Help: setting up Social Autopilot
These are the same steps the setup wizard walks you through, on one page.
1. Business profile
Tell Knorra about your business once. Every flow reads this first, and picks up a change on its next run.
- Business name
- What do you sell?
- Who buys it?
- Your main offer
- Facts you can state
- How should it sound?
- Words or claims to avoid
- Website
- Where are you based?
- Who must never be contacted?
2. Flow interview
Questions for this flow only. Each one says where the answer is used.
- Which channels should it post to? Decides which accounts in your scheduling tool receive posts.
- How many posts a week? Sets the size of the weekly plan and the weekly target on your dashboard.
- What time of day should posts go out? The default slot for scheduled posts, in your workspace time zone.
- What time on Thursday should next week be planned? The time of the weekly planning task.
- What should a reader do next? The next step used in about a quarter of posts.
- Use hashtags? Whether posts end with hashtags.
- How many of those posts should be reels? How many posts in the weekly plan are made as reels.
- Which reel type? Which reel layout a run follows.
- Create an image for each post? Whether the run calls your image tool.
- Turn on folder mode? Adds the daily folder task to your schedule.
- Drive folder name (folder mode only) The folder the daily task reads.
- Documents and notes: which app do you use? The flow works in this app when your Claude can reach it, through its own connector, then Zapier, then files, and keeps it in Knorra otherwise.
- File storage: which app do you use? The flow works in this app when your Claude can reach it, through its own connector, then Zapier, then files, and keeps it in Knorra otherwise.
- Social accounts: which app do you use? The flow works in this app when your Claude can reach it, through its own connector, then Zapier, then files, and keeps it in Knorra otherwise.
3. Posting and making
How posts go out and what makes them. Saved for this workspace and read by every run.
- Metricool (Recommended): Schedules weeks ahead, even with your laptop off. See the whole content pipeline in Metricool. Uses the official connector, inside the networks' rules. Needs a Metricool account.
- Claude in Chrome: No extra account to set up. Your computer and Chrome must be on at post time. Automated posting can break a network's rules and get the account restricted.
- Claude alone writes good captions and simple graphics. Add ElevenLabs or Higgsfield and connect its connector in Claude for voiceovers, real images and short videos. Their plans are billed by them, not Knorra.
4. Requirements check
Everything this flow needs, with what it costs you. Tick each one when you have it.
- A Claude plan with scheduled tasks. The flow runs inside your own Claude on a timetable. Cost: Your existing Claude subscription. Scheduled tasks need a paid Claude plan.
- A way for posts to go out. Metricool connected to Claude (recommended), or Claude in Chrome on a computer that is on at post time. You choose in the next step. Your social accounts stay in Metricool or your browser, never in Knorra. Cost: Metricool is paid to Metricool, not to Knorra; check its price page for the plan that covers your channels. Claude in Chrome comes with your Claude plan.
- Google Drive connected to Claude (folder mode only). Only needed if you want to drop ready made posts in a folder. Cost: Free with a Google account.
- ElevenLabs or Higgsfield connected to Claude (optional). Claude alone makes captions, carousels and simple graphics. ElevenLabs adds voiceovers and Higgsfield images and short videos. Cost: On your own ElevenLabs or Higgsfield plan, billed by them, not by Knorra. Not needed for text posts.
5. Connect Knorra to Claude
One guided step adds the Knorra connector to your Claude and signs it in. There is no key to paste.
- In Claude, open Settings, then Connectors.
- Choose "Add custom connector".
- Name it Knorra and paste this address: https://knorra.ai/api/mcp
- Press Connect. A Knorra page opens: sign in with your Knorra email, choose this workspace and press Allow.
- Come back to this page. It confirms by itself when the connector first calls home.
6. Install the starter skill
One download, one upload into Claude. The file carries your licence ID and holds no method of its own.
- Download the skill file below.
- In Claude, open Settings, then Capabilities, and find Skills.
- Choose "Upload skill" and pick the file you downloaded.
- Make sure the skill is switched on.
- This flow includes the Branding plugin. Install it the same way to create one brand kit that every flow writes from.
7. Permissions and connectors
Allow these in order, so scheduled runs are not stopped by a permission prompt nobody is there to answer. For each one, choose the option that allows it for this skill without asking every time.
- Knorra connector. Allow its tools for this skill so runs can read instructions and post the report. Where: Claude, Settings, Connectors, Knorra.
- Metricool connector, or Claude in Chrome. Whichever you chose for posting. Allow creating posts and reading results. Where: Claude, Settings, Connectors.
- ElevenLabs and Higgsfield connectors (if you added them). Allow making audio, images and video. Where: Claude, Settings, Connectors.
- Google Drive connector (folder mode only). Allow reading files. The flow never edits or deletes them. Where: Claude, Settings, Connectors, Google Drive.
8. Create the schedule
Copy this one short prompt and paste it into a new Claude chat. It creates the scheduled tasks for this flow. It is the only thing you paste in the whole setup.
- Weekly plan and schedule: Thu 17:00. Next week of posts, written and scheduled.
- Brand kit: When you ask. One brand kit every flow writes and designs from.
- Create these scheduled tasks for my Knorra workspace "your workspace". Each one uses the knorra-social-auto-pilot skill and the Knorra connector. 1. Name: "Knorra: Weekly plan and schedule". When: every Thursday at 17:00 (your time zone). Prompt: "Use the knorra-social-auto-pilot skill. Run task social-plan." Connectors: Knorra, Metricool or Claude in Chrome. Confirm each task back to me with its next run time.
9. Test run
Run the flow once by hand. This page waits for the first report and moves on by itself.
- In a new Claude chat, say: "Run a Knorra test run for Social Autopilot"
- Drafts two posts, shows them to you for approval and schedules nothing.
10. Live
The first good report has arrived. This flow now has a card on your dashboard with real numbers.
- This flow starts in approve first mode. Nothing outbound goes without your yes. After enough approved items, the dashboard offers autopilot.
