From ChatGPT draft to X queue
The writing already happens in ChatGPT. With the public API or the CLI, the same conversation can create scheduled X posts instead of text to paste.
XAutomate X with ChatGPT
Draft X posts in ChatGPT, then let postqueen schedule and publish them. One conversation in, a full X queue out.
Quick start
Point a custom GPT action at the public API, or let agent modes that run commands use the CLI for X.
Custom GPT or CLI
# Custom GPT action: call the public APIPOST https://api.postqueen.ai/public/v1/postsAuthorization: your_api_key # Or in agent modes that run commands:npm install -g postqueenpostqueen posts:create --json x-week.jsonWhat ChatGPT can run on X
Windows that fit X
Tell ChatGPT when your followers are most active and it schedules posts into that window on X, day after day, without reminders.
Media attached, sized right
Images upload in the same postqueen call, so X posts arrive with their media in place instead of a bare link.
Drafts until you are ready
Ask ChatGPT for drafts only. They sit on the postqueen calendar unscheduled, so you can edit them and pick the time yourself, and nothing reaches your followers on X until you do.
Three steps to a full queue
Discover X
ChatGPT calls postqueen to list your connected accounts and sees what X supports, so drafts start from real capabilities, not guesses.
Draft with ChatGPT
Give it the brief. The agent writes X-shaped posts and proposes publish times that match when your followers are around.
Check and publish
Look over the queue on the postqueen calendar and change anything you want. postqueen publishes each post at its time, and ChatGPT can pull the results after.
What X allows
ChatGPT reads these limits from postqueen before it composes, so a draft that would be rejected never reaches the queue.
- Post length
- 280 characters on a standard account, up to 25,000 characters with X Premium
- Media per post
- Up to 4 images, or 1 GIF, or 1 video (images and GIFs cannot be mixed)
- Video length
- Up to 2 minutes 20 seconds on a standard account, longer for Premium subscribers
- Threads
- Chain any number of posts, published in order as native replies
- Alt text
- Up to 1,000 characters of image description per attachment
- API access
- Publishing runs on the official X API, so self-hosted installs connect with their own X developer app

F.A.Q.
Frequently asked questions
How does ChatGPT connect X to postqueen?
Through the public API from a custom GPT action, or through the CLI in agent modes that execute commands. Both use the same API key and cover X posts end to end.
Can ChatGPT schedule X posts at exact times?
Yes. Give it exact slots or a rule like mornings at nine and it sets publish times on the posts it creates, so your followers see them at the right moment.
Will ChatGPT publish to X on its own?
Only if you ask it to. Tell it to save drafts and nothing is scheduled: the posts wait on the calendar until you set a time. Tell it to schedule, and they go out at the times you can see, which is the setup most people move to once they trust the output.
Can one brief cover X and other channels too?
Yes. postqueen connects 30 channels, so ChatGPT can turn the same brief into X posts plus adapted versions for every other channel you run.
Does ChatGPT access cost extra on postqueen?
No. The agent uses your regular API key and plan limits: unlimited posts on every plan, and channel counts from 5 on Creator up to uncapped on Ultimate.
Can the AI write X posts and threads?
Yes. The assistant drafts posts in your voice, tightens anything that runs over the character limit and can expand one idea into a full thread. You edit it and pick the time before it publishes, and agents can generate whole batches through the CLI or the built-in MCP server.
Can I cross-post from X to Bluesky, Mastodon and Threads?
Yes. Write once, select X plus Bluesky, Mastodon or Threads as destinations, and adjust the wording per network before scheduling. Each one gets a real native post rather than a link pointing back to X.
