What is Postiz?
Postiz v2.25 adds preview comments and relays Cloud MCP to self-hosted instances.
v2.25.0 on 2 October adds inline comments on post previews, with replies, resolving and anonymous commenting, plus a self-hosted connector that lets Postiz Cloud relay MCP tool calls to a user's own instance. A provider sweep turns dozens of Unknown Error failures into readable, correctly retried errors, and stalled media reads can no longer hang a publish. It follows August's streamed uploads and duplicate-post protection.
What is Statusbrew?
Statusbrew lets Claude and ChatGPT reply to comments and DMs from its Engage inbox.
Statusbrew is a social media management suite that ships near-daily small updates. On 9 and 10 November its MCP gained the ability for AI tools such as Claude and ChatGPT to reply to comments, DMs, mentions and reviews in the Engage inbox, showing the reply before sending. Reports added four Meta ad metrics, including purchases and cost per result, and Compose now shows where long X posts collapse behind See more.

Postiz v2.25 adds preview comments and relays Cloud MCP to self-hosted instances.
◆ Current state
v2.25.0 on 2 October adds inline comments on post previews, with replies, resolving and anonymous commenting, plus a self-hosted connector that lets Postiz Cloud relay MCP tool calls to a user's own instance. A provider sweep turns dozens of Unknown Error failures into readable, correctly retried errors, and stalled media reads can no longer hang a publish. It follows August's streamed uploads and duplicate-post protection.
◆ Where it's heading
Reliability remains the steady line, but features have returned after a stretch dominated by security releases. Comments open the preview to people without an account, which suggests client review as a use case. The MCP work has moved from fixing OAuth to connecting self-hosters with the Cloud Claude connector and returning preview links an agent can share.
◆ Prediction
Expect more MCP tool additions, since the agent path is getting steady attention, and continued provider error mapping. The past security-release pattern keeps another advisory patch plausible.
Statusbrew
5.0MARKETING
Statusbrew lets Claude and ChatGPT reply to comments and DMs from its Engage inbox.
◆ Current state
Statusbrew is a social media management suite that ships near-daily small updates. On 9 and 10 November its MCP gained the ability for AI tools such as Claude and ChatGPT to reply to comments, DMs, mentions and reviews in the Engage inbox, showing the reply before sending. Reports added four Meta ad metrics, including purchases and cost per result, and Compose now shows where long X posts collapse behind See more.
◆ Where it's heading
Statusbrew is moving from reporting and scheduling toward letting outside AI assistants act inside the product, starting with inbox replies under the user's own name and permissions. The reporting work keeps closing gaps with the networks' own numbers, now extending to Meta ad results and purchases.
◆ Prediction
More Engage and Publish actions exposed through the MCP is the likely next step, given the confirm-before-send pattern used here; the entries do not show plans for fully automatic replies.
