Post this photo to Instagram tonight at 8pm.
Post to social media from OpenClaw
Message OpenClaw from WhatsApp, Telegram or Slack, and it posts through Honkpost.
- Sign in. No key to copy.
- ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
Just ask
Tell OpenClaw 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 OpenClaw 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.
3 steps. Then just ask.
- OpenClaw running
- A Honkpost account with a channel connected

Written from OpenClaw’s MCP docs (2026-10-23). Apps move their menus. If a step doesn't match, tell us at support@honkpost.com.
Add Honkpost as an MCP server
Add this to ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json (merge it with what’s there).
{
"mcp": {
"servers": {
"honkpost": {
"url": "https://honkpost.com/api/mcp",
"transport": "streamable-http",
"auth": "oauth"
}
}
}
}Sign in
Stop the Gateway first (this login only runs offline), run this, sign in to Honkpost and click Allow, then start the Gateway again. Admins can also use Sign in under Settings → MCP.
openclaw mcp login honkpost
Check it
Honkpost should be in the list. Then message OpenClaw: "what are my Honkpost channels?"
openclaw mcp list
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.
Your AI writes it. We post it.
Once OpenClaw is connected, posting is a sentence. Here's what happens after you send it.
Post this photo to Instagram tonight at 8pm.
Done. I wrote it and scheduled it. Here it is:
Say it like you’d say it to a person
OpenClaw turns "Post this photo to Instagram tonight at 8pm." into a finished post on the right channels at the right time.
Nothing goes out unchecked
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 OpenClaw can post to any of them.
See every channelClose 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.

What’s going out tomorrow?
Let OpenClaw do the posting.
Connect it once. Then posting is a sentence, and Honkpost handles the rest.
