Summary
A creator highlights Postiz, a free open-source social media scheduler with about 30,000 GitHub stars, whose standout feature is an agent CLI that lets an AI like Claude draft, queue, and schedule your posts without opening a dashboard. The self-hosted version is completely free with no missing features.
Core ideas
- An AI agent manages your accounts: the repo ships an agent CLI, so you can point Claude at it, tell it to schedule your week of posting, and it drafts and queues everything for you.
- The Buffer comparison: the speaker frames the agent CLI as the thing a tool like Buffer can't do, since there's no dashboard to open at all.
- One calendar, every platform: Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, and more all run from a single scheduling calendar.
- Analytics and AI writing built in: the tool includes analytics plus AI features for drafting posts, covering the standard scheduler checklist.
- Public API for automation: it plugs straight into n8n, Make, or Zapier, so it slots into existing automation workflows.
- Self-hosted with full features: the free open-source version runs on your own hardware with nothing locked behind a paywall.
- A new series called Sauce: the creator is putting viewers onto repos worth their time, and you comment "repo" to get the GitHub link.
