Contract Snapshot: 66 Agent API operations · 56 MCP tools Version: 1.7.0 | Status: Production | Updated: 2026-02-28 Citedy is a backend service for AI agents. Connect once, configure defaults in the web UI, and let any agent — OpenClaw, Claude Code, Cursor, ChatGPT, or any MCP-compatible client — write posts, generate images, publish to social platforms, scan trends, and produce short-form video. The web UI is for settings and scheduling review. The agent does the work.

Who Is This For

  • Vibe-coders and solo founders who already use AI agents daily
  • Micro-companies that want content automation without agency overhead
  • Developers building agent workflows on top of a reliable content + publish API
Not for: agencies, enterprise, or anyone who wants a web chat interface.

These commands describe the full Agent API surface. Public MCP v1 intentionally exposes a smaller tool set (see below).

MCP v1 Tool Surface (Public)

MCP v1 is outcome-first. The goal is to expose stable high-value workflows, not every internal pipeline step.
