One connection powers every channel you run
Connect each platform to ClipSpeed once, through the platform's own sign-in. From then on Manus can post to any of them by name, and ClipSpeed publishes at the minute you set. Posting today: YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X (Twitter) and LinkedIn. The badge on each platform tells you the truth about the rest.

Which way should I connect ClipSpeed to Manus?
The first row is the route this page documents. Every row reaches the same account, the same calendar and the same booking rules; they differ in how you sign in and what else is in the toolset.
| Method | How you connect | Auth | Toolset | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Connector (this page) | Custom MCP connector with the URL | API key or OAuth | Full | Manus users |
| Claude or ChatGPT | Connector URL | OAuth | Full | Verified chat |
| Claude Code or Codex | One command | OAuth | Full | Developers |
The same server works with every other agent too: see the MCP server page and the AI agents overview.
Why use Manus for social media with ClipSpeed?
Manus brings the context: a cloud task agent with connectors. ClipSpeed brings structured tools for every platform, the booking rules that keep an account healthy, and the two things no other scheduler's agent can do: cut the clips and generate the media in the same conversation.
Whole tasks
Source to schedule in one delegation.
Connectors
ClipSpeed sits next to your other connectors.
Exact-or-refused
Slots booked or refused with the next open one.
Clips from inside the tool call
Submit a video or a live stream, get back captioned 9:16 clips with a viral score, and book the best ones. The clipping step is a tool, not a separate product.
Image and video generation
Generate a product shot, a quote card or a short opener with ClipSpeed's models, see the credit price first, and post the hosted result with media_url.
Rules that run on the server
Caps, spacing, exact-or-refused booking, duplicate protection and per-platform limits are enforced when Manus books, so a hurried prompt cannot flood a platform or post the same thing twice.
What is Manus?
Manus is a general agent that completes delegated tasks on a cloud machine and reaches outside services through connectors, including MCP servers. With ClipSpeed connected, Manus can clip videos, generate media and schedule posts as part of a task.
Manus vs Cue vs Perplexity Computer

How ClipSpeed works with Manus
Once connected, Manus sees every ClipSpeed tool the moment the sign-in completes: channels, platform rules, posts, analytics, clipping and generation. It chains them for you; the rules below are what keeps that safe.
- Connector over HTTP
- Reads platform rules
- Exact-or-refused
preview: true- Key in secrets
How booking works, whatever the client
- Exact or refused. A time you name is booked to the minute or refused with the reason and the next open slot. ClipSpeed never moves a booked post without asking.
- As soon as possible is placed and said. Leave the time out and the reply tells you exactly where the post landed.
- Preview books nothing.
preview: trueruns the whole booking, including caps, spacing and slot choice, and writes nothing. It is how a week gets planned before it is booked. - Limits are refused at booking, never trimmed at send time. The reply carries the real count so the fix is one edit.
- Pacing protects the account. Text posts on X are at least 30 minutes apart (ten a day); LinkedIn text is an hour apart (three a day); video uploads are two to four hours apart under your plan's daily cap.
- One piece of content goes to one platform once. The same text or the same file to the same platform is recognised as a duplicate and refused.
- Cancel is undoable for 72 hours in the ClipSpeed app. Copy can be edited while a post is still scheduled; the time cannot, by design.

# Rules
- Read platform_settings before composing; limits are refused, never trimmed.
- Preview a plan (preview: true) before booking; never skip the user's approval.
- A refused slot comes back with the next open one. Use it; never guess a time.
- One piece of content goes to one platform once.What Postiz-style schedulers cannot do
Cut the clips first
Manus 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. Manus picks by score, writes the caption from the transcript, and books the clips on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X (Twitter) and LinkedIn. 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.

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: Manus 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.

Manus and ClipSpeed: frequently asked questions
How do I connect ClipSpeed to Manus?
Add ClipSpeed as an MCP connector in Manus with the URL and a ClipSpeed API key, then ask Manus to list your channels. In Manus, open connectors and add a custom MCP connector with https://api.clipspeed.ai/mcp. Authenticate with a ClipSpeed API key from Account → API & Integrations (or OAuth if Manus offers the sign-in). Nothing else is installed, and the same account you use in the ClipSpeed app is the one Manus books into.
Do I need a paid ClipSpeed plan to schedule from Manus?
Scheduling needs an active ClipSpeed plan or the $1 trial, and it is included on every paid plan at no extra cost. Manus itself is billed by Manus under your own account. Connect during the trial, book a few posts, and the plan screen in ClipSpeed takes it from there.
Is Manus the same as Cue?
No. Manus: cloud, whole tasks. Cue: phone and web, manus's personal agent. Perplexity Computer: cloud, research-first. All of them reach the same ClipSpeed account and the same calendar; this page covers Manus.
What can Manus do with ClipSpeed?
List your connected channels, read each platform's rules, write posts within those rules, schedule or preview them, edit or cancel what is scheduled, and read the numbers after a post goes out. It can also cut a video or a live stream into captioned 9:16 clips with a viral score, generate images and video, and book the results. Today that posts to YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X (Twitter) and LinkedIn; text-only posts go to X (Twitter) and LinkedIn.
Will posts go out while I am away?
Yes. Once Manus books a post, ClipSpeed holds it and publishes at the scheduled minute whether or not the chat is open. For fully unattended runs, pair ClipSpeed with a headless agent such as Claude Code or Codex.
Does Manus need my social media passwords?
No. You connect each platform to ClipSpeed once through that platform's own sign-in; ClipSpeed never sees the password and Manus never sees the platform at all. Manus authenticates to ClipSpeed with a ClipSpeed API key you can revoke at any time, and it can only reach channels already connected in your account. Keep Manus's confirmation step on for anything that goes live.
Which platforms can Manus post to through ClipSpeed?
Today: YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X (Twitter) and LinkedIn. Next on the rail: Facebook, Threads, Bluesky and Pinterest. 21 more platforms, from Telegram and Discord to Reddit and WordPress, are described on their pages with an honest status badge and are not bookable until that badge changes. Each platform below has its own Manus guide with a settings reference and the limits that apply.
Manus does not show the ClipSpeed tools. What should I check?
Confirm the connection finished: the ClipSpeed sign-in (or the API key header) has to complete before the tool list is advertised. Then start a fresh chat and make sure the ClipSpeed connector is enabled for it. If a channel is missing rather than a tool, connect the platform in ClipSpeed first and ask Manus to list channels again.
Has ClipSpeed verified Manus?
Not yet. The badge changes when we have.
Key or OAuth?
Whichever Manus's connector dialog offers; both reach the same account.
