Schedule announcements on Kick from Windsurf
Windsurf can update your stream and chat on Kick through ClipSpeed. Add the ClipSpeed server with one config block, sign in, and then ask Windsurf to update your stream and chat, pick the time, and apply Kick's settings, without leaving the Windsurf editor's Cascade agent. Kick is on the roadmap on ClipSpeed's rail; this page describes how it works and says so.
Keep a human in the loop: Windsurf shows the plan and asks before anything is public. Posting today: YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X (Twitter) and LinkedIn.

How to schedule announcements Kick from Windsurf
Windsurf reads MCP servers from one JSON file. Add the block, refresh the MCP list in Cascade's settings, sign in, and the tools appear. Connect Kick in ClipSpeed, then describe the post. Setup takes about a minute.

"mcpServers": {
"clipspeed": { "serverUrl": "https://api.clipspeed.ai/mcp" }
}
}
# Then ask Windsurf:
> Post in chat at 8pm that we're live
Windsurf: Preview — nothing booked yet. Kick — text. Book it?Windsurf lists each server's tools in the MCP panel once connected. An empty list means the connection or sign-in did not complete. ClipSpeed has not yet seen a real Windsurf session connect; the setup is Windsurf's documented MCP route and the URL is the same as every verified client.
- Open ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json (Windsurf Settings → Cascade → MCP → view raw config) and add the block shown.
- Refresh the MCP servers in Cascade. clipspeed appears; authenticate and approve the ClipSpeed sign-in.
- Ask Cascade to list your channels.
- Connect Kick in the ClipSpeed app, or ask Windsurf for a connect link: it is private, valid for ten minutes, and Kick signs you in itself.

What can Windsurf do on Kick?
On Kick, Windsurf can set stream titles and send chat announcements. Every booking runs through the same rules as the ClipSpeed app.
Text posts
Kick takes text through ClipSpeed.
500 characters, checked at booking
Kick's own arithmetic. Too long is refused with the real count, never trimmed at send time. Titles cap at 140.
Exact time or refused
Name the minute and Windsurf books it, or you are told why not and offered the next open slot. A booked Kick post is never moved behind your back.
Preview before anything posts
preview: true runs the whole booking and writes nothing. Windsurf 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 Kick with a link to the clip. No download, no re-upload.
Pacing and numbers
Planned: Text posts on Kick are at least 15 minutes apart, up to 20 a day. After a post goes out, Windsurf can read back views and engagement where Kick provides them.
How does Windsurf post to Kick through ClipSpeed?
You describe what you want in plain language and Windsurf makes the ClipSpeed calls. A typical conversation has three beats.
Find your Kick channel
Ask Windsurf whether Kick is connected. It calls list_channels and reads platform_settings, so it also knows what Kick accepts and the limits before you write a word.
Compose within the rules
Describe the post. Windsurf drafts within Kick'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.
Kick settings reference
These are the schedule_post fields that apply to Kick. Mention any of them in plain language and Windsurf sets them; the server checks them at booking. Fields marked planned land with the Kick release.
| Field | Type | Required | What it does on Kick |
|---|---|---|---|
platforms | string[] | Yes | Include "kick". Up to ten platforms per call; each books its own slot. |
text | string | Yes | A chat message up to 500 characters. |
title | string | No | A stream title. |
scheduled_at | ISO 8601 | No | When the announcement goes out. |
preview | boolean | No | Plan only. |

Kick limits and gotchas to know
Kick enforces a few rules that Windsurf and ClipSpeed respect automatically, but knowing them helps you phrase requests.
- Kick has no post feed; the schedulable surface is the title and chat. Clips go to the video platforms.
- Kick's public API is young; what the tools can do depends on it.
- Kick is on ClipSpeed's roadmap, not the next rail. Bookings are refused plainly until it works.
- ClipSpeed already clips Kick streams live.
- Chat messages are 500 characters.
| Rule | Kick |
|---|---|
| Accepts | Text |
| Text limit | 500 characters |
| Title | 140 characters, optional |
| Links in the caption | Kept in chat |
| Pacing | Planned: Text posts on Kick are at least 15 minutes apart, up to 20 a day. |
| Formats | Text |
| Status | On the roadmap; described here, not yet bookable |
What Postiz-style schedulers cannot do
Cut the clips first
Windsurf 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. Windsurf picks by score, writes the post from the transcript, and books the best moments as links on Kick. 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. Windsurf 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 Kick. The caption, the time and the file are approved together.The other half nobody else has
Generate the video, then post it
A product shot for Instagram, a 16:9 announcement graphic for X, a six-second opener before a clip: Windsurf can make an image for the post link 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.
- links are kept clickable.
What is Windsurf?
Windsurf is an AI code editor whose agent, Cascade, runs multi-step tasks in your project and calls MCP tools. With ClipSpeed in Windsurf's MCP configuration, Cascade can clip a video, generate images and video, and schedule posts to your connected platforms from inside the editor.
How ClipSpeed works with Windsurf
- Windsurf connects to the ClipSpeed server from mcp_config.json; sign in in the MCP panel
- Cascade reads

Kick and Windsurf: frequently asked questions
How do I schedule announcements to Kick from Windsurf?
Open ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json (Windsurf Settings → Cascade → MCP → view raw config) and add the block shown. Refresh the MCP servers in Cascade. clipspeed appears; authenticate and approve the ClipSpeed sign-in. Connect Kick in ClipSpeed (or ask Windsurf for a connect link; it is private and valid for ten minutes), then describe the post in plain language. Windsurf reads the Kick rules, drafts within them, shows the plan and books on your yes. Kick is on the roadmap; until the badge changes, the booking is refused with a plain message.
What can Windsurf post to Kick through ClipSpeed?
Set stream titles and send chat announcements. Kick takes text posts. Text is limited to 500 characters. A title is capped at 140 characters.
Which Kick settings can Windsurf control?
The fields in the settings reference above: text, title, scheduled_at, preview. Mention any of them in plain language ("unlisted", "tomorrow at 9", "preview first") and Windsurf sets the matching field before it books.
Do I need a Kick API key or developer account?
No. You connect Kick to ClipSpeed once through Kick's own sign-in, and Windsurf talks to ClipSpeed over OAuth. No Kick developer key, bearer token or password is pasted anywhere.
How many Kick posts a day can Windsurf schedule?
Planned: Text posts on Kick are at least 15 minutes apart, up to 20 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 Kick while I am away?
Yes. Once booked, ClipSpeed publishes at the scheduled minute whether or not Windsurf 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 Kick from Windsurf different from Cursor?
The booking is identical: the same rules, the same calendar, the same refusals. What differs is where you work. Windsurf: the windsurf editor. Cursor: cursor editor, agent panel; cursor-agent cli.
