Automate LinkedIn with Gemini CLI

Queue LinkedIn 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 LinkedIn 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 LinkedIn

LinkedIn commands it can verify

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

Windows that fit LinkedIn

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

Media attached, sized right

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

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 LinkedIn until you do.

Three steps to a full queue

Step 1

Discover LinkedIn

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

Step 2

Draft with Gemini CLI

Give it the brief. The agent writes LinkedIn-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 LinkedIn allows

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

Post length
Up to 3,000 characters per post
Images
Up to 9 images in a multi-image post
Video
Up to 10 minutes and 5 GB per native video
Image aspect ratios
From 1.91:1 landscape to 1:1 square and 4:5 portrait
Destinations
Personal profiles and company pages, with an admin role needed for a page
Token lifetime
LinkedIn access tokens expire after about 60 days, so connections need a periodic reconnect

Frequently asked questions

How does Gemini CLI connect LinkedIn to postqueen?

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

Can Gemini CLI schedule LinkedIn 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 LinkedIn 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 LinkedIn and other channels too?

Yes. postqueen connects 30 channels, so Gemini CLI can turn the same brief into LinkedIn 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 LinkedIn 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 LinkedIn you create your own app in LinkedIn's developer portal and request the posting products it needs before the connection will work.

Which LinkedIn formats can postqueen schedule?

Text posts, single image and multi-image posts, link posts and native video, on personal profiles and on company pages. You compose once, preview the result, and postqueen publishes at the scheduled time.
