# Schedule Social Media Posts with Muse

Muse (always-on agent by Meta)

Guide: https://lots.social/agents/muse

Muse can create custom connectors for services it does not list. Give it LotsSocial’s API reference and MCP endpoint so it can prepare a publishing connection for your accounts.

Example workflow: Create a custom LotsSocial connector from its API documentation. Use this approved menu to save next week’s Instagram drafts, and ask before scheduling.

**Ask for a custom connector.** Muse’s custom-connector flow starts in the conversation. Share the LotsSocial API documentation and remote endpoint; let Muse guide the setup.

**Complete its credential request.** Use Muse’s Secure Credentials Store when authentication is needed. The LotsSocial connection is not presented as a built-in Meta connector.

**Review the content and schedule.** Ask for drafts first and check Muse’s action-approval settings. Scheduling is a separate instruction after you review the saved posts.

### How do I connect Muse to LotsSocial?

Follow the Muse setup below to add https://api.lots.social/mcp. Complete sign-in using the authentication method shown. Ask your agent to list your connected accounts, then save your first post as a draft.

### Does Muse use an MCP settings screen?

Meta documents a conversational custom-connector flow. Ask Muse to create the connector in your conversation and complete the authentication it requests.

### Which social platforms can Muse schedule posts to through LotsSocial?

Once a compatible connection has write access, LotsSocial provides publishing and scheduling for 12 networks: LinkedIn, Instagram, X, Google Business, Facebook, YouTube, Reddit, Threads, TikTok, Pinterest, Bluesky, Mastodon. Connect your accounts first. Formats, media requirements and available analytics vary by platform.

### Can Muse save social posts as drafts before scheduling?

Yes, through a compatible connection with write tools. Ask for drafts explicitly and review the captions, media and accounts. Drafts remain unscheduled until you ask to schedule them; you choose when to schedule them.

### Will scheduled posts publish after I close Muse?

Once a post is successfully scheduled in LotsSocial, its publishing queue handles delivery at the chosen time even when your agent is closed. Creating new drafts or running a recurring brief still requires your agent. Check post status for platform rejections or failed deliveries.

### Do I need a subscription to use LotsSocial with Muse?

No LotsSocial subscription is required. Pick a plan for a fixed monthly price, or pay per connected account with credits, charged daily. Eligible new users receive free starter credits with no card required, valid for 90 days. Media storage is free and purchased credits never expire. Your agent’s own plan or usage fees are separate. Current rates are on the LotsSocial pricing page.

### Can Muse manage multiple brands with LotsSocial?

Through a compatible connection, your agent can work with brands and their connected accounts inside a workspace. Separate businesses can have separate workspaces. Brands, workspaces, posts and team members are unlimited; connected accounts are covered by your plan or funded with credits.

### Muse cannot reach the server

Check the URL ends in /mcp and that Muse chose HTTP, not a local command.

Needs:
- Muse, where it is available

Steps:
1. **Ask Muse to add LotsSocial.** Ask Muse to create a custom connector for LotsSocial. Share this endpoint and the API documentation at https://lots.social/api.md. Muse guides the setup and asks for the authentication it needs.
   `https://api.lots.social/mcp`
2. **Sign in.** When Muse asks how the server authenticates, choose sign-in. If it asks for a key instead, create one at https://api.lots.social/dashboard and paste it into Muse’s credential prompt, never into the chat.
3. **Set approval for posting.** In Muse settings you can require approval for every action a connector takes. Keep it on for actions that schedule posts.
