Listmonk publishing as software
Codex runs postqueen commands, reads the JSON results and verifies each step, so your Listmonk pipeline behaves like any other task it automates in CI or cron.
ListmonkAutomate Listmonk with Codex
Point Codex at the postqueen CLI and it creates, schedules and verifies Listmonk campaigns as one repeatable task you can rerun any time.
Quick start
Set up the CLI inside the workspace Codex uses, then describe the Listmonk outcome you want in the task prompt.
Codex session
# Inside a Codex sessionnpm install -g postqueenexport POSTQUEEN_API_KEY=your_api_key # Then prompt:# "Create this week's Listmonk campaigns# from notes.md and schedule them# with postqueen"What Codex can run on Listmonk
Windows that fit Listmonk
Tell Codex when your lists are busiest and it schedules campaigns into that window on Listmonk, day after day, without reminders.
Whole campaigns, scheduled
Codex drafts the campaign and postqueen delivers it to your Listmonk lists, so subscribers hear from you on a schedule you set once.
Drafts until you are ready
Ask Codex for drafts only. They sit on the postqueen calendar unscheduled, so you can edit them and pick the time yourself, and nothing reaches your subscribers on Listmonk until you do.
Three steps to a full queue
Discover Listmonk
Codex calls postqueen to list your connected lists and sees what Listmonk supports, so drafts start from real capabilities, not guesses.
Draft with Codex
Give it the brief. The agent writes Listmonk-shaped campaigns and proposes publish times that match when your subscribers 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 Codex can pull the results after.
What Listmonk allows
Codex reads these limits from postqueen before it composes, so a draft that would be rejected never reaches the queue.

F.A.Q.
Frequently asked questions
How does Codex connect Listmonk to postqueen?
Install the postqueen CLI where Codex runs commands and export your API key. Every command returns JSON, so the agent can create, schedule and list Listmonk campaigns reliably.
Can Codex schedule Listmonk campaigns at exact times?
Yes. Give it exact slots or a rule like mornings at nine and it sets publish times on the campaigns it creates, keeping your lists active on a steady rhythm.
Will Codex publish to Listmonk on its own?
Only if you ask it to. Tell it to save drafts and nothing is scheduled: the campaigns 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 Listmonk and other channels too?
Yes. postqueen connects 30 channels, so Codex can turn the same brief into Listmonk campaigns plus adapted versions for every other channel you run.
Does Codex 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 assistant write my newsletter?
Yes. It can draft the subject line and the body, tighten a rambling section, or repurpose a blog post into email form. You review everything before it is handed to Listmonk, and nothing sends until you schedule it.
What analytics are available for campaigns?
Listmonk records campaign views and link clicks in its own dashboard when tracking is enabled, and that data stays on your server. postqueen keeps the calendar side: which campaigns went out, when, and how they line up with the rest of your content.
