A side-by-side look at the 1Social and Postforme MCP Pro MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose 1Social for social media work as a local process; choose Postforme MCP Pro for social media as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
list_accounts, preview_post, publish_post.POSTFORME_API_KEY.list_social_accounts, get_social_account, create_social_account.Rows where the two servers differ are marked.

list_accountsConnected accounts, what each network accepts, current plan, remaining quota. Call it first — channel ids come from here.preview_postFree dry run: per-network limits, media requirements, threading behaviour, quota cost. Nothing is published.publish_postPublishes now, or schedules up to 30 days ahead. Returns a per-network receipt. Takes an `idempotencyKey`.list_postsPosts with their delivery outcome per network — delivered, failed with a reason, cancelled, or `unknown` — plus stored engagement metrics.update_postEdits a post that has not been sent yet. The networks have no edit endpoint, so it withdraws and replaces.cancel_postUnschedules a post and releases the quota it reserved.delete_postDeletes from 1Social and attempts removal from each network. See [What deletion can and cannot do](#what-deletion-can-and-cannot-do).retry_deliveryRetries one failed network, leaving the successful ones alone. Refused for permanent failures.upload_mediaPre-signed upload target, for clients that cannot attach a file to a tool call.confirm_deliveryRecords **your** answer about a delivery whose outcome was unknown: is the post live on that network or not?list_social_accountsList connected accounts (filter by platform/username).get_social_accountGet one account by id.create_social_accountConnect an account by supplying credentials.update_social_accountUpdate stored credentials/metadata.create_auth_urlStart the OAuth connect flow (returns a URL).disconnect_social_accountRevoke access for an account.list_account_feedsAnalytics:** recent feed + engagement metrics for an account.create_postCreate a post (publish now, schedule, or draft) across accounts.publish_nowShortcut: publish immediately.schedule_postShortcut: schedule for an ISO-8601 time.create_draftShortcut: save as draft.get_postGet a post by id.Paste either block (or both) into your client config, e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json. We only show a config when the install command is confirmed.
