Post to VK from Grok Build
Grok Build can post to a wall or group on VK through ClipSpeed. Add the ClipSpeed server with one config block, sign in, and then ask Grok Build to post to a wall or group, pick the time, and apply VK's settings, without leaving xAI's coding agent and CLI. VK is on the roadmap on ClipSpeed's rail; this page describes how it works and says so.
Keep a human in the loop: Grok Build shows the plan and asks before anything is public. Posting today: YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X (Twitter) and LinkedIn.

How to post VK from Grok Build
Add ClipSpeed as an HTTP MCP server in Grok Build's configuration, complete the sign-in, and the tools appear. Connect VK in ClipSpeed, then describe the post. Setup takes about a minute.

Grok Build: Preview — nothing booked yet. VK — text. Book it?ClipSpeed has not yet run an end-to-end check inside Grok Build. The server is standard MCP over HTTP; the configuration shape above is the common one and Grok Build's documentation is the reference for the file location.
- Add the clipspeed server with the URL to Grok Build's MCP configuration (see its docs for the file location).
- Start Grok Build; complete the ClipSpeed sign-in when prompted, or use an API key header.
- Ask it to list your channels.
- Connect VK in the ClipSpeed app, or ask Grok Build for a connect link: it is private, valid for ten minutes, and VK signs you in itself.
What can Grok Build do on VK?
On VK, Grok Build can post text, images and video to a VK wall or group. Every booking runs through the same rules as the ClipSpeed app.
Text, Image and Video posts
VK takes text, image and video through ClipSpeed. Video: MP4 up to 1 GB. Image: JPG or PNG.
16,384 characters, checked at booking
VK's own arithmetic. Too long is refused with the real count, never trimmed at send time.
Exact time or refused
Name the minute and Grok Build books it, or you are told why not and offered the next open slot. A booked VK post is never moved behind your back.
Preview before anything posts
preview: true runs the whole booking and writes nothing. Grok Build shows the plan, with each slot and the day's remaining cap, and books only on your yes.
Clips cut in the same session
Submit a video or stream link, get captioned 9:16 clips with a viral score, and post the best as native video on VK. No download, no re-upload.
Pacing and numbers
Planned: Text posts on VK are at least 30 minutes apart, up to 10 a day. Video on VK is at least 4 hours apart, up to 4 a day under your plan. After a post goes out, Grok Build can read back views and engagement where VK provides them.
How does Grok Build post to VK through ClipSpeed?
You describe what you want in plain language and Grok Build makes the ClipSpeed calls. A typical conversation has three beats.
Find your VK channel
Ask Grok Build whether VK is connected. It calls list_channels and reads platform_settings, so it also knows what VK accepts and the limits before you write a word.
Compose within the rules
Describe the post. Grok Build drafts within VK's limits; mention a clip or a file and it attaches 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.
VK settings reference
These are the schedule_post fields that apply to VK. Mention any of them in plain language and Grok Build sets them; the server checks them at booking. Fields marked planned land with the VK release.
| Field | Type | Required | What it does on VK |
|---|---|---|---|
platforms | string[] | Yes | Include "vk". Up to ten platforms per call; each books its own slot. |
text | string | Yes for a text post | Up to 16,384 characters. |
group | string | Planned | A group you manage; defaults to your wall. |
media_kind | text | image | video | No | Detected from the file when omitted. |
clip_id or media_url | string | No | A clip or a public link. |
scheduled_at | ISO 8601 | No | Exact or refused with the next open slot. |
preview | boolean | No | Plan only. |

VK limits and gotchas to know
VK enforces a few rules that Grok Build and ClipSpeed respect automatically, but knowing them helps you phrase requests.
- A very long text limit (16,384) but the feed truncates early; lead with the point.
- Group posts need admin or editor rights on the group.
- VK is on ClipSpeed's roadmap, not the next rail. Bookings are refused plainly until it posts.
- Video uploads follow the four-hour spacing rule.
- Planned pacing: ten text posts a day 30 minutes apart.
| Rule | VK |
|---|---|
| Accepts | Text, Image, Video |
| Text limit | 16,384 characters |
| Title | No title field |
| Links in the caption | Kept with a preview |
| Pacing | Planned: Text posts on VK are at least 30 minutes apart, up to 10 a day. Video on VK is at least 4 hours apart, up to 4 a day under your plan. |
| Formats | Image: JPG or PNG. Video: MP4 up to 1 GB. Aspect: any |
| Status | On the roadmap; described here, not yet bookable |
What Postiz-style schedulers cannot do
Cut the clips first
Grok Build 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. Grok Build picks by score, writes the caption from the transcript, and books the clips on VK. 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_posttakes 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. Grok Build 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 VK. The caption, the time and the file are approved together.The other half nobody else has
Generate the image or video, then post it
A product shot for Instagram, a 16:9 announcement graphic for X, a six-second opener before a clip: Grok Build can make an image or a short video 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; video posts as MP4, MOV or WebM up to 1 GB.

VK and Grok Build: frequently asked questions
How do I post to VK from Grok Build?
Add the clipspeed server with the URL to Grok Build's MCP configuration (see its docs for the file location). Start Grok Build; complete the ClipSpeed sign-in when prompted, or use an API key header. Connect VK in ClipSpeed (or ask Grok Build for a connect link; it is private and valid for ten minutes), then describe the post in plain language. Grok Build reads the VK rules, drafts within them, shows the plan and books on your yes. VK is on the roadmap; until the badge changes, the booking is refused with a plain message.
What can Grok Build post to VK through ClipSpeed?
Post text, images and video to a VK wall or group. VK takes text, image and video posts. Text is limited to 16,384 characters.
Which VK settings can Grok Build control?
The fields in the settings reference above: text, group, media_kind, clip_id or media_url, scheduled_at, preview. Mention any of them in plain language ("unlisted", "tomorrow at 9", "preview first") and Grok Build sets the matching field before it books.
Do I need a VK API key or developer account?
No. You connect VK to ClipSpeed once through VK's own sign-in, and Grok Build talks to ClipSpeed over OAuth. No VK developer key, bearer token or password is pasted anywhere.
How many VK posts a day can Grok Build schedule?
Planned: Text posts on VK are at least 30 minutes apart, up to 10 a day. Video on VK is at least 4 hours apart, up to 4 a day under your plan. 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 VK while I am away?
Yes. Once booked, ClipSpeed publishes at the scheduled minute whether or not Grok Build 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 VK from Grok Build different from Grok Bot?
The booking is identical: the same rules, the same calendar, the same refusals. What differs is where you work. Grok Build: terminal. Grok Bot: cloud, always on, routines on a cloud computer.
