List dashboard handoff links/readiness for connecting social accounts, or get one platform connection URL. Use connection_url in a logged-in browser. Direct OAuth URLs are intentionally not exposed because provider callbacks rely on browser state.
AI agents call get_connect_link to retrieve information from Posterly without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves or queries connection readiness status and generates OAuth handoff links for the user to click in a browser. It performs no data creation, modification, deletion, or execution of external operations. The fact that it returns URLs rather than directly executing OAuth flows confirms its read-only nature.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'List dashboard handoff links/readiness for connecting social accounts, or get one platform connection URL.' The verb 'list' and 'get' indicate data retrieval without modification or side effects.

List dashboard handoff links/readiness for connecting social accounts, or get one platform connection URL. Use connection_url in a logged-in browser. Direct OAuth URLs are intentionally not exposed because provider callbacks rely on browser state. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Posterly MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Posterly MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_connect_link: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Posterly. Nothing to install.
get_connect_link is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_connect_link rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_connect_link. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
get_connect_link is provided by the Posterly MCP server (posterly-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
