Boring Threads Publisher

Publish posts, multi-post threads, and replies on Threads. Powered by Boring.

Security & Data Handling

  • MCP link is a credential: Your MCP Server URL contains an embedded authentication token. Treat it like a password β€” do not share it publicly. Regenerate anytime in Settings.
  • Media uploads: Local files or URLs are uploaded to Boring's Google Cloud Storage to make them accessible for publishing. Social media APIs require publicly accessible media URLs.
  • Data flow: Your content and media are sent from Boring's server to Threads' API on your behalf via your connected OAuth token.
  • No local credentials: No local API keys or environment variables needed. All auth is embedded in the MCP link.

    • Prerequisites

    1. Sign up at boring.aiagent-me.com with Google 2. Connect Threads account via OAuth 3. Get your MCP link: Go to Settings β†’ copy your MCP Server URL (contains your auth token β€” treat it like a password) 4. Add to Claude: Paste the MCP link as a Connector β€” no install, no API key needed

    Workflow

    Step 1: List Accounts

    Call boring_list_accounts and filter for threads platform. Show connected accounts.

    Step 2: Determine Post Type

    Threads supports multiple content types:

    | Type | Description | Limit | |------|-------------|-------| | Text | Text-only post | 500 characters | | Photo | Single image | JPG/PNG/WEBP, max 8MB | | Carousel | Multi-image | 2-20 images (more than other platforms!) | | Video | Single video | MP4/MOV, max 512MB, 5 min | | Thread | Multi-post thread | Array of text posts, each up to 500 chars |

    Step 3: Choose the Right Tool

    Single post (text, photo, carousel, video) β†’ use boring_publish_post: 

    boring_publish_post(
  account_id="",
  platform="threads",
  text="Your post content",
  media_urls=["https://..."]  (optional)
)

    Multi-post thread (long-form content split into connected posts) β†’ use boring_publish_thread: 

    boring_publish_thread(
  account_id="",
  platform="threads",
  texts=["First post in thread", "Second post continues...", "Third post wraps up"],
  media_urls=["https://..."]  (optional, added to first post only)
)

    Reply to existing post β†’ use boring_reply_to_post_threads: 

    boring_reply_to_post_threads(
  account_id="",
  reply_to_id="",
  text="Your reply here",
  media_urls=["https://..."]  (optional, first URL only)
)

    Step 4: Handle Long Content

    If the user provides content longer than 500 characters: 1. Automatically split into multiple posts for a thread 2. Split at sentence boundaries when possible 3. Use boring_publish_thread with the array of texts 4. Inform the user: "Your content was split into X connected posts"

    Step 5: Prepare Media

  • Local files: boring_upload_file with file_path
  • URLs: boring_upload_from_url to re-host
  • Google Drive: Pass directly

    • Step 6: Publish and Report

    Show results:

  • Post ID(s) for each published post
  • Thread URL if it was a multi-post thread
  • Any errors encountered

    • Scheduling

    Add scheduled_at in ISO 8601 format to schedule: 

    boring_publish_post(..., scheduled_at="2025-12-25T10:00:00Z")
boring_publish_thread(..., scheduled_at="2025-12-25T10:00:00Z")

    Threads-Specific Notes

  • Text-only posts: Threads is one of the few platforms that supports pure text posts
  • Carousel limit: Up to 20 images (vs 10 on Instagram/Facebook)
  • Token: 60-day expiration with auto-refresh 5 days before expiry
  • Rate Limit: 250 calls/hour per user
  • Permissions: threads_basic, threads_content_publish, threads_manage_replies

    • Error Handling

    | Error | Solution | |-------|----------| | TextTooLong | Split into thread using boring_publish_thread | | InvalidCarouselSize | Carousel needs 2-20 images | | TokenExpired | Reconnect at boring.aiagent-me.com (rare due to auto-refresh) | | MediaTooLarge | Images max 8MB, videos max 512MB |
