{"body":"BlackTwist, a social media scheduling platform built for Meta's Threads, has launched an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that connects users' Threads accounts directly to AI assistants including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, and VS Code. The integration allows creators to manage their Threads presence entirely through natural language — scheduling posts, retrieving analytics, managing drafts, rescheduling content, and configuring auto-replies — without leaving their existing tools or editor environment. Setup takes roughly 30 seconds: generate an API key in BlackTwist's settings, paste it into the AI tool's MCP configuration, and begin issuing commands.\n\nThe launch shows a vertical SaaS product treating Anthropic's Model Context Protocol as its main way to connect with users — making BlackTwist's scheduling and analytics features available to AI agents without requiring any code. BlackTwist isn't alone in the approach; <a href=\"/news/2026-03-15-site-spy-mcp-server-webpage-monitoring\">MCP adoption has accelerated sharply</a> among developer-facing SaaS tools since Anthropic opened the spec in late 2024.\n\nBlackTwist was built by Luca Restagno and Mattia (who goes by one name), and currently serves over 3,100 creators and companies. The platform targets Threads, which Meta reported has 400 million monthly active users as of Q2 2025, and also supports Bluesky. The MCP server is included on all plans, including the free tier, though some advanced analytics features require a paid subscription. Security controls allow users to issue separate API keys per AI tool, view last-used timestamps, and revoke access instantly — giving creators granular control over what their AI assistants can do on their behalf.","linkedSlugs":["2026-03-15-site-spy-mcp-server-webpage-monitoring"]}
