Facebook MCP Server
A Facebook MCP server gives an AI agent tools for your Page, so a model can publish and respond rather than just draft copy for you to paste. Point Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client at Outstand's server and the agent can post text, photos, and video to a Page you manage, chain a first comment onto the post, read and reply to comments, and pull Page and post insights. Everything runs on Meta's official Graph API over an OAuth connection you approve once.

Works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, ChatGPT, and any MCP client.
First post in minutes.
The server URL is https://mcp.outstand.so/mcp. Paste it into your client and connect Facebook.
- 01Create an Outstand account. There is no Meta developer app to register and no App Review to sit through.
- 02Connect Facebook through the hosted OAuth link and pick the Page you want the agent to publish to.
- 03Add https://mcp.outstand.so/mcp to your MCP client using one of the snippets below.
- 04Ask your agent to post. Give it the copy and any media, and it picks the right Graph API endpoint for the media you attached.

Does Facebook have an official MCP server?
No. Meta does not publish an MCP server for Facebook, and the third-party options divide sharply along a line that matters more here than on most networks.
One group automates the Facebook website with a browser session or a copied cookie. These are the ones that show up first on GitHub, and they are the ones most likely to get an account restricted. Meta is unusually aggressive about session-based automation, and the account carrying the risk is yours.
The other group uses the Graph API with a Page access token, which is the supported path. The friction there is real: you register a Meta developer app, request the Page permissions, and go through App Review before anything works outside your own test Page. Outstand is in this group and carries that overhead for you, so connecting a Page is a consent screen rather than a review cycle.
Choosing a Facebook MCP.
Three realistic ways to give an agent Facebook access, and what each one actually costs you.
| Approach | Setup time | Auth | Reliability | Compliance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Self-hosted browser automation or scraper | Hours: clone, install, supply a login or cookie | Session cookie or account login | Breaks often. Meta actively detects and blocks it | Against Meta terms. Account and Page risk is yours |
| Self-hosted with your own Meta developer app | Days to weeks: register the app, request Page permissions, pass App Review | Your own app credentials and Page token refresh | Solid once approved, if you keep tokens fresh | Official Graph API, once App Review clears |
| Hosted API-based (Outstand) | A few minutes: sign in, approve OAuth, paste the URL | Hosted OAuth link flow. Managed Keys included, no developer app | Maintained against the Graph API, token refresh handled | Official Meta Graph API. No scraping or session automation |
Authentication
Connecting Facebook is an OAuth link flow: Outstand opens Meta's consent screen, you approve the Page permissions and choose which Page to connect, and the connection is done. Outstand then works with that Page's access token, which is why the connection is Page-scoped rather than profile-scoped.
The part this removes is App Review. Publishing to a Page through the Graph API normally means registering a Meta developer app, requesting the Page management permissions, and submitting for review before the integration works for anyone but you. Managed Keys are included on every plan and cover Facebook. Your agent can start the connection itself by calling get_auth_url and handing you the link.
Facebook specifics.
- ✓Pages only, not personal profiles. Meta's Graph API has no supported way to publish to a personal timeline, so anything claiming to do that is automating the website.
- ✓Photos and video cannot be mixed in one post. Attach only images or only a video, and Outstand rejects the mix up front rather than publishing something half-formed.
- ✓Media count picks the endpoint: no media posts as text, one image as a photo post, several images as a multi-photo post, and a video as a video upload. The agent does not need to choose.
- ✓Extra containers on a post become a chained comment thread under the published post, which is the usual way to put links in a first comment rather than in the post body.
- ✓Page mentions only resolve in comments. Meta's Graph API does not expand an inline page tag in a feed post, so Outstand applies mentions at the comment level where they actually work.
- ✓Facebook has no API repost or share for Pages, so that tool reports a clear failure rather than pretending to work.
- ✓Page insights can come back thin on low-activity Pages. That is Meta withholding data below its own thresholds, not a missing metric.
What this MCP doesn't do.
This server publishes organic Page content and handles comments on posts it published. It is not a Facebook Ads integration: it does not create campaigns, read Ads Manager reporting, or manage audiences, all of which sit behind the Marketing API. It does not touch Messenger, Groups, Marketplace, or personal profiles, and it does not scrape other Pages or run competitor research. What it does is publish, schedule, respond, and measure on Pages you connected.
Frequently asked questions.
Does Facebook have an official MCP server?
No. Meta has not shipped one, so every option today is third-party. Check carefully how a given server authenticates: many popular ones drive the Facebook website with a session cookie, which puts your account at risk of restriction.
Can Claude post to a Facebook Page?
Yes. Add https://mcp.outstand.so/mcp to Claude, connect a Page, and Claude can publish text, photo, multi-photo, and video posts to it, then reply to the comments that come in. The same connector works in Cursor, Windsurf, ChatGPT, and any other MCP client.
Can it post to my personal Facebook profile?
No, and no compliant tool can. Meta's Graph API only supports publishing to Pages, so personal-profile posting is only possible by automating the website, which violates Meta's terms and risks the account. Connect a Page instead.
Do I need a Meta developer app or App Review?
No. That is the main thing this removes. Publishing to a Page through the Graph API normally requires your own Meta app, the Page permissions, and an App Review submission. Managed Keys cover Facebook on every plan, so you approve a consent screen and you are done.
Can it reply to comments on Facebook?
Yes. get_replies reads the comments on a post published through Outstand and create_reply responds to them, so an agent can run a review-and-respond loop over your Page without you opening Meta Business Suite.
Can it schedule Facebook posts?
Yes. create_post takes a scheduled time, so an agent can queue a Page post ahead of time. Scheduling runs in Outstand rather than on Facebook, and a scheduled post can be cancelled with delete_post before it goes out.
What does it cost?
The MCP server is included with every Outstand account at no extra cost. Pricing is $19/month, 3,000 posts included, and posts published by an agent draw on the same quota as posts published through the REST API.
Every claim on this page is restated, dated, and citable on the facts page.
