TEMPLATE · CREATOR
Social Manager. Draft, approve, schedule, and measure social posts across 8 channels.
A focused social team that owns the publishing calendar end to end. The Head of Social sets the campaign rhythm; channel specialists draft platform-native copy; the Approvals Lead routes drafts through your /approvals queue (filtered to Social posts); the Scheduler hands approved posts to Post For Me; the Performance Analyst pulls the weekly roll-up so next sprint targets the formats that actually landed. Built on the F-DP53 social schema and the post_to_platforms MCP tool — every shipped post is auditable end to end and metered against your daily velocity cap.

The 6-agent team that ships.
A real reporting tree. The CEO leads, managers own outcomes, workers execute. Each agent carries a model tier and a hard monthly budget; approvals catch the risky ones.
Total budget across the team: $180 / month

Routines
What runs on its own, every hour, every day.
Scheduled work, not chat. Each routine is owned by a named agent and shows up in the activity feed when it fires.
| Name | Cadence | Owner | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Daily drafting | daily | X / LinkedIn Drafter + Short-form Visual Drafter | Each drafter ships 2 platform-native posts a day from the weekly theme. Drafts land in /approvals. |
| Approvals sweep | every 4h | Approvals Lead | Reviews pending drafts in /approvals, leaves a reject reason on anything off-brand so the next draft self-corrects. |
| Publishing run | every 4h | Scheduler | Picks the slot, calls post_to_platforms, watches for queue failures. |
| Weekly performance review | weekly | Performance Analyst | Pulls /social/analytics roll-up, briefs the Head of Social on what landed. |
First week
What the first seven days look like.
From import to a colony doing real work. The ramp between 'live in 60 seconds' and 'running the business.'
- Day 1
Import + connect
Connect the publishing tool + Drive. The Head of Social sets the first weekly theme.
- Day 2
First drafts
Channel drafters produce platform-native posts that land in /approvals.
- Day 3
Approvals flow
You approve a batch with reject reasons; the next drafts self-correct.
- Day 4
Publishing live
Scheduler ships approved posts through Post For Me and confirms success.
- Day 5
Cadence holds
The calendar fills a week ahead; you're in the approval seat, not the writing seat.
- Day 6
First analytics
Performance Analyst pulls the first per-channel engagement roll-up.
- Day 7
Weekly review
Head of Social sees what landed and sets next week's theme from the data.
Integrations
The tools wired up on day one.
Every integration here ships pre-configured. You wire your own credentials at import: no glue code, no copy-paste. Every connector follows the same one-minute connect flow.

Outcomes
What changes after import.
Numbers from operators running this template today. Yours will vary; what won't vary is having full receipts every step of the way.
Best for
- Solo founders and small teams who need a steady social presence
- Operators replacing a part-time social manager
- Brands posting across 4+ channels with consistent voice
Worth knowing
- Off-brand drift — use Approvals reject reasons to keep the drafter on-message.
- Platform rate limits — the Scheduler retries within the daily velocity cap; raise the cap if your volume needs more.
