OpenPost CLI

The OpenPost CLI controls a running OpenPost instance from a terminal or automation job. It talks to the same /api/v1 HTTP API as the web app, authenticates with revocable API tokens, and never reads the server database directly.

Use it when you want to:

• Create drafts, scheduled posts, and threads from scripts
• Check account setup and supported post types
• Upload, inspect, update, and clean up media from a terminal
• Set a weekly posting schedule
• Manage workspaces, account names, jobs, and API tokens
• Use OpenPost from CI, cron, deploy scripts, or your terminal

Typical setup

openpost instance add local http://localhost:8080
openpost instance use local
openpost instance health
openpost auth login http://localhost:8080
openpost workspace use personal

Then inspect accounts and pass explicit selectors to posting commands:

openpost account list
openpost provider readiness
openpost post create --accounts main-x,linkedin --content "Hello from OpenPost" --schedule next-slot

OpenPost builds the command reference from the CLI code, so its commands and flags stay up to date.
