How to publish WordPress from Claude Desktop

If you already added ClipSpeed on claude.ai it is already in the desktop app. Otherwise add it in the desktop app's connector settings; it is the same URL and the same sign-in. Connect WordPress in ClipSpeed, then describe the post. Setup takes about a minute.

setup once, then just ask

# One-time setup: Claude Desktop → Settings → Connectors
https://api.clipspeed.ai/mcp

# Then ask Claude Desktop:
> Publish the article on the main site Tuesday 8am under News
Claude Desktop: Preview — nothing booked yet. WordPress — title. Book it?

Connectors are account-level. Adding on the desktop makes it available on the web and mobile too.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector.
Name it ClipSpeed, paste https://api.clipspeed.ai/mcp, save, then Connect and approve the ClipSpeed sign-in.
Start a new chat and enable ClipSpeed in the tools menu.
Connect WordPress in the ClipSpeed app, or ask Claude Desktop for a connect link: it is private, valid for ten minutes, and WordPress signs you in itself.

What can Claude Desktop do on WordPress?

On WordPress, Claude Desktop can publish posts with a featured image, categories and tags to your WordPress sites. Every booking runs through the same rules as the ClipSpeed app.

Text and Image posts

WordPress takes text and image through ClipSpeed. Image: a featured image by URL.

Limits checked at booking

No fixed text limit. Titles are required.

Exact time or refused

Name the minute and Claude Desktop books it, or you are told why not and offered the next open slot. A booked WordPress post is never moved behind your back.

Preview before anything posts

preview: true runs the whole booking and writes nothing. Claude Desktop shows the plan, with each slot and the day's remaining cap, and books only on your yes.

Clips cut in the same chat

Submit a video or stream link, get captioned 9:16 clips with a viral score, and post the best moment's hook on WordPress with a link to the clip. No download, no re-upload.

Pacing and numbers

Planned: Text posts on WordPress are at least 60 minutes apart, up to 5 a day. After a post goes out, Claude Desktop can read back views and engagement where WordPress provides them.

How does Claude Desktop post to WordPress through ClipSpeed?

You describe what you want in plain language and Claude Desktop makes the ClipSpeed calls. A typical conversation has three beats.

Find your WordPress channel

Ask Claude Desktop whether WordPress is connected. It calls list_channels and reads platform_settings, so it also knows what WordPress accepts and the limits before you write a word.

Is my WordPress account connected to ClipSpeed?

WordPress is on the roadmap on ClipSpeed; I can't book there yet. Your YouTube channel is connected if you'd like to use that.

Compose within the rules

Describe the post. Claude Desktop drafts within WordPress's limits; mention a clip or a file and it attaches it.

Draft a WordPress post about the launch.

Here's the draft: "…" Want me to schedule it?

Schedule or publish

Name a time, or say now. The slot is booked exactly or refused with the next open one, and the reply carries the id you can cancel or edit by.

Yes — tomorrow at 9am.

Scheduled on: • WordPress — Tue, 9:00 AM · id 7c2… Times are in America/New_York.

WordPress limits and gotchas to know

WordPress enforces a few rules that Claude Desktop and ClipSpeed respect automatically, but knowing them helps you phrase requests.

Works with self-hosted WordPress through the REST API and an application password you create on the site; ClipSpeed never asks for your admin password in chat.
Categories and tags must exist on the site.
WordPress is on ClipSpeed's roadmap, not the next rail. Bookings are refused plainly until it posts.
Pages are not a target; posts are.
Planned pacing: five posts a day an hour apart.

Rule	WordPress
Accepts	Text, Image
Text limit	No fixed limit
Title	No title field
Links in the caption	Kept
Pacing	Planned: Text posts on WordPress are at least 60 minutes apart, up to 5 a day.
Formats	Image: a featured image by URL. Aspect: any
Status	On the roadmap; described here, not yet bookable

What Postiz-style schedulers cannot do

Cut the clips first

Claude Desktop does not need finished video to start. Hand it a YouTube link, a podcast, a stream VOD or a local export. ClipSpeed finds the moments, cuts them to 9:16 with word-by-word captions, scores each one 0 to 100 for shareability, and returns them in the same conversation. Claude Desktop picks by score, writes the post from the transcript, and books the best moments as links on WordPress. Three tool calls, one approval, no download and no re-upload.

Clips arrive with a title written from the hook, a transcript and a viral score, so the agent can choose and caption without watching the footage.
Live streams can be clipped while they are still on air; the agent books the highlights for the next morning before the stream ends.
Every clip is already hosted, so schedule_post takes its id directly. Nothing moves through your laptop.

submit_to_clipspeedPaste the link. ClipSpeed starts the job and returns a project id.

check_clipsPoll with the project id. Back come the finished 9:16 clips with titles, transcripts, viral scores and preview links.

schedule_postPass the clip id, the platforms, a caption and a time. Claude Desktop shows the plan with preview: true, you say yes, it books.

generate_image or generate_videoDescribe the shot. ClipSpeed runs it on the model that fits (Seedance, Kling, Veo, Nano Banana Pro, GPT Image and others) and quotes the credits first.

wait_for_generationReturns the hosted result link and a preview the agent can show you.

schedule_post with media_urlThe result link goes straight into the booking on WordPress. The caption, the time and the file are approved together.

The other half nobody else has

Generate the image, then post it

A product shot for Instagram, a 16:9 announcement graphic for X, a six-second opener before a clip: Claude Desktop can make an image with ClipSpeed's image and video models and book the result in the same reply. There is no separate design tool, no export, no upload page. The generated file is hosted, so media_url is the only thing the booking needs.

The price in credits is quoted before anything renders, within the per-generation and daily caps you set in Settings.
Results are previewed in the conversation, so you approve the picture and the post at once.
Images post as JPG, PNG or WebP up to 25 MB; links are kept clickable.

What is Claude Desktop?

Claude Desktop is Anthropic's Mac and Windows app for Claude. It carries the same connectors as claude.ai and adds local context: folders, files and desktop apps the web version cannot see. With the ClipSpeed connector on, Claude can take a video export from your Desktop, clip it, write the posts and book them.

How ClipSpeed works with Claude Desktop

The connector exposes ClipSpeed's scheduling, clipping and generation tools to the desktop app
Claude reads platform rules before composing, so limits are met the first time
Exact-or-refused booking with the next open slot named; nothing moved quietly
preview: true for a dry run of a week
OAuth; no platform password is ever typed in chat

WordPress and Claude Desktop: frequently asked questions

How do I publish to WordPress from Claude Desktop?

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector. Name it ClipSpeed, paste https://api.clipspeed.ai/mcp, save, then Connect and approve the ClipSpeed sign-in. Connect WordPress in ClipSpeed (or ask Claude Desktop for a connect link; it is private and valid for ten minutes), then describe the post in plain language. Claude Desktop reads the WordPress rules, drafts within them, shows the plan and books on your yes. WordPress is on the roadmap; until the badge changes, the booking is refused with a plain message.

What can Claude Desktop post to WordPress through ClipSpeed?

Publish posts with a featured image, categories and tags to your WordPress sites. WordPress takes text and image posts.

Which WordPress settings can Claude Desktop control?

The fields in the settings reference above: title, text, categories / tags, site, media_url, scheduled_at, preview. Mention any of them in plain language ("unlisted", "tomorrow at 9", "preview first") and Claude Desktop sets the matching field before it books.

Do I need a WordPress API key or developer account?

No. You connect WordPress to ClipSpeed once through WordPress's own sign-in, and Claude Desktop talks to ClipSpeed over OAuth. No WordPress developer key, bearer token or password is pasted anywhere.

How many WordPress posts a day can Claude Desktop schedule?

Planned: Text posts on WordPress are at least 60 minutes apart, up to 5 a day. When a time is taken, the booking is refused with the next open slot rather than moved. Ask for preview to see a day's plan and the remaining cap before anything is booked.

Can posts go out to WordPress while I am away?

Yes. Once booked, ClipSpeed publishes at the scheduled minute whether or not Claude Desktop is open. For unattended runs that decide what to post, use a headless agent such as Claude Code or Codex with the same account.

Is posting to WordPress from Claude Desktop different from Claude (claude.ai)?

The booking is identical: the same rules, the same calendar, the same refusals. What differs is where you work. Claude Desktop: mac and windows. Claude (claude.ai): browser, mobile, same connector, no local files.
