Post about what you shipped
“Read today’s commits and draft a LinkedIn post about what we shipped, in my voice.”
Ship it, then post it with GitHub Copilot
Copilot already knows what changed in your repo. Let agent mode draft the post too.

}What you can ask GitHub Copilot
Real requests, answered from your own strategy, ideas, and results.
Turn a changelog into a thread
“Turn the latest entry in CHANGELOG.md into an X thread draft and plan it for Thursday morning.”
Catch ideas mid-task
“Save an idea to my Build in public folder: the bug that took three days was one missing index.”
Plan the launch week
“We launch Monday. Plan four drafts across LinkedIn and X for the week, starting from my content strategy.”
Plan next week from what worked
“Look at my posts from the last 30 days, find the three that beat my usual, and plan five drafts for next week around those angles.”
Check how a post landed
“How did my Tuesday LinkedIn post do compared with my usual, and what should I try next?”

Questions
Does Distinctful see my code?
No. Copilot works with your code as it always does. Distinctful only receives the ideas and drafts the agent saves.
Do I need an API key?
No. Your tool signs in to Distinctful through OAuth, so you approve access on a Distinctful screen and never paste a key.
Can it schedule and publish posts?
Yes. Ask it to schedule a post or post it now and it does, on the accounts you name. If you would rather review first, ask it to plan the post onto your calendar and schedule it yourself.
Which plan do I need?
Connecting an AI tool through MCP is included on the Grow plan and higher.
How do I disconnect it?
Open Settings in Distinctful, go to Integrations, and revoke it under connected agents. Access ends within a minute.
