics summary pull
- Media upload support
- 11 platforms supported
