DeepSeek Harness + Honkpost

Post to social media from DeepSeek Harness

DeepSeek’s agent harness can post through Honkpost with a key.

  • Uses a Honkpost key.
  • cordis.patch.yml in your profile

Just ask

Tell DeepSeek Harness what to post, where and when, in plain words. It writes it and schedules it.

See it first

You get the post back as a card with its time. Move it or cancel it before it goes out.

Posts on time

Honkpost publishes at the time you set, with DeepSeek Harness closed. Nothing to keep open.

Makes the image too

Ask for a picture and it makes or edits one for the post, paid in the image credits that come with your plan.

Set it up

3 steps. Then just ask.

  • DeepSeek Harness (dsh)
  • A Honkpost account with a channel connected

Written from DeepSeek Harness MCP setup (2026-10-23). Apps move their menus. If a step doesn't match, tell us at support@honkpost.com.

1

Make a Honkpost key

In Honkpost, open Settings → Connect AI → Other apps, pick your app and click Make key. The key is shown once, so copy it straight away. It works in any app.

Open Connect AI
2

Add Honkpost to your profile

Add this to cordis.patch.yml under $DSH_HOME/profiles/<your profile>/, with your key in place of the placeholder. Keep the word Bearer.

- id: mcp-honkpost
  name: '@deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-client'
  config:
    serverName: honkpost
    transport: streamable-http
    url: https://honkpost.com/api/mcp
    headers:
      Authorization: Bearer PASTE_YOUR_HONKPOST_KEY
3

Restart

Restart dsh so it picks up the tools, then ask it to list your Honkpost channels.

The key sits in that file. Keep the file private, and unplug the key in Connect AI if it leaks.

Harness is a developer preview, so its config keys may change.

If it goes wrong

It says Unauthorized. The connection was unplugged, or the key is wrong. Connect again from Connect AI.

It can’t see a channel. It only sees channels connected in Honkpost. Connect it in Settings → Channels. AI apps can’t do that part.

What it can do

Your AI writes it. We post it.

Once DeepSeek Harness is connected, posting is a sentence. Here's what happens after you send it.

Schedule a post about the new pricing for Friday at 10am on LinkedIn.

Done. I wrote it and scheduled it. Here it is:

01

Say it like you’d say it to a person

DeepSeek Harness turns "Schedule a post about the new pricing for Friday at 10am on LinkedIn." into a finished post on the right channels at the right time.

Every post comes back as a card: the text, the picture, the channel and the time. Change your mind and move it or cancel it.

One link. Every channel.

Connect your accounts in Honkpost once. From then on DeepSeek Harness can post to any of them.

Close the app. It still posts.

Scheduled posts live in Honkpost, not in the chat. They go out at their time whether the app is open or not.

Ask for the picture too

Describe it, or hand over a photo to edit. The image lands in your media library and on the post.

Let DeepSeek Harness do the posting.

Connect it once. Then posting is a sentence, and Honkpost handles the rest.
