Social0 CLI

Publish, schedule, and manage Social0 posts from your terminal with the official social0 CLI.

Overview

The Social0 CLI (social0) is a thin terminal client for the Social0 REST API. Use it for scripts, CI, and day-to-day posting from the command line.

	CLI	MCP	REST API
Best for	Terminal, scripts, CI	AI chat hosts	Custom backends
Package	`social0`	`@social0/mcp`	HTTP at `/v1`
Auth	`sk_live_…` via `social0 login` or env	OAuth (remote) or API key (local)	Bearer `sk_live_…`

Same publish pipeline and plan limits as the dashboard. Connect platforms in the dashboard first — the CLI does not replace Connections.

Auth in one glance

Method	How
Interactive	`social0 login` (masked prompt)
Stdin	`echo "sk_live_..." \| social0 login`
Env (CI)	`SOCIAL0_API_KEY=sk_live_...` — not written to disk

Credentials use the OS keychain when available (macOS Keychain / Linux Secret Service / Windows Credential Manager). Otherwise they fall back to ~/.social0/ with mode 0600.

Tips

Prefer the CLI for terminal, CI, and AI agents with shell access; use MCP when the AI host only supports MCP connectors (no reliable shell).
Run social0 doctor if auth or API connectivity looks wrong.
Free and paid plans use the same CLI — free still has the same post limits as the dashboard.
