statuzCLI. Schedule posts and threads from your terminal. Free.- Four platforms. X, Bluesky, Mastodon and, new, LinkedIn, from one post.
- Agents. Claude Code, Codex and Cursor post for you over MCP.
- Install anywhere. Homebrew, npm, Bun or a shell script, on macOS and Linux. Install.
- Agent setup.
statuz initconnects your agent apps;statuz mcpserves every command over MCP. Agents and MCP. - Plain-word times.
--at "tomorrow 9am"or"fri 17:30", in your time zone. - Checked before it's saved. Every post is checked against every platform's limits when you write it, not at publish time.
- Link cards. On Bluesky and LinkedIn a link shows as a card with its title and image. A link that ends the post becomes the card, out of the text.
- Never posts twice. Failures retry after 1, 5 and 15 minutes; a half-sent thread resumes where it stopped. Posts that miss their time by more than an hour wait for you.
- Local runtime. Data in
~/.statuz, tokens in the OS keychain, a daemon (statuz start) on macOS and Linux. - Statuz Cloud. Always-on publishing from our servers, workspaces with roles and email invites, a web composer, API keys and pay-per-post credits. Photos too big for a platform are shrunk for it. Local or Cloud.
- Move to Cloud. In the Mac app, move a post to Statuz Cloud from its menu, or all of them from Settings.
- Send feedback from
statuz feedback, the Mac app's Help menu or the menu bar. It reaches us with what you were doing.
Changed

- No licenses. Scheduling, multiple accounts and MCP, Premium in Statuz 1, are free on your own computer now.
- Your own app keys. X and LinkedIn need your own developer apps when you run locally; Statuz Cloud brings its own. See Accounts.
