How to Have Manus Plan and Draft a Month of Social Posts From Your Product Catalog (Setup + Brief)

Quick Answer

Add Autoadify to Manus as a custom MCP server (Settings → Integrations → Custom MCP servers, paste https://mcp.autoadify.com/mcp, OAuth). Then give Manus one brief: your store URL, the month, the networks and the mix of posts. It browses your products, plans the month, writes and illustrates each post, and saves them all as Autoadify drafts. You approve and schedule. Needs Autoadify Pro.

Why Manus for a Month at Once

Chat assistants are good at one post at a time. A month is different: thirty posts, each needing a product, an angle, copy for three networks and an image, with no two weeks repeating. That's a long task with many steps, which is what Manus is designed for. It works through the plan in its own workspace while you do something else, and you come back to a finished batch rather than a conversation.

1. Connect Autoadify

1. In Manus, open Settings → Integrations → Custom MCP servers.
2. Add by URL: name it Autoadify, paste https://mcp.autoadify.com/mcp, and choose OAuth.
3. Sign in to Autoadify and approve the permissions.

2. Write the brief

The brief is the whole job. Manus will follow it for thirty posts, so be specific:

Plan and draft our social posts for December. Store: [your store URL]. Browse the catalog and pick 12 products, favouring ones that suit gifting. Mix: 50% single-product posts, 25% gift-guide posts featuring three products, 25% posts that aren't selling anything (how we make things, care tips). Networks: Instagram 5 a week, Facebook 3, Threads 3. Voice: warm, plain, no exclamation marks, no "elevate". For each post, make one image with Autoadify in 4:5 for Instagram. Save every post as a draft in Autoadify with a suggested date and time. Don't schedule or publish anything. When you're done, give me a table of every draft.

3. Let it run

Manus checks your connected channels and their rules (list_channels), the image models and your credit balance (list_ai_models), then works post by post: browse, write, generate_image, create_post as a draft. A month with images takes a while. Check in when it's done, not every five minutes.

4. Approve

Open the Posts page in Autoadify and read the drafts against Manus' summary table. Edit, delete or schedule each one, or go back to Manus: "Schedule all the Instagram drafts as suggested; rewrite the three Threads posts for week 2, they're too salesy."

Hand off next month: connect Manus, paste the brief, and come back to a month of drafts. Start with Autoadify.

Honest Limits

• Always say "drafts". A long autonomous task is the wrong place to discover a bad prompt. Keep publishing as a separate step you approve.
• Watch the credit balance. Thirty images is a real spend. Ask Manus to tell you the total from list_ai_models before it starts generating.
• It reads your public store pages. Product facts come from what's on the page. Check claims about materials, sizing and stock.
• Recurring runs: Manus has scheduled tasks; check your scheduled task can use your Autoadify connector before relying on it for a monthly run.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Manus need my Shopify login?

No. It browses your public store pages. If your store is connected to Autoadify, Autoadify's own AI Manager can also read the catalog directly.

Can Manus post directly?

Yes, if you approve the Publish permission and ask it to. We recommend drafts for anything over a handful of posts.

How many posts can it draft at once?

A month of 30 is a comfortable size. Bigger batches take longer, and the practical limit is your credit balance for images.

Can it use my own photos?

Yes. Upload them to the Autoadify media library and tell Manus to search it with list_media instead of generating images.

What if a post fails later?

Autoadify shows the error per network on the post, and Manus can read it with get_post and fix the request.

Which Autoadify plan?

Pro ($29/mo) and above include the MCP server. See pricing.

The Bottom Line
