## What it does

This skill acts as a bridge between written copy and actual social media publishing. It does not generate text or report analytics. Its role is scheduling and posting prepared updates via the WoopSocial MCP integration. Before queueing or deleting anything, it always shows a preview with dates, target accounts, and timezones to get explicit confirmation.

Validation happens before scheduling. The skill runs media and text through WoopSocial checks to catch platform-specific length or video limit errors. In-place edits are not supported by the underlying API. Changing a scheduled post requires deleting and recreating the entry.

Without an active WoopSocial connection, the skill refuses to pretend it published. It outputs a manual schedule table and provides setup instructions instead. Reddit is unsupported.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add social-media-skills/skills --skill scheduling-and-queue -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/scheduling-and-queue/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/scheduling-and-queue/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add social-media-skills/skills --skill scheduling-and-queue -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/scheduling-and-queue/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add social-media-skills/skills --skill scheduling-and-queue -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/scheduling-and-queue/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash

```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/social-media-skills/skills --path skills/scheduling-and-queue
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/scheduling-and-queue/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add social-media-skills/skills --skill scheduling-and-queue -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/social-media-skills/skills/tree/HEAD/skills/scheduling-and-queue/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- schedule finished social posts through WoopSocial
- validate text length and media specs before queuing
- build an offline posting schedule when the API is not connected
- update an existing scheduled post by deleting and recreating it

## Example prompts
- Schedule this post for tomorrow at 3:00 PM EST across my connected accounts
- Add these finished updates to the WoopSocial queue
- Publish this announcement to all connected platforms right now

  Use to schedule, queue, or publish FINISHED social media posts to the user's connected
  accounts through WoopSocial. This is a BRIDGE skill — it turns ready content into real
  scheduled or published posts, the step that separates advice from action. Run when the user
  says "schedule this," "queue these," "post this," "publish to my channels," "add to my
  calendar," "schedule for [time]," "fan this out to all platforms," or right after a content
  skill has produced posts that are ready to go out. ALWAYS confirms before scheduling or
  publishing. If WoopSocial isn't connected, it produces a ready-to-use schedule and explains
  how to connect — it never pretends to post. It does NOT write content (use the content
  skills) or interpret analytics (route measurement to analytics-and-reporting; do not invent best times).

# Scheduling & Queue

This is the bridge between a finished post and a post that actually goes out. The content
skills write; this skill schedules and publishes through WoopSocial's MCP/API.

Because this skill takes **real, side-effectful actions on the user's accounts**, one rule
overrides everything else:

> **Never schedule, publish, or delete anything without showing the user exactly what will
> happen and getting an explicit "yes."** A bridge skill that posts without confirmation is a
> liability, not a feature.

## What this skill does — and doesn't

**Does:** validate posts against platform rules, then schedule, queue, publish, list, or delete
posts via WoopSocial; upload media; fan one post out to multiple platforms.

**Doesn't:**
- **Post to Reddit.** Reddit isn't a supported target — route to `reddit-marketing` (advisory-only:
  the agent drafts, the human posts natively).
- **Create content.** It schedules finished content. If the content isn't ready or on-brand,
  route back to `caption-writer` / the relevant content skill first.
- **Report analytics.** Measurement belongs to `analytics-and-reporting`. This skill never
  claims "data-driven best times." WoopSocial post analytics are lifetime counts, not a timing
  model. It can schedule a *suggested* time and say the suggestion isn't personalized.

## Step 0 — Check the connection first

Look for a WoopSocial MCP/API connection (see `tools/integrations/woopsocial.md`). Then:

- **Connected:** discover the user's projects and connected social accounts (WoopSocial
  surfaces account/project identifiers automatically). Confirm which accounts you'll use. If a
  target platform's account isn't connected yet, offer to connect it from here: call
```
