A1 Lane MCP Server

A1 Lane is a social publishing service with its own queue, scheduler and delivery receipts. Through this connector an assistant can list the user's connected accounts, check each platform's posting rules and options, bring in media the user supplies, write and schedule drafts or a week of posts at once, send drafts for approval, read receipts and verification status, fix what failed, take a post down, and read engagement. It never publishes past an approval state or an uncertain outcome.

Draft-first tools for YouTube, X, Bluesky, Mastodon, Discord and Telegram, plus LinkedIn personal profiles; Facebook Pages, Instagram, Threads, TikTok and Pinterest remain unavailable to new accounts until their platform approvals are granted and A1 Lane enables them.

Listing in this directory is not an approval by any social platform. LinkedIn Community Management access (for Company Pages) is a separate permission still in review; personal-profile connections are available today.

This repository is the public home of the registry record (server.json), the tool inventory (TOOLS.md) and client packaging. The A1 Lane service itself is hosted and is not distributed here.

Delivery receipts

Every post gets a delivery receipt for each destination it was sent to. Where the platform offers a way to read the post back, A1 Lane checks it on the platform before marking that destination live. Where it doesn't (Telegram, for example), the receipt records the platform's send response instead and the destination is marked Delivered (limited). Read-back is per platform, not universal.

YouTube is fully available, including public uploads. Taking a YouTube video down is a hand-off by design: A1 Lane points you to the video so you delete it in YouTube yourself; it does not delete YouTube videos from inside the product.

Connect

• Endpoint: https://a1lane.ai/mcp/v1 (Streamable HTTP)
• Sign-in: OAuth 2.1 with PKCE (S256). Your client opens a1lane.ai, you sign in and approve one workspace and its scopes, and you're back in your client. A workspace token (plt_…) also works for developer setups.
• Official MCP Registry: ai.a1lane/a1lane

Exact, current steps per client (kept on one page so they can't drift here):

Tools

26 tools in contract v1.8; your token's scope decides which you see (read 14, read + write 21, read + write + publish 26). Each tool's one-line purpose below is its title followed by the opening line of the description the server itself serves in tools/list. Full list with annotations: TOOLS.md and https://a1lane.ai/docs/mcp.

Tool	What it does
cancel_scheduled	Cancel a scheduled post. Use when the user asks to cancel, stop or unschedule a queued or scheduled post.
create_draft	Create a draft post. Use when the user asks to write, prepare, cross-post or set up a social media post, video, carousel or thread, including one post going to several accounts: that is one draft with one destination per account.
create_upload_link	Create a file upload link. Use when the user wants to post a video or photo from their phone or computer that has no public link.
delete_draft	Delete a post record. Use only to delete A1 Lane's own record of a post: this does NOT remove anything from any social platform, and a live post stays live.
get_batch_status	Check a batch's delivery. Use when the user asks how a batch of posts or a bulk schedule is going.
get_best_times	Get best times to post. Use when the user asks when to post or what time to schedule on one account.
get_delivery_digest	Summarize recent deliveries. Use when the user asks what went out, how their posting went today or this week, or for a recap or status update.
get_engagement_coverage	See which metrics each platform reports. Use when the user asks why a metric is missing or which numbers are available for a platform.
get_engagement_rollup	Get engagement totals. Use when the user asks how their accounts or posts did over a period, for engagement totals, or for a performance report.
get_handoff_pack	Get steps to finish a post in-app. Use when the user asks how to finish a post in the platform's own app, or what a needs-attention post is waiting on.
get_platform_schema	Get a platform's posting rules. Use before writing or scheduling a post, or when the user asks what a platform allows: caption length, video and image limits, how many images a carousel takes, whether threads and first comments work there, disclosure flags, and every per-post option with its type and allowed values (for example YouTube title, privacy, tags, category and made-for-kids designation, Pinterest board, Mastodon content warning).
get_post_engagement	Get a post's engagement. Use when the user asks how a post performed: its views, likes, comments, shares or stats.
get_receipt	Get a post's delivery receipt. Use when the user asks whether a specific post went out, where it is live, what its link is, or what happened to it.
get_upload_status	Check an upload link. Use after create_upload_link to see whether the user's file has arrived.
get_verification_status	Check if posts are verified live. Use when the user asks whether their posts actually went live, or wants a post they just published double-checked.
list_accounts	List connected social accounts. Use when the user asks which social media accounts are connected, which account to post to, whether an account needs reconnecting, or how to connect a new one.
list_attention_items	List posts that need attention. Use when the user asks what needs fixing, why a post failed, what went wrong, or what is waiting on them.
list_posts	List and filter posts. Use when the user asks to see their posts: drafts, what is scheduled or queued, what was published, or what failed.
pause_workspace	Pause or resume publishing. Use when the user asks to stop all posting for now, put publishing on hold, or start again.
request_approval	Send a draft for approval. Use when the user asks to send a draft to their team, client or manager for review or sign-off before it is posted.
resolve_attention	Fix a delivery problem. Use when the user asks to fix, retry or re-send a failed post, or to clear an item from list_attention_items.
schedule_draft	Publish or schedule a draft. Use when the user asks to post, publish or share a saved draft: right now, at a specific date and time, or in an account's next free posting slot.
submit_batch	Create many posts at once. Use when the user wants several different posts set up at once: a week of content, a content calendar or a bulk schedule.
unpublish_post	Delete a live post from platforms. Use when the user asks to take a published post down or delete it from a platform.
update_draft_settings	Edit a draft or scheduled post. Use when the user asks to change a draft or a scheduled post before it starts delivering: its caption, media, accounts, per-platform options (for example YouTube privacy or tags), scheduled time, thread parts, first comment or UTM tags.
upload_media	Import media from a link. Use when the user gives a public https link to a video or image file they want to post.

Tools that send or remove something are annotated as destructive, so clients that honour MCP tool annotations ask you to confirm first.
