Verdicts
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.
Postiz API + MCP
AGPL-3.0 and self-hostable with the API and MCP included, 34 platforms. Create-post capped at 90 requests an hour on every Cloud plan.
Before you call either
Mixpost API + MCP
- Call list-workspaces first. Workspace endpoints sit under /api/{workspaceUuid}
- Check MIXPOST_CORE_PATH. It's empty by default from Pro v7 but defaults to mixpost in older versions and Lite
- Create the token as a Viewer-role user when the agent only needs to read
- Use unschedule-post rather than delete-post when a person wants a post pulled back to draft
- Expect HTTP 422 with an errors.limit entry when a Cloud plan limit is hit
Postiz API + MCP
- Send the key as the
Authorizationheader with noBearerprefix on REST calls - Batch several posts into one create request to stay under 90 an hour
- Call integrationSchema (Get Settings) for a channel before scheduling, since each network has its own settings
- Use the Bearer header on /mcp rather than /mcp/{key} so the key stays out of logs
- Read output.errors on a failed schedule call and retry with the corrected fields
