Connections give Paragraph reach beyond your workspace. 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 three are on the Connectors page: tools under Connections, social accounts under Accounts, and chat channels under Channels.

Social accounts

Connect X and LinkedIn accounts so Paragraph 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 Connect X or Connect LinkedIn under Connectors → Accounts. Paragraph connects whichever account you're signed in to.
  • Connect several. Add your company's account and your founders' accounts side by side. Until two X accounts are connected, the Accounts tab asks for whichever of the founder's and the company's is missing. They're shared with everyone on your team.
  • Give each account a role. Paragraph labels a new X account with whose it is, like "Company account" or "Founder". Choose Edit role in the … menu on its row to change it. When a founder and the company both have accounts, agent runs lead with the founder's post and have the company account quote it. After that, each account reposts the other's posts as soon as they go out. Reposts show on the post they share, and approving the post approves its reposts too.
  • Pick a default. Paragraph uses the default unless you name another, as in "post this from @company". Choose Make default from an account's … menu 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.
  • Disconnecting is the owner's call. Disconnect in an account's menu is there for a workspace owner, since removing an account stops every scheduled post that goes out from it. Paragraph can't disconnect an account at all, whatever you ask it.

To pick accounts for an agent run, mention them with @. See Agents.

If an account asks you to reconnect

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

Chat channels

Telegram and Slack let you talk to Paragraph outside the app. Each connected Slack workspace and each paired Telegram chat counts as one chat channel. Free includes 1, Launch 5, and Team as many as you like (Starter, which is no longer offered, includes 3). Reconnecting a channel you already have doesn't use another one. See Plans and credits.

  • Telegram. Message Paragraph from your phone. Choose Connect Telegram under Connectors → Channels, then open the one-time link in Telegram. The link expires after 10 minutes. The conversation stays linked to the same session in Paragraph, so you can pick it up later with the full history.
  • Slack. Choose Add to Slack under Connectors → Channels. Then mention Paragraph in a channel or thread and it replies inline, with everything saved back to your Paragraph session. Paragraph acts as the publication you connected Slack from, and a Slack workspace connects to one publication at a time.
    • Tag people and apps. Ask Paragraph to tag a teammate or another app, such as Claude, and it mentions them in its reply. It can tag anyone mentioned in the thread.
    • Take work from other apps. Other apps can mention Paragraph to hand it work, like drafting a post. It drafts for them, but nothing is published or sent until a person in the thread approves it. To prevent two apps from replying to each other forever, Paragraph answers up to 10 app requests per thread each day.
  • Disconnect a channel. Choose Disconnect in the … menu on its row. Paragraph stops answering there, and the channel stops counting toward your plan. Anyone on your team can disconnect Telegram, and owners and admins can disconnect Slack.

Tools via MCP

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard for connecting AI agents to outside tools. Connect a service over MCP and Paragraph can use it in chat and in automations, and your Changelog agent can read from it while it researches a story.

Connectors → Connections lists what you've connected, then the most popular providers. Search there to find any of more than 600 remote MCP servers that work with Paragraph, and select one to connect it. Select a connected tool to choose which of its tools Paragraph may use. Popular examples:

ProviderWhat Paragraph gets
GitHubRepositories, issues, and pull requests
LinearIssues, projects, and comments
NotionPages, databases, and workspace search
GranolaMeeting notes and transcripts
AirtableBases, tables, and records

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

Some services, like Slack, HubSpot, and Canva, only let apps they've approved connect to their MCP servers, so you won't find them in the list yet. Choose Request an integration to ask for one.

GitHub

GitHub asks which account or organization to install Paragraph on, and whether it can read every repository or only the ones you choose. Paragraph 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. Paragraph reaches those repositories once they approve. Until then, the repository field shows the request as waiting, with a message you can copy and send the owner. Choose Check again after they approve.

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

Linear

On a paid plan, your Changelog agent also reads what your team records in Linear, through the same connection: issues marked done, projects completed, and project and initiative updates. It adds them to your Ideas next to the code changes that built the same thing, and leaves out who worked on them. An entry in Linear can start an idea on its own, such as a project update that explains a decision. When the Changelog writes about shipped work, its draft still only says what the code confirms, and it puts what Linear says in its own words rather than quoting it. To stop it, turn off the list_issues, list_projects, and get_status_updates tools on the Linear connection.

Custom MCP servers

To connect any other remote MCP server, choose Add by URL under Connectors → Connections and give its URL and sign-in 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 Paragraph to use it. Having trouble with a connection? Write to support@paragraph.com.
