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.

OneUp API + MCP

API and MCP on every plan from $25 a month ($15 billed yearly). API key in the query string on REST and in the MCP URL, with no scopes.

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

OneUp API + MCP

  1. Call listcategory, then listcategoryaccount, then schedule. Pass social_network_id as ALL to post to every account in a category
  2. Keep the ?apiKey= URLs out of logs and shared configs, and regenerate the key on the API Access page if one leaks
  3. Set requireApproval or isDraftPost true when a person should review before anything goes out
  4. Page through lists with start, 50 posts at a time
  5. Give dates as YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM with no timezone field, so confirm the account timezone first
