CLI Overview

The Verlynk CLI (verlynk on npm) is a command-line interface to the Verlynk Public API. Use it to authenticate, manage profiles and channels, create and schedule posts (including local image/video upload), inspect usage, and pull analytics from your terminal or scripts. Source: verlynk/verlynk-agent on GitHub.

Requirements: Node.js 18+

MCP tokens and Public API keys are different credentials. For agent integrations, see Create MCP Token. For the CLI, see Authentication.

What you can do​

  • List and switch profiles (projects)
  • List connected social accounts (channels)
  • Create, schedule, update, retry, and delete posts
  • Upload media from local files (media:upload / posts:create --media-file)
  • Manage drafts and API keys
  • List and reply to inbox comments, and triage their status (inbox:list / inbox:reply / inbox:status)
  • Pull analytics and check usage / plan limits
  • Validate caption length across platforms
