Which MCP Server Should You Choose?
Choose Chirpie when:
You need dedicated capabilities in the Social Media domain.
You prefer local stdio subprocess transport architecture.
Your security boundary fits: No auth required (Free / Open Source).
Upload an image or video and get the id a post can attach. `idempotency_key` makes a retry safe
chirpie_post
Post to any connected account, now or scheduled, or to several at once. `configuration` publishes it as a story or a reel instead of a feed post; `timezone` reads a `schedule_at` with no offset in an IANA zone; `idempotency_key` makes a retry safe; `draft` saves it instead
chirpie_thread
Post a 2-25 part thread, to one account or to several at once. Takes `timezone` and `idempotency_key` too; `draft` saves it instead
chirpie_list_posts
List posts, filtered by status, account, or the group of a multi-account publish
chirpie_get_post
Fetch one post
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
Chirpie is categorized under Social Media and uses a local stdio subprocess. In contrast, Signalpipe belongs to Social Media using remote streaming HTTP/SSE transport. Select Chirpie when you need capabilities focused on social media and Signalpipe when you require tools for social media.
Edit a post that has not published yet, or finish a draft and schedule or publish it. `configuration` changes where it publishes
chirpie_retry_first_comment
Post a first comment that failed, again. `idempotency_key` makes a retry safe
chirpie_delete_post
Take a post down from the platform. Chirpie keeps it, marked deleted
chirpie_hide_post
Hide a post from your Chirpie listings. Nothing reaches the platform
chirpie_unhide_post
Put a hidden post back in your listings
chirpie_list_accounts

Signalpipe Tools (20)
signalpipe_get_missions
List pending leads awaiting review — score, role, channel, snippet, draft. Lean by default; opt into `include_context=true` only when drafting.
signalpipe_draft_mission
Get the drafting payload for a single mission so the host LLM can write the reply itself (BYOK path)
signalpipe_upload_draft
Upload a host-LLM-written draft to a mission
signalpipe_approve_mission
Approve a lead and queue it for outreach
signalpipe_reject_mission
Reject a lead with a reason — teaches the per-station RL loop (penalty size adapts to the reason; demotes one noisy feed without dragging the rest of the product down). **Don't** use this when the post is just gone — use `signalpipe_delete_mission` instead.
signalpipe_delete_mission
Hard-delete a mission row — silent cleanup, no learning signal. Companion to reject. **Canonical case:** the post was deleted / 404'd / removed before you could reply.
signalpipe_scout_now
Trigger an on-demand scouting run across all active products
signalpipe_get_products
List all configured products
signalpipe_add_product
Register a new product to monitor — describe it in buyer language
signalpipe_add_station
