Let AI install it

Copy this message into a Claude chat. The AI checks your computer, tells you which file it will change, and waits for your OK every time.

Please install the MCP server capx café for Claude on this computer, in this order: 1) Check Node.js with node -v. If it is missing, tell me to install it from https://nodejs.org/en/download; do not install it yourself. 2) Use only this config (already checked by PopNx MCP): { "mcpServers": { "capx-cafe": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "capx-cafe" ], "env": { "CAPX_CHOKEPOINT_URL": "your-value", "CAPX_EMAIL": "your-value", "X_CLIENT_ID": "your-value" } } } } 3) Tell me the full path of the file you will change, or the command you will run, and wait for my OK. 4) For CAPX_CHOKEPOINT_URL, CAPX_EMAIL, X_CLIENT_ID, leave "your-value" in place and tell me to paste the real value myself into the file or the app’s field. Never ask me to type a key in chat. 5) Do what we agreed, then check that the capx café tools really show up.

This message has no key in it. If a key is needed, the AI will ask you to paste it yourself into the file or the app’s field.

  1. Install Node.js (if you don’t have it)

    Already installed? Check first · Open Terminal, type this command and press Enter

    node -v

Common questions

Is capx café safe?

It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 2 months ago, and the latest version (0.1.3) reached the registry 2 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

capx café

The safe way to let your AI run your X.

One MCP server. Your X token never touches the agent — and every post clears an enforced guardrail before it ships.

*The guardrail, live — every verdict above is produced by the real chokepoint code (pnpm demo replays it).*


capx café is an agent-native X poster that installs as one MCP server into any coding agent (Claude Code /

Cursor / Codex / Windsurf). A whitelisted user connects their X account once; after that they create /

schedule / post from inside their agent session. The whole product rests on one security thesis: the X

token, the guardrail (casserole), and the send are one inseparable server-side unit — the agent on

your laptop only ever holds a short-TTL session handle, never the token. That's why it structurally can't be

prompt-injected into tweeting a scam. "The AI writes; casserole decides what ships."


Why it's different

Every other "let your AI post" tool has the same flaw: to let an agent post, you paste your X token into a plaintext config right next to an autonomous agent that reads untrusted web pages, issues, and code. One prompt-injection and your account tweets a scam. capx café is the only one that structurally can't be.

  • 🔒 Your X token never touches your machine. OAuth completes on capx café's hosted callback; the token lives encrypted in a server-side vault. Your agent holds only a short-TTL, revocable session handle.
  • 🛡️ casserole — a *deterministic (non-AI)* six-layer guardrail — runs server-side at the only door to X and checks every post. A blocked post never even decrypts your token (proven by an adversarial test suite).
  • 🔗 The token, the guard, and the send are one unit. Skip the plugin and call the server directly — you still hit the guard. The client's checks are cosmetic; the server's are load-bearing.
  • ✍️ capx generates nothing. *Your* agent's model writes; capx ships what clears the guard.

The token, the guardrail, and the send live together behind a trust boundary; your agent can only *ask*.

The guardrail: casserole

Six deterministic layers on every post. Worst result wins — pass / rewrite / hold / block — and a blocked post never even decrypts the token.

60-second quickstart

npx -y capx-cafe          # runs the MCP server — add it to your agent's MCP config

Then, inside your agent:

"connect my X account"              → opens a browser once; the token stays on the server

"post: shipping the thing today" → clears casserole, or tells you exactly why not "turn my last week of commits into a build-in-public thread" → drafts + queues it

Set CAPX_EMAIL (your whitelisted email) and, for the BYO lane, X_CLIENT_ID (your own X app) in ~/.capx/config.json or your agent's MCP env. A guided setup page hands you the exact callback URL to paste.

What your agent can do

ToolWhat it does
connect_xOne-time browser OAuth — the token lands in the server vault, never on your machine
post_nowPost now (clears casserole first). Supports reply-chains and media
previewDry-run a draft through the guardrail without sending — pass / hold / block + why
auditThe durable record of what capx posted or attempted on your behalf, and its state
create_loop · list_loops · …Scheduled posting — a queue you wrote, sent on a schedule, laptop-off
upload_mediaStream a local image/video to X and attach it (media you made with your own tools)
whoamiThe connected account + its status

Skills — your work becomes your content

capx lives inside a *coding* agent, so it has what no social scheduler does: your repo, commits, PRs, releases. Skills turn that into posts — automatically, and always through the guardrail.

G["git commits"] --> BIP["build-in-public drafts a week of posts"] BIP --> Q["loop queue"] Q -->|"1/day · laptop-off"| POST["posted to X"] Q -.->|"runs low"| GAP["gap-alert"] GAP -.->|"top up from new commits"| BIP

The self-refilling content engine: you code → commits accrue → the loop drains as it posts → gap-alert tops it up from the *new* commits. Your normal work *is* the pipeline.

  • 🏆 build-in-public · ship-note · changelog-thread · repurpose (blog/README → thread) · launch-thread · til · fix-note
  • voice-match (sound like you) · draft-review (lint against the guard) · thread-builder · hook-rewrite
  • best-time · cadence-planner · gap-alert · audit-trail · connection-health · quickstart · self-host-guide
  • Media directors — image-director, video-director, prompt-engine, model-guide: capx runs no models; it guides *your* image/video tools (higgsfield, fal, kling, …) and uploads the result. casserole guards your caption; you own the media.

*One canonical SKILL.md per skill, generated for all four agents. capx never writes the content — it makes good content easy and stops bad content regardless of which skill produced it.*

Two lanes

  • BYO — bring your own X developer app. You're X's customer and pay X directly — since Feb 2026 that means pre-loading credits (no free X tier for new apps) at ~$0.015/post, $0.20 if the post contains a link. Free on capx café's side; heavy users can self-host the identical image.
  • capx-app (creator lane) — post through capx café's shared X app, no developer account needed. Opening as a paid beta (waitlist): Short $5 / Tall $15 / Grande $35 monthly tiers + top-up packs, quotas enforced server-side at the gate. Full sheet + the math: [docs/ECONOMICS.md](docs/ECONOMICS.md) · policy posture: docs/X-COMPLIANCE.md.

Self-host

The chokepoint is open source (AGPL-3.0). Run the identical image with your own X app, keys, database, and domain — CAPX_DEPLOY_MODE=self-host, zero telemetry to capx. See the self-host-guide skill and docs/HANDOFF.md.

Licensing

MIT for the client and everything it bundles (apps/capx-mcp, core, config, platform-client) plus skills & docs. AGPL-3.0 for the server half (the chokepoint + casserole/captain/counter/canteen/ chef). Full map: [LICENSING.md](LICENSING.md).

Status

Private alpha, whitelist-only. The first real post shipped 2026-07-19 — guardrail-cleared, token never on the machine. Not yet open for public signups.

Dev

Node ≥ 22.6 (TypeScript runs natively via --experimental-strip-types — no build step). pnpm run verify = unit tests across packages / services / apps + tsc. Contributions accepted under the project CLA.
