Run Bluesky from a chat message
OpenClaw executes the postqueen CLI on your own machine, so a single message can create, schedule or reschedule Bluesky posts with no dashboard open.
BlueskyAutomate Bluesky with OpenClaw
Message your agent from the chat apps you already use and it drafts, schedules and publishes Bluesky posts through postqueen while you get on with your day.
Quick start
Install the postqueen CLI on the machine OpenClaw runs on, then drive Bluesky from any chat thread.
Terminal
# Give OpenClaw the postqueen CLInpm install -g postqueenexport POSTQUEEN_API_KEY=your_api_key # Then message your agent:# "Draft three Bluesky posts about our# launch and schedule them for this week"What OpenClaw can run on Bluesky
Windows that fit Bluesky
Tell OpenClaw 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 OpenClaw 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
Discover Bluesky
OpenClaw calls postqueen to list your connected accounts and sees what Bluesky supports, so drafts start from real capabilities, not guesses.
Draft with OpenClaw
Give it the brief. The agent writes Bluesky-shaped posts and proposes publish times that match when your followers 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 OpenClaw can pull the results after.
What Bluesky allows
OpenClaw reads these limits from postqueen before it composes, so a draft that would be rejected never reaches the queue.
- Post length
- 300 characters per post
- Images
- Up to 4 per post, with alt text support

F.A.Q.
Frequently asked questions
How does OpenClaw connect Bluesky to postqueen?
Install the postqueen CLI where OpenClaw runs commands and export your API key. Every command returns JSON, so the agent can create, schedule and list Bluesky posts reliably.
Can OpenClaw 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 OpenClaw 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 OpenClaw can turn the same brief into Bluesky posts plus adapted versions for every other channel you run.
Does OpenClaw 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.
What Bluesky formats can postqueen schedule?
Text posts up to 300 characters, galleries of up to 4 images with alt text, video, and posts that carry link cards. You can also compose full threads and postqueen publishes them as a native reply chain.
What do I need to connect Bluesky?
Any Bluesky account works, there is no business tier to upgrade to. Create an app password in your Bluesky settings, then connect with your handle and that password. You can revoke the app password at any time without changing your main login.
