# Threads MCP Server: Post to Threads from Claude or ChatGPT **Source:** https://posteverywhere.ai/mcp/threads --- Threads API # Threads MCP Server **PostEverywhere runs a hosted MCP server at `https://mcp.posteverywhere.ai`, and Threads is one of the 11 platforms it publishes to.** A Threads MCP server lets an AI assistant publish to Threads through the official Threads API. Connect the account once and the assistant can draft, schedule and publish without you opening the app. Threads is a text-first platform tied to an Instagram account, which makes it a natural pair with the two platforms most people already automate. A conversational take that would be too informal for LinkedIn and too long for X usually fits Threads well, and that is worth saying explicitly in the prompt. It is included on every plan from [$29/mo](https://posteverywhere.ai/pricing), alongside the [REST API](https://posteverywhere.ai/social-media-api). If you would rather schedule Threads from a dashboard, that is our [Threads scheduler](https://posteverywhere.ai/threads-scheduler). ## Connect it to your assistant One URL, no separate Threads credentials to manage. Connect the server once and every platform you have authorised, including Threads, becomes available to the assistant.

You describe the outcome and the assistant calls the tools: “Write a Threads post about why most "AI agent" tools are just schedulers with a chatbot, keep it conversational and under 400 characters, and schedule it for 8am tomorrow.” ## Threads specifics worth knowing ### Your Threads handle is your Instagram handle Threads is built on Instagram and the two share a username permanently. Changing one changes the other. ### Conversational beats polished Threads rewards a more informal register than LinkedIn or a brand feed. Ask for a conversational variant rather than reusing the LinkedIn copy. ### Text-only is fine Unlike Instagram, Threads does not require media, so a text post publishes on its own. ## Threads MCP server FAQs ### What is a Threads MCP server?
