BrainyShorts is a free publishing control plane. You connect your social accounts once in the dashboard. After that, an agent can upload finished media and publish or schedule posts without ever holding a platform token.

BrainyShorts does not generate media. Your agent, your runner, or your own tooling makes the images, video, or article; BrainyShorts stores it, schedules it, and hands it to each platform.

## Addresses

Everything lives on one host, `www.brainyshorts.com`. Don't configure `api.brainyshorts.com`: it only exists as a fallback for REST calls and doesn't serve MCP or OAuth.

| What | Address |
| --- | --- |
| REST API | `https://www.brainyshorts.com/api/cli` |
| Agent runner API | `https://www.brainyshorts.com/api/agent` |
| OpenAPI spec | `https://www.brainyshorts.com/openapi.json` |
| Hosted MCP server | `https://www.brainyshorts.com/api/mcp` |
| CLI | `npm install -g brainy-shorts` (binary `brainy`) |
| API keys | `https://www.brainyshorts.com/dashboard/api-keys` |

## Pick an interface

**[MCP server](/mcp)**

Best for Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, and other MCP clients. OAuth sign-in, no key to paste.

**[REST API](/api)**

Plain HTTPS with a Bearer key. Works from any language or agent framework.

**[CLI](/cli)**

`brainy` wraps the REST API for shell scripts and coding agents.

**[Scheduled runs](/automations)**

BrainyShorts schedules the work and your own runner does it.
