Automate Threads with Claude

Ask Claude for Threads posts and it schedules them through postqueen. Add the connector once on the web and the same tools answer on your phone.

Quick start

Add postqueen as a connector on claude.ai and Threads scheduling is available in every chat, including the phone apps.

MCP supported
Custom connector
# claude.ai, Settings, then Connectors
# Add a custom connector:
 
https://api.postqueen.ai/mcp/YOUR_API_KEY
 
# Then ask:
# "Draft three Threads posts for this
# week and put them on the calendar"

What Claude can run on Threads

Threads from any device

The connector belongs to your Claude account rather than a machine, so the same Threads tools answer on the web, on the desktop and in the phone apps.

Windows that fit Threads

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

Media attached, sized right

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

Drafts until you are ready

Ask Claude 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 Threads until you do.

Three steps to a full queue

Step 1

Discover Threads

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

Step 2

Draft with Claude

Give it the brief. The agent writes Threads-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 can pull the results after.

What Threads allows

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

Post length
Up to 500 characters per post
Video length
Up to 5 minutes per video
Carousels
2 to 20 images or videos in one post
Topic tags
One tag per post (Threads uses topic tags instead of classic hashtags)
API publishing
Up to 250 API-published posts per profile per 24 hours
Account
A Threads profile, created with an Instagram account

F.A.Q.

Frequently asked questions

How does Claude connect Threads to postqueen?

Over MCP, as a custom connector added once on claude.ai. Claude has no terminal, so there is no CLI to install: the connector carries your API key and the Threads tools then answer in the desktop and phone apps too.

Can Claude schedule Threads 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 publish to Threads 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 Threads and other channels too?

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

Does Claude 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.

Why did my scheduled Threads post fail?

The most common causes are an expired connection, a video longer than 5 minutes or in an unsupported format, and, very rarely, the API cap of 250 published posts per 24 hours. Reconnect the profile or fix the media, then schedule the post again.

Can I try Threads scheduling for free?

Yes. Every postqueen cloud plan starts with a 7-day free trial and you can cancel anytime. If you would rather run it yourself, the open source version is free to self-host with the official Docker image.
