SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Publishing the same post to Facebook, Threads, and Instagram means juggling three apps or Buffer's dashboard, reformatting copy per platform, and risking mistakes on public channels. This Skill centralizes publishing through the Buffer API with per-channel formatting and a mandatory preview-confirm gate before anything goes live. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Multi-channel publishing via Buffer: Post to Facebook, Threads, and Instagram from one workflow using your own Buffer access token and connected channels. - Per-channel formatting: Threads copy is checked against the 500-character cap and split into chunks; Instagram posts require a public image URL plus caption; Facebook takes full text with optional links. - Draft, publish, or schedule: Stage posts as Buffer drafts by default, publish immediately, or schedule for a specific ISO timestamp — always after an explicit user confirmation. - Use Case: You have a finished product announcement. The Skill formats it for each channel, shows you the exact copy with Threads character counts, and only after you say "yes" publishes it to all three channels, returning the Buffer post ID and status per channel. ## Quick Start Publish my finalized post to Facebook, Threads, and Instagram as Buffer drafts so I can review them before going live.

Frequently Asked Questions about social-publish-article

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I publish a post to Facebook, Threads, and Instagram at once?▼

Use the Buffer API with a single helper script that posts once per channel. Provide the final copy, pick target channels and mode (draft, now, or schedule), confirm the preview, and the script creates one Buffer post per channel, returning the post ID and status for each.

How to schedule social media posts with the Buffer API?▼

Pass mode schedule with an ISO 8601 due timestamp to the Buffer createPost mutation, which sets customScheduled mode. Buffer then performs the actual publish at that time, so no separate scheduler is needed.

Can I post text-only content to Instagram through Buffer?▼

No, Instagram rejects text-only posts through the Buffer API. You must supply a publicly reachable image URL plus a caption, and the Instagram account connected in Buffer must be a Business or Creator account.

What happens when Threads post text exceeds 500 characters?▼

Threads caps posts at 500 characters. Longer copy is split into chunks on sentence or paragraph boundaries and posted as separate Buffer posts, since the helper creates one post per call and does not chain a native reply-thread.

Why does Buffer publishing fail with a 401 error?▼

Buffer access tokens expire, and an expired token causes silent 401 authentication failures. Choose the longest token expiry offered when creating it in Buffer's developer settings and refresh it before it lapses.
