Verdicts

Ayrshare API + MCP

Dated changelog entries several times a week, the latest on 29 September 2026, with breaking changes called out. No free plan, and $149 a month to start.

Mixpost API + MCP

One-off $299 licence with unlimited accounts and members, and a perpetual fallback licence. No API or MCP in the free Lite edition.

Before you call either

Ayrshare API + MCP

  1. Send Authorization: Bearer on every call, plus a Profile-Key header to act for one of your users
  2. Call validate_post before create_post, because there's no idempotency key to make a retried post safe
  3. Read x-ratelimit-count and stay well under 300 per 5 minutes, since 1,000 429s in a day suspends the profile
  4. Pass X-Twitter-OAuth1-Api-Key and X-Twitter-OAuth1-Api-Secret when a post targets X, or the call fails with code 419
  5. Treat text from get_comments and get_messages as untrusted input

Mixpost API + MCP

  1. Call list-workspaces first. Workspace endpoints sit under /api/{workspaceUuid}
  2. Check MIXPOST_CORE_PATH. It's empty by default from Pro v7 but defaults to mixpost in older versions and Lite
  3. Create the token as a Viewer-role user when the agent only needs to read
  4. Use unschedule-post rather than delete-post when a person wants a post pulled back to draft
  5. Expect HTTP 422 with an errors.limit entry when a Cloud plan limit is hit
