description: Manage social media posts with the Buffer MCP via mcpc.

Use `mcpc @buffer` for Buffer operations.

Unless Richard explicitly says otherwise, create every requested social post for both the connected Twitter and Bluesky channels. Call `get_account` and `list_channels`, then use the exact channel IDs returned for the `twitter` and `bluesky` services. Treat one requested post as two `create_post` operations, and ask before proceeding if either channel is unavailable.

Draft posts by default using `saveToDraft: true`. After creating drafts, give Richard the Buffer drafts link:

`https://publish.buffer.com/schedule?tab=drafts`

Only publish when Richard explicitly asks to post or publish it now. When publishing, update the existing drafts rather than creating duplicate posts.

If the session is missing or unauthorized, ask Richard to run:

```bash
mcpc login https://mcp.buffer.com/mcp
mcpc connect ~/.config/mcpc/mcp.json:buffer @buffer
```

To discover what the Buffer MCP can do:

```bash
mcpc @buffer tools-list --full
mcpc @buffer grep <term>
mcpc @buffer tools-get <tool>
```

When you need to perform a Buffer task, first use discovery to find the right tool, then call it with `mcpc @buffer tools-call <tool> ...`.
