Supports privacy controls, interaction settings (comments, duet, stitch), and commercial content disclosure.</p>\n<h2>Prerequisites</h2>\n<p><strong>Plans:</strong> Works on the free Starter plan. Current limits and pricing: <a href=\"https://publora.com/pricing\">publora.com/pricing</a>.</p>\n<h3>Getting Started</h3>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Create account</strong> at <a href=\"https://publora.com/register\">publora.com/register</a> (free)</li>\n<li><strong>Connect TikTok</strong> via OAuth in <a href=\"https://app.publora.com/dashboard\">Publora Dashboard</a></li>\n<li><strong>Get API key</strong> at <a href=\"https://app.publora.com/dashboard/api\">app.publora.com/dashboard/api</a></li>\n<li><strong>Connect your agent</strong> to the MCP server at <code>https://mcp.publora.com</code>, authenticating with <code>Authorization: Bearer sk_YOUR_API_KEY</code>. In Claude Code:</li>\n</ol>\n<pre><code>claude mcp add publora --transport http https://mcp.publora.com \\\n  --header \"Authorization: Bearer sk_YOUR_API_KEY\"\n</code></pre>\n<p>Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex, OpenClaw and the claude.ai connector each need a different config file or flow: see <a href=\"https://docs.publora.com/mcp/client-setup\">client setup</a> for the exact path and snippet.</p>\n<h3>REST API Fallback</h3>\n<p>If the MCP server is unavailable or returns errors, use the REST API directly:</p>\n<p><strong>Base URL:</strong> <code>https://api.publora.com/api/v1</code></p>\n<p><strong>Authentication:</strong> Use <code>x-publora-key</code> header (NOT <code>Authorization: Bearer</code>):</p>\n<pre><code># Get your connected platforms\ncurl -X GET \"https://api.publora.com/api/v1/platform-connections\" \\\n  -H \"x-publora-key: sk_your_api_key\"\n\n# Create a post\ncurl -X POST \"https://api.publora.com/api/v1/create-post\" \\\n  -H \"x-publora-key: sk_your_api_key\" \\\n  -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" \\\n  -d '{\n    \"platforms\": [\"tiktok-99887766\"],\n    \"content\": \"Video caption here #hashtag\",\n    \"scheduledTime\": \"2026-03-25T10:00:00Z\",\n    \"platformSettings\": {\n      \"tiktok\": {\n        \"viewerSetting\": \"PUBLIC_TO_EVERYONE\",\n        \"allowComments\": true\n      }\n    }\n  }'\n</code></pre>\n<p><strong>Platform ID Format:</strong> <code>tiktok-{id}</code> where <code>{id}</code> is from <code>/platform-connections</code> response.</p>\n<p>Example IDs: <code>tiktok-99887766</code>, <code>tiktok-123456789</code></p>\n<p>\uD83D\uDCD6 <strong>Full API documentation:</strong> <a href=\"https://docs.publora.com\">docs.publora.com</a></p>\n<h2>Platform Limits (API vs Native App)</h2>\n<p><strong>Critical API limits that differ from native TikTok app:</strong></p>\n<h3>Video Requirements</h3>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Specification</th>\n<th>API Limit</th>\n<th>Native App</th>\n</tr>\n</thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Max duration</strong></td>\n<td><strong>10 minutes</strong></td>\n<td>60 minutes</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Min duration</td>\n<td>3 seconds</td>\n<td>3 seconds</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Max file size</td>\n<td>4 GB</td>\n<td>4 GB</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Min frame rate</td>\n<td><strong>23 FPS</strong></td>\n<td>23 FPS</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Formats</td>\n<td>MP4, MOV, WebM</td>\n<td>MP4, MOV, WebM</td>\n</tr>\n</tbody>\n</table>\n<h3>Caption Limits</h3>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Element</th>\n<th>API Limit</th>\n<th>Native App</th>\n</tr>\n</thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Caption length</td>\n<td><strong>2,200 characters</strong></td>\n<td>4,000 characters</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Hashtags</td>\n<td>Included in caption count</td>\n<td>Included in caption count</td>\n</tr>\n</tbody>\n</table>\n<h3>Rate Limits</h3>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Limit</th>\n<th>Value</th>\n</tr>\n</thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Posts per day</td>\n<td>15-20</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Videos per minute</td>\n<td>Max 2</td>\n</tr>\n</tbody>\n</table>\n<h2>Available Tools</h2>\n<h3>create_post</h3>\n<p>Create a new TikTok post.</p>\n<p><strong>Parameters:</strong></p>\n<ul>\n<li><code>platforms</code>: Array with your TikTok connection ID (e.g., <code>[\"tiktok-99887766\"]</code>)</li>\n<li><code>content</code>: Video caption (up to 2,200 characters)</li>\n<li><code>scheduledTime</code>: ISO 8601 UTC datetime. <strong>Optional</strong>: omit it and the post is created as a draft. Send a future time to schedule. A time five or more minutes in the past is rejected with <code>SCHEDULED_TIME_IN_PAST</code>, so for immediate posting use the current time plus a minute.</li>\n<li><code>mediaUrls</code>: up to 10 public <strong>https</strong> image or video URLs. Publora downloads them server-side and attaches them <em>before</em> validation, so media and scheduling happen in one call. This is the one-shot alternative to the draft then <code>get_upload_url</code> then <code>complete_media</code> flow. Ingestion is rate-limited to 60 URLs per hour.</li>\n</ul>\n<h3>get_upload_url</h3>\n<p>Get presigned URL for video upload.</p>\n<p><strong>Parameters:</strong></p>\n<ul>\n<li><code>postGroupId</code>: Post ID to attach video to</li>\n<li><code>fileName</code>: Video file name (e.g., \"video.mp4\")</li>\n<li><code>contentType</code>: <code>video/mp4</code>, <code>video/quicktime</code>, or <code>video/webm</code></li>\n<li><code>type</code>: <code>\"video\"</code></li>\n</ul>\n<h3>complete_media</h3>\n<p>Finalize a file uploaded through <code>get_upload_url</code>, after the presigned <code>PUT</code> succeeds. Optional, because scheduling also finalizes pending media, but calling it early surfaces format and probe errors before publish. Not needed for media attached with <code>mediaUrls</code>.</p>\n<p><strong>Parameters:</strong></p>\n<ul>\n<li><code>mediaId</code>: the id returned by <code>get_upload_url</code></li>\n</ul>\n<h3>list_connections</h3>\n<p>List your connected accounts with their platform IDs. Call this first and copy the IDs verbatim; they are never guessable.</p>\n<h3>list_posts / get_post / update_post / delete_post</h3>\n<p>Manage scheduled and draft posts. <code>update_post</code> also patches <code>content</code> and <code>platforms</code> on a draft or scheduled post, so fixing a typo or retargeting no longer means delete and recreate. <code>delete_media</code> and <code>prune_media_reference</code> clean up uploaded files.</p>\n<h2>Platform Settings (via REST API)</h2>\n<p>TikTok has 7 platform-specific settings controlled via <code>platformSettings</code>:</p>\n<pre><code>{\n  \"platformSettings\": {\n    \"tiktok\": {\n      \"viewerSetting\": \"PUBLIC_TO_EVERYONE\",\n      \"allowComments\": true,\n      \"allowDuet\": false,\n      \"allowStitch\": false,\n      \"commercialContent\": false,\n      \"brandOrganic\": false,\n      \"brandedContent\": false\n    }\n  }\n}\n</code></pre>\n<h3>Viewer Settings (Required)</h3>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Value</th>\n<th>Description</th>\n</tr>\n</thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><code>PUBLIC_TO_EVERYONE</code></td>\n<td>Anyone can view (default)</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><code>MUTUAL_FOLLOW_FRIENDS</code></td>\n<td>Only mutual followers</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><code>FOLLOWER_OF_CREATOR</code></td>\n<td>Only your followers</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><code>SELF_ONLY</code></td>\n<td>Only you (draft-like)</td>\n</tr>\n</tbody>\n</table>\n<h3>Interaction Settings</h3>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Setting</th>\n<th>Default</th>\n<th>Description</th>\n</tr>\n</thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><code>allowComments</code></td>\n<td><code>true</code></td>\n<td>Whether viewers can comment</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><code>allowDuet</code></td>\n<td><code>false</code></td>\n<td>Whether viewers can create Duets</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><code>allowStitch</code></td>\n<td><code>false</code></td>\n<td>Whether viewers can Stitch</td>\n</tr>\n</tbody>\n</table>\n<h3>Commercial Content Settings</h3>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Setting</th>\n<th>Default</th>\n<th>Description</th>\n</tr>\n</thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><code>commercialContent</code></td>\n<td><code>false</code></td>\n<td>Is this commercial content?</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><code>brandOrganic</code></td>\n<td><code>false</code></td>\n<td>Organic brand promotion</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><code>brandedContent</code></td>\n<td><code>false</code></td>\n<td>Paid partnership/sponsored</td>\n</tr>\n</tbody>\n</table>\n<p><strong>Note:</strong> If <code>commercialContent</code> is <code>true</code>, at least one of <code>brandOrganic</code> or <code>brandedContent</code> must also be <code>true</code>.</p>\n<p>Note: <code>platformSettings</code> is accepted by the MCP <code>create_post</code> and <code>update_post</code> tools as well as over REST. The schema is <strong>strict</strong>: a mistyped platform or key is rejected with a validation error rather than silently dropped.</p>\n<h2>Critical Restrictions</h2>\n<h3>1. Unaudited Apps = PRIVATE Only</h3>\n<p><strong>CRITICAL:</strong> If your TikTok app hasn't passed TikTok's review process, you can <strong>ONLY post PRIVATE videos</strong> (<code>SELF_ONLY</code>). All other <code>viewerSetting</code> values will be overridden to <code>SELF_ONLY</code>.</p>\n<p>To post public videos, your app must be audited by TikTok.</p>\n<h3>2. Media Required, Video or Image Carousel</h3>\n<p>TikTok does NOT support text-only posts: every post needs media.</p>\n<p>It does take <strong>image carousels</strong>: up to 35 images, JPEG, PNG or WebP, 20 MB each. A post is either a carousel or a single video, never both.</p>\n<h3>3. Minimum 23 FPS</h3>\n<p>Videos below 23 frames per second will be rejected by TikTok.</p>\n<h2>Examples</h2>\n<h3>Basic Video Post</h3>\n<pre><code>Post this video to TikTok:\n\"How we built our startup in 60 seconds #startup #tech #coding\"\n</code></pre>\n<h3>Private Draft (Testing)</h3>\n<pre><code>Upload this video as a private draft to TikTok (only I can see it):\n\"Testing new content format\"\n</code></pre>\n<p>Use <code>viewerSetting: \"SELF_ONLY\"</code> for testing before making public.</p>\n<h3>Branded Content</h3>\n<pre><code>Post this sponsored video to TikTok with proper disclosure:\n\"Loving this new product from @brand! #ad #sponsored\"\n</code></pre>\n<p>Set <code>commercialContent: true</code> and <code>brandedContent: true</code> for paid partnerships.</p>\n<h3>Scheduled Post</h3>\n<pre><code>Schedule this TikTok video for tomorrow at 6 PM:\n\"Weekend vibes incoming! #weekend #fun\"\n</code></pre>\n<h2>Supported Video Formats</h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Format</th>\n<th>Recommended</th>\n<th>Notes</th>\n</tr>\n</thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>MP4</td>\n<td>Yes</td>\n<td>Most reliable</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>MOV</td>\n<td>Yes</td>\n<td>Apple format</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>WebM</td>\n<td>Yes</td>\n<td>Web format</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>AVI</td>\n<td>Accepted by Publora</td>\n<td>May be rejected by TikTok</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>MKV</td>\n<td>Accepted by Publora</td>\n<td>May be rejected by TikTok</td>\n</tr>\n</tbody>\n</table>\n<p><strong>Recommendation:</strong> Use MP4 for best compatibility.</p>\n<h2>Best Practices</h2>\n<h3>Content</h3>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Hook in first 3 seconds</strong>: Grab attention immediately</li>\n<li><strong>Optimal length</strong>: 15-60 seconds for best engagement</li>\n<li><strong>Trending sounds</strong>: Use trending audio when possible</li>\n<li><strong>Hashtag strategy</strong>: 3-5 relevant hashtags</li>\n</ol>\n<h3>Technical</h3>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Vertical video</strong>: 9:16 aspect ratio performs best</li>\n<li><strong>High quality</strong>: At least 720p resolution</li>\n<li><strong>23+ FPS</strong>: Ensure smooth playback</li>\n<li><strong>MP4 format</strong>: Most reliable format</li>\n</ol>\n<h3>Timing</h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Best times</strong>: 7-9 AM, 12-3 PM, 7-11 PM in target timezone</li>\n<li><strong>Frequency</strong>: 1-3 posts per day for growth</li>\n<li><strong>Consistency</strong>: Regular posting schedule helps algorithm</li>\n</ul>\n<h2>Troubleshooting</h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Error</th>\n<th>Cause</th>\n<th>Solution</th>\n</tr>\n</thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><code>unaudited_client_can_only_post_to_private_accounts</code></td>\n<td>App not approved</td>\n<td>Submit app for TikTok review or use <code>SELF_ONLY</code></td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><code>spam_risk_too_many_posts</code></td>\n<td>Daily limit reached</td>\n<td>Wait 24 hours</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><code>duration_check_failed</code></td>\n<td>Video too long/short</td>\n<td>Ensure 3 seconds to 10 minutes</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><code>file_format_check_failed</code></td>\n<td>Wrong video format</td>\n<td>Use MP4, MOV, or WebM</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\"23 FPS required\"</td>\n<td>Low frame rate</td>\n<td>Re-encode video at 23+ FPS</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\"TikTok requires selecting who can view\"</td>\n<td>Missing viewerSetting</td>\n<td>Always include <code>viewerSetting</code> in platformSettings</td>\n</tr>\n</tbody>\n</table>\n","files":[{"path":"SKILL.md","sizeBytes":9649,"isText":true}],"reviewScore":null,"reviewSummary":null,"trust":{"provenance":"trusted-source-unreviewed","notice":"Community-authored content, reproduced verbatim and not vetted as instructions.
