Buffer for AI agents
Buffer schedules and publishes social media posts across connected channels, giving a marketing team one queue to plan and release content from. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.
What agents do in Buffer.
Draft a post for review
Create a post draft for a channel and leave it pending review before it goes live.
Publish queued posts
Publish a batch of scheduled posts to their connected channels at the planned time.
Check what's already scheduled
List upcoming posts on a channel before adding new ones, to avoid double-booking a slot.
11 Buffer actions, graded by risk.
Every Buffer action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

Buffer in three steps.
- 01Your users connect BufferThey sign in to Buffer on Arc0 Connect, under your brand, and approve the access you ask for.
- 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “create Idea” can wait for the user, and “delete Post” can be denied outright.
- 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Buffer through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
await arc0.policies.set('buffer', { read: 'allow', write: 'ask', // create_idea destructive: 'deny', // delete_post }) # Claude Code: the same connection, one URL $ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \ https://mcp.arc0.ai/u/u_8f2
How Buffer connects.
Users sign in to Buffer on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Buffer OAuth app, or bring your own so the Buffer consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.
The same Buffer connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

- OAuth 2.0

- Per-tenant encrypted vault
- MODEL SEES
- Results only, never credentials

Use Buffer from any agent.
Buffer and Arc0, answered.
Can I use Buffer with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Connect Buffer to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Buffer actions you allow.
How do users connect Buffer?
Users sign in to Buffer on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Buffer OAuth app, or bring your own so the Buffer consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.
Which Buffer actions can my agent take?
11 in total: 5 read, 4 write and 2 destructive, such as “create Idea”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Buffer?
Yes. Actions like “delete Post” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.
Can my own backend call Buffer too?
Yes. The same Buffer connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
Plug Buffer into your agent.
Your users connect Buffer once, under your brand. Your agent gets 11 actions behind your policies, with every call on the record.
