Skills

Install Chirpie skills so Claude Code and other AI coding agents know how to use Chirpie automatically.

Skills teach AI coding agents (like Claude Code) how to use the Chirpie API without any manual prompting. Once installed, just ask your agent to post, schedule, or manage your social accounts.

Setup

1. Authenticate

Install the CLI and log in (opens a browser, and if you're already signed in it's instant):

npm install -g chirpie
chirpie login

2. Install Skills

In Claude Code, the plugin installs the skills and the hosted MCP server together:

/plugin marketplace add Firefloco/chirpie-skills
/plugin install chirpie@chirpie-skills

For any other agent:

npx skills add Firefloco/chirpie-skills

Select all chirpie-* skills when prompted, or just chirpie for the router that dispatches to the right one.

Available Skills

SkillDescription
chirpieRouter that automatically selects the right skill based on your task
chirpie-setupInstall SDK, configure API keys, connect accounts
chirpie-postingCreate posts and threads, list, delete, view analytics
chirpie-schedulingSchedule content for future publishing
chirpie-sdkTypeScript SDK reference and examples
chirpie-cliCLI commands and authentication
chirpie-mcpMCP server setup for Claude, Cursor, etc.
chirpie-openclawOpenClaw setup: skill install, MCP wiring, agent guardrails

OpenClaw

OpenClaw installs skills from a Git source:

openclaw skills install git:Firefloco/chirpie-skills
openclaw skills install git:Firefloco/chirpie-skills --global

Set CHIRPIE_API_KEY in the agent's environment. The chirpie-openclaw skill only loads once the key is present. See Give your OpenClaw agent a social media account.

Example Prompts

Once installed, ask your AI coding agent:

  • "Post to X: Just shipped a new feature!"
  • "Post to Instagram with this screenshot"
  • "Post to our Facebook Page about the launch"
  • "Create a thread about TypeScript best practices"
  • "Schedule a post for tomorrow at 9am"
  • "Show me analytics for my last post"
  • "Set up the Chirpie MCP server"
  • "Add Chirpie to my project"

How It Works

The chirpie router skill examines your request and dispatches to the appropriate sub-skill. You don't need to know which skill handles what; just describe what you want to do.

Skills are read-only documentation that give your agent the context it needs to call the Chirpie API correctly, including endpoint details, request/response formats, error handling, and rate limits.

Authentication

Skills use the same credentials as the CLI and MCP server:

  1. CHIRPIE_API_KEY environment variable (if set)
  2. ~/.chirpie/config.json (created by chirpie login)

One chirpie login authenticates the CLI, MCP server, and skills.
