What can you do with Cursor and Publer?


Once enabled, Publer's MCP tools will be available to Cursor Agent. Cursor can use them automatically when they are relevant to your request.


For example, you can ask Cursor to:


  • Create posts, drafts, and content ideas.
  • Schedule or AutoSchedule posts for one or multiple social accounts.
  • Upload and use media from your Publer Media Library.
  • Add supported post options such as first comments, follow-up comments, AutoShare, watermarks, signatures, locations, labels, albums, and Pinterest boards.
  • View your connected social accounts, workspaces, scheduled posts, drafts, published posts, and media.
  • Edit or delete supported Publer content.
  • Check analytics and recent social media performance.
  • Generate captions, content ideas, and publishing suggestions before creating or scheduling posts.


For example:


Create a Facebook post about our upcoming event, use a relevant image from my Publer Media Library, and save it as a draft.


Or:


Create 5 Instagram posts and AutoSchedule them for next week.


Or:


Show me my recent LinkedIn performance and suggest 3 new post ideas based on the results.


Cursor will use Publer's MCP tools based on the permissions available to your account and the features supported by each social network.


Keep in mind


  • Cursor can only perform actions supported by Publer's MCP.
  • The same social network requirements and limitations that apply when using Publer directly also apply when using Cursor.
  • Always review the social account, content, and scheduling details before publishing important posts.
