Can GitHub Copilot post to social media?

Yes. With xpost added as an MCP server, Copilot in agent mode can draft and schedule posts for 9 networks. You approve each one before it goes out.

Do I need an API key for Copilot?

No. VS Code opens the xpost sign-in page in your browser; you log in once. End the connection any time from Settings.

Is it safe to let an editor agent post for me?

It is, because it cannot post on its own. Its posts wait in your approval queue, your brand rules are checked first, and no key can approve a post.

Does this cost extra?

No. The connector is included in every xpost plan, with no extra fee and no usage meter.

Post to social media from GitHub Copilot.

Add xpost as an MCP server, sign in once, and ask Copilot in agent mode for the post — so the release note and the launch post are written in the same place.

Your first post is free. No credit card.

In the chat

Ask Copilot. Approve the post.

Copilot writes the drafts and creates the post in your approval queue. Nothing goes out until you approve it — then each account gets its own receipt.

Set up xpost in GitHub Copilot

Three steps, about two minutes. No keys to copy for the chat clients: you sign in once.

1
Add the MCP server
In VS Code, add this address to your MCP servers, where Copilot keeps the tools it is allowed to call.
https://xpost.to/api/mcp
2
Sign in to xpost
A browser window opens on the xpost sign-in page. Log in once and the connection is made.
3
Ask in agent mode
Open Copilot Chat in agent mode and say what you want, for which accounts and when. Approve it from the link it gives you, or in your queue.

What you can do with GitHub Copilot

Do everything you can do in xpost, just by asking. Your approval and brand rules still apply.

Write and schedule posts

Ask for a post for one or more accounts, now or at a time you choose, in the right shape for each network.

Announce a release

Copilot already knows what changed. Ask it to turn the release into a post for each network.

Check your brand rules first

It can run a draft against your rules before it creates anything.

Read the receipts

Ask where a post landed and it reads the receipt, account by account, with the links.

Read your numbers

Reach, likes, comments, your best posts and your best hours — it can read them all.

Nothing publishes without you

Every post GitHub Copilot creates waits for your approval. Nothing goes live until you approve it.

Other assistants

The same connector, the same approval, the same receipts in every one of them.
