What is PostSider?

PostSider is an open-source social media management and scheduling platform built around four ways of working:

Use PostSider as	What you get
Social media scheduler	One calendar for planning, composing, approving, scheduling, and publishing content
Self-hosted platform	A Docker-based deployment you can run on your own infrastructure
Automation backend	A public REST API plus the @postsider/node SDK
AI-agent bridge	An MCP server that lets compatible agents work with PostSider through structured tools

PostSider ships with 33 active connectors registered in the application. You configure credentials only for the platforms you actually use.

AI features are optional. PostSider works without an OpenAI API key.

---

Quick Start

For a local evaluation, the fastest path is Docker Compose.

Requirements

• Docker
• Docker Compose

Start PostSider

git clone https://github.com/lumizone/postsider.git
cd postsider
docker compose up -d

The default Compose stack pulls:

ghcr.io/lumizone/postsider-app:latest

and starts PostSider with PostgreSQL, Redis, and Temporal.

Open:

http://localhost:4007

Create the first administrator account:

docker exec -it postsider pnpm bootstrap

The bootstrap command prints a one-time password. Sign in with:

[email protected]

and the generated password. PostSider then prompts you to set your real email address and password.

The root docker-compose.yaml is convenient for local evaluation. For an internet-facing deployment, use the production setup and the self-hosting guide.

Supported Platforms

The list below mirrors the active providers registered in:

libraries/nestjs-libraries/src/integrations/integration.manager.ts

Category	Platforms
Social & creator platforms	X, LinkedIn Profile, LinkedIn Page, Facebook, Instagram via Facebook, Instagram Standalone, Threads, YouTube, TikTok, Pinterest, Bluesky, Mastodon, Nostr, Farcaster, Lemmy, Twitch, Dribbble, Google Business Profile, Whop, Moltbook
Chat & community	Discord, Slack, Telegram
Blogs & publishing	Dev.to, Hashnode, Medium, WordPress, Ghost, Blogger, Notion, Mataroa, Write.as, Listmonk

That is 33 active connectors in the current integration registry.

You only need OAuth/API credentials for the providers you intend to use. See:

• .env.example
• Channel configuration
• Environment configuration

Mastodon supports custom instances through the standard Mastodon provider.

Adding a provider

Provider integrations live in:

libraries/nestjs-libraries/src/integrations/social/

A new connector typically:

1. Extends SocialAbstract
2. Implements SocialProvider
3. Is registered in socialIntegrationList in integration.manager.ts
4. Adds the corresponding frontend platform metadata/assets

New provider integrations are especially welcome as pull requests.

---

AI Agents (MCP)

PostSider includes an MCP server for compatible AI clients and agents.

The package is:

@postsider/mcp

The MCP layer is a thin interface over PostSider's public API and exposes 19 tools for workflows such as:

• Listing connected channels
• Reviewing the publishing calendar
• Creating drafts
• Requesting approval
• Uploading media
• Working with scheduled content
• Reading analytics

The intended workflow is read-first and draft-first: an agent can prepare work inside the same PostSider workflow used by humans, while publishing remains a deliberate action.

Build the MCP server

pnpm --filter @postsider/mcp build

For a local/stdio connection, configure:

POSTSIDER_API_KEY
POSTSIDER_API_URL

POSTSIDER_API_URL points the MCP server at the PostSider instance you want to use.

Full MCP documentation:

• apps/mcp/README.md
• Hosted MCP walkthrough

Claude Code plugin

This repository also contains the Claude Code plugin metadata and the postsider-workflow skill.

claude plugin marketplace add lumizone/postsider
claude plugin install postsider@postsider

A safe read-only connection check:

List my connected PostSider channels. Do not create or modify anything.

---

Public API & SDK

PostSider exposes a public REST API for external applications and automation.

Authenticate with your organization's API key.

Node.js SDK

The published SDK package is:

npm install @postsider/node

Example:

import Postsider from '@postsider/node';

const client = new Postsider(
  'your-api-key',
  'https://your-instance.com'
);

// Schedule a post
await client.post({
  type: 'schedule',
  date: '2025-01-15T10:00:00',
  posts: [
    {
      integration: { id: 'channel-id' },
      value: [{ content: 'Hello!' }],
    },
  ],
});

// List posts
const posts = await client.postList({
  page: 0,
  limit: 20,
});

// List connected channels
const channels = await client.integrations();

The public API is exposed under /public/v1.

Architecture

PostSider is a TypeScript pnpm monorepo.

Tech stack

Layer	Technology
Backend API	NestJS 11, TypeScript
Frontend	Next.js 15, React 19
Database	PostgreSQL + Prisma 6.5
Cache	Redis
Workflow engine	Temporal
AI	OpenAI, optional
Billing	Polar.sh, optional
Storage	Local filesystem, Cloudflare R2, or MinIO
Authentication	JWT, GitHub OAuth, Google OAuth, Generic OIDC
Monitoring	Sentry

Design decisions

Temporal for durable scheduling

Scheduled publishing and token-refresh work run through Temporal workflows so background jobs are not tied to one web-process lifetime.

Provider-based integrations

Each social platform is implemented behind a common provider interface. The active registry lives in integration.manager.ts.

Public API first

External tools can use /public/v1, while Node.js consumers can use @postsider/node.

One codebase for hosted and self-hosted deployments

Optional capabilities are controlled through environment configuration. Billing and AI are not required for a self-hosted installation.

---

Configuration

Start from the example environment file:

cp .env.example .env

The primary local-development settings are:

Variable	Purpose
DATABASE_URL	PostgreSQL connection string
REDIS_URL	Redis connection string
JWT_SECRET	JWT signing secret
BACKEND_URL	URL used to reach the backend
FRONTEND_URL	URL used to reach the frontend
NEXT_PUBLIC_BACKEND_URL	Public backend URL embedded in the frontend
BACKEND_INTERNAL_URL	Backend URL used by internal services

For production, set a dedicated ENCRYPTION_KEY as documented in .env.example.

The full reference is maintained in:

• .env.example
• PostSider environment documentation

Storage

Local storage is the default:

STORAGE_PROVIDER=local
UPLOAD_DIRECTORY=./uploads

Cloudflare R2 and MinIO are also supported through environment configuration.

Provider credentials

Social providers have their own API/OAuth settings. You do not need to configure all 33 providers.

Configure only the services you plan to connect.

---

Self-Hosting

PostSider is designed to run on your own infrastructure.

Two Compose files are included:

File	Purpose
docker-compose.yaml	Simple local/evaluation stack using the published GHCR image
docker-compose.production.yaml	Production-oriented stack built from the repository

The production stack includes the PostSider application, PostgreSQL, Redis, MinIO, Temporal, and supporting services used by the deployment.

For production, use the dedicated guide:

Self-host PostSider

The production Compose file intentionally expects production secrets and deployment-specific values rather than shipping usable defaults.
