About social APIs for AI agents

A social media API is how an app or AI agent works with social accounts and content. The platforms here, including LinkedIn, YouTube, X, and Buffer, hold posts, profiles, and engagement, and their APIs let an agent publish a post, read comments, or pull metrics on how content performed.

Publishing in public on a brand’s behalf and reading audience data are the main actions, so a write permission that posts carries weight. Access runs on an access token scoped to particular accounts and actions. A governed layer lets an agent that reports on engagement read metrics without being able to post to a public account.
