Automate Bluesky with Claude Code

Queue Bluesky posts from your terminal. Claude Code drives postqueen over MCP or the CLI, so scheduling happens in the session you already have open.

Quick start

Register the postqueen MCP server once and Bluesky scheduling becomes a tool Claude Code can call. The plain CLI works too.

MCP supported
Terminal
# Add the postqueen MCP server
claude mcp add --transport http postqueen \
https://api.postqueen.ai/mcp/YOUR_API_KEY
 
# Then ask in your session:
# "Queue three Bluesky posts for this
# week, mornings at 9"

What Claude Code can run on Bluesky

Bluesky tools in your terminal

Over MCP, scheduling and analytics show up as first-class tools. Over the CLI, every command returns JSON that Claude Code can chain reliably for Bluesky.

Windows that fit Bluesky

Tell Claude Code when your followers are most active and it schedules posts into that window on Bluesky, day after day, without reminders.

Media attached, sized right

Images upload in the same postqueen call, so Bluesky posts arrive with their media in place instead of a bare link.

Drafts until you are ready

Ask Claude Code 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 Bluesky until you do.

Three steps to a full queue

Step 1

Discover Bluesky

Claude Code calls postqueen to list your connected accounts and sees what Bluesky supports, so drafts start from real capabilities, not guesses.

Step 2

Draft with Claude Code

Give it the brief. The agent writes Bluesky-shaped posts and proposes publish times that match when your followers are around.

Step 3

Check and publish

Look over the queue on the postqueen calendar and change anything you want. postqueen publishes each post at its time, and Claude Code can pull the results after.

What Bluesky allows

Claude Code reads these limits from postqueen before it composes, so a draft that would be rejected never reaches the queue.

Frequently asked questions

How does Claude Code connect Bluesky to postqueen?

Over MCP, registered once in Claude Code's own config so the Bluesky tools are there in every session. It also runs commands, so the CLI covers the same Bluesky posts when you would rather script them; both use the same API key.

Can Claude Code schedule Bluesky 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 Claude Code publish to Bluesky 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 Bluesky and other channels too?

Yes. postqueen connects 30 channels, so Claude Code can turn the same brief into Bluesky posts plus adapted versions for every other channel you run.

Does Claude Code 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.

When is the best time to post on Bluesky?

Bluesky audiences are spread across timezones, so there is no single right hour. Schedule consistent slots through the day, watch which posts pick up replies and reposts, and adjust your queue from there.

Can I cross-post to X, Threads and Mastodon at the same time?

Yes. Compose once, select every channel, and tweak each version before it publishes. Bluesky's 300 character limit is the tightest of the group, so postqueen lets you trim that version separately without touching the others.
