API and MCP only on Business and Enterprise, and the free plan has no API.\n\n**Typefully.** A public OpenAPI 3.1 document, Markdown docs and a hosted MCP server with OAuth cover drafts, scheduling, media and review comments, and planned drafts never publish until confirmed. Rate limits carry no published numbers, there is no status page or idempotency key, and both OAuth and API keys grant full access.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Publer API + MCP\n\n1. List workspaces first and send Publer-Workspace-Id on later calls, or expect a 403\n2. Poll /job_status/{job_id} after posts/schedule and read payload.failures, since status reads complete even when posts failed\n3. Use the Bearer-API scheme, not Bearer\n4. Leave a one-minute gap between posts to the same account, or the job fails\n5. Read X-RateLimit-Reset after a 429 and wait until then, as there's no Retry-After\n\n### Typefully\n\n1. Call `GET /v2/social-sets` first. Every draft, media, tag and queue path needs a `social_set_id`\n2. Use `plan_at` or omit both dates to leave a draft unpublished. `publish_at: \"now\"` posts at once and is asynchronous\n3. Do not retry a failed publish blindly. Read the draft's `status` and `publish_state` first, because no idempotency key exists\n4. Read `X-RateLimit-User-Remaining` and `X-RateLimit-SocialSet-Remaining` on each response, and wait until the `Reset` timestamp after a 429\n5. Send the key only as `Authorization: Bearer`. The legacy MCP URL with `?TYPEFULLY_API_KEY=` still works and puts the key in logs\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Publer API + MCP or Typefully?\n\nTypefully scores 49.1 (D) on agent readiness against Publer API + MCP's 46.8 (D), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories.
