Connections

Connections give your agent reach beyond Paragraph. Social accounts let it publish and read on X and LinkedIn, chat channels let you talk to it from other apps, and tools give it access to where your work already lives.

All of them are managed in Settings → Agent in your workspace.

Social accountsCopy Anchor Link

Connect X and LinkedIn accounts so your agent can publish approved posts there. Posting to X and LinkedIn is available on every plan.

• Add an account. Sign in to it on X or LinkedIn first, then choose Add account under Settings → Agent. Paragraph connects whichever account you're signed in to.
• Connect several. Add your company's account and your founders' accounts side by side. They're shared with everyone on your team.
• Pick a default. Your agent uses the default unless you name another, as in "post this from @company". Choose Make default on any account to change it.
• Choose per draft. Every X and LinkedIn draft shows the account it posts from, next to the Publish button. Change it there and that draft keeps that account.
• Invite someone else's X account. Choose Invite an account and send the link to a founder or partner. They don't need a Paragraph login. The link works once and expires after 7 days.

To pick accounts for a Playbook run, mention them with @. See Playbooks.

If an account asks you to reconnectCopy Anchor Link

X or LinkedIn can stop accepting an authorization you gave earlier, often after a password change. The account then shows a note, and your agent can't post or read from it until you choose Reconnect. Reconnecting keeps your drafts, automations, and history.

Chat channelsCopy Anchor Link

Telegram and Slack let you talk to your agent outside Paragraph. Each connected Slack workspace and each paired Telegram chat counts as one chat channel. Free includes 1, Starter 3, Growth 5, and Scale as many as you like. Reconnecting a channel you already have doesn't use another one. See Plans and credits.

• Telegram. Message your agent from your phone. The conversation stays linked to the same session in Paragraph, so you can pick it up later with the full history.
• Slack. Mention your agent in a channel or thread and it replies inline, with everything saved back to your Paragraph session. Your agent acts as the publication you connected Slack from, and a Slack workspace connects to one publication at a time.

Tools via MCPCopy Anchor Link

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard for connecting AI agents to outside tools. Connect a service over MCP and your agent can use it in chat and in automations.

Choose Search providers to browse more than 1,000 compatible remote MCP servers. Popular examples:

Then ask things like "summarize this week's Linear issues into a release post" or "pull the outline from my Notion page and draft the article".

GitHubCopy Anchor Link

GitHub asks which account or organization to install Paragraph on, and whether it can read every repository or only the ones you choose. Your agent reads nothing else. To change it later, use Repository access on the GitHub connection.

If you pick an organization you don't administer, GitHub asks the owner to approve Paragraph first. Your agent reaches those repositories once they approve.

A Changelog uses the same repository access to read code, pull requests, and diffs, so GitHub asks for nothing new.

Custom MCP serversCopy Anchor Link

You can connect any remote MCP server in Settings → Agent with its URL and auth method:

• OAuth, for servers with a standard sign-in flow
• Bearer token, for servers that use an API key (Paragraph encrypts and stores it)
• No auth, for open servers

If you're building your own tools, see MCP for developers.

After connecting a tool, test it in chat by asking the agent to use it. Having trouble with a connection? Write to support@paragraph.com.
