## Before you call it

1. Send `Authorization: Apikey <key>` on REST. The MCP also takes Bearer
2. Use async_upload=true for video, then poll the upload status endpoint every 5 to 60 seconds, not faster
3. Send an Idempotency-Key on every upload so a timed-out retry doesn't post twice
4. Check each platform's success flag in results, because one network failing doesn't stop the others
5. Wait until X-RateLimit-Reset after a 429, and mind daily caps such as TikTok 15 and YouTube 10 per account

## Connect

```bash
curl https://api.upload-post.com/api/uploadposts/me -H "Authorization: Apikey $UPLOAD_POST_API_KEY"
```

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http upload-post https://mcp.upload-post.com/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer $UPLOAD_POST_API_KEY"
```
