Content Distribution
/install automatelab-content-distribution
content-distribution
Pairs with the @automatelab/content-distribution-mcp server. Publishes content to 8+ channels with automatic platform-specific adaptation, idempotent state tracking, and per-community anti-spam enforcement.
What the MCP handles vs. what you handle
MCP handles: OAuth, API retries, scheduling, idempotency, character limits, platform constraints, posting state.
You handle: Writing the platform-specific copy variants (title, body, tags, tone per channel). The MCP returns per-channel hints to guide you.
Tool overview
| Tool | Use when |
|---|---|
distribute_content |
Publish to one or more channels in a single call — the main entry point |
get_channel_hints |
Get character limits, tag vocabularies, cooldowns, and formatting rules before writing variants |
get_distribution_status |
Check what went live where; retry failed channels |
schedule_distribution |
Queue a post for future publish (e.g. "post this tomorrow at 9am UTC") |
list_scheduled |
View and manage queued posts |
cancel_scheduled |
Remove a queued post |
get_platform_config |
Inspect current auth / API key status per platform |
test_connection |
Verify credentials before a real publish |
Default workflow
1. get_channel_hints(platforms: ["reddit", "twitter", "linkedin", ...])
→ Read limits, cooldowns, flair options
2. (You) Draft platform-specific copy variants based on the hints
3. distribute_content({
devto: { title, body_markdown, tags },
twitter: { text },
reddit: { subreddit, title, text, flair_id },
linkedin: { text },
...
})
4. get_distribution_status(id) → confirm each channel succeeded
Idempotency
Every distribute_content call returns a distribution_id. Calling it again with the same id and same targets is a no-op — safe to retry after a partial failure.
