Prerequisiti

Le istruzioni di setup complete sono incluse nel connettore stesso (visibili nello store quando lo selezioni). Le variabili d'ambiente richieste sono:

BUFFER_ACCESS_TOKEN

Step 1 — Ottieni le credenziali

This connector wraps the Buffer Publish GraphQL API (graphql.buffer.com).

Setup:

  1. Sign in at https://publish.buffer.com → top-right avatar → Settings → API access → Generate personal access token.
  2. Set BUFFER_ACCESS_TOKEN.

Authentication: Authorization: Bearer ${BUFFER_ACCESS_TOKEN}.

GraphQL-only: Buffer's modern API is GraphQL. The auto-injected buffer_graphql_query / buffer_graphql_mutation / buffer_graphql_schema builtins cover anything not in the typed wrappers below.

Channel = connected social account (Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Mastodon, TikTok, Pinterest, YouTube, Bluesky, Threads). Each has an ID; posts must specify channelId(s).

…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)

Step 2 — Installa l'adapter

git clone https://github.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp.git
cd anythingmcp && docker compose up -d

Step 3 — Aggiungi il connettore in Cursor

Cursor legge i server MCP da ~/.cursor/mcp.json. Aggiungi questa voce:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "anythingmcp": {
      "url": "https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_MCP_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}
  1. Ottieni la tua MCP API key da AnythingMCP → Profilo → MCP API Keys → Nuova Key.
  2. Salva il file e riavvia Cursor.
  3. Apri Cursor → Impostazioni → MCP per verificare che Buffer sia presente e "Connected".
  4. Inizia a chattare — tutti gli strumenti di Buffer sono ora invocabili.
