Automate Facebook with Gemini CLI

Queue Facebook posts from the terminal. Gemini CLI runs every postqueen command and reads the JSON back, so it can check what it scheduled.

Quick start

Run the postqueen CLI directly, or add the MCP endpoint to your Gemini CLI settings and ask for Facebook posts in plain language.

MCP supported
Terminal or settings.json
npm install -g postqueen
export POSTQUEEN_API_KEY=your_api_key
 
# Or MCP, in your Gemini CLI settings:
# { "mcpServers": { "postqueen": {
# "url": "https://api.postqueen.ai/mcp/KEY"
# } } }

What Gemini CLI can run on Facebook

Facebook commands it can verify

Gemini CLI runs postqueen and reads the JSON back, so it can confirm which Facebook posts exist and at what times instead of reporting success it did not check.

Windows that fit Facebook

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

Community rules respected

Gemini CLI targets the exact pages you choose and keeps every submission reviewable, so you can check each one against community rules first.

Drafts until you are ready

Ask Gemini CLI 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 Facebook until you do.

Three steps to a full queue

Step 1

Discover Facebook

Gemini CLI calls postqueen to list your connected pages and sees what Facebook supports, so drafts start from real capabilities, not guesses.

Step 2

Draft with Gemini CLI

Give it the brief. The agent writes Facebook-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 Gemini CLI can pull the results after.

What Facebook allows

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

Frequently asked questions

How does Gemini CLI connect Facebook to postqueen?

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

Can Gemini CLI schedule Facebook 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 Gemini CLI publish to Facebook 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 Facebook and other channels too?

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

Does Gemini CLI 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 I self-host Facebook scheduling, and is there a free trial?

Both. Every cloud plan starts with a 7-day free trial and you can cancel anytime. The open source version is free to self-host with Docker; for Facebook you create your own app in Meta's developer portal and add its credentials to your configuration.

Which Facebook formats can postqueen schedule?

Text updates, single photos and multi-photo posts, link posts, native video and reels. You compose once, preview the result, and postqueen publishes it to the Page at the scheduled time.
