Manage Late.co social media scheduling API — list, reschedule, bulk delete, and sync scheduled posts.

  • Works in 9 steps: List All Scheduled Posts → Reschedule a Single Post → Bulk Reschedule All Posts (Schedule… → …
  • Asked to manage scheduled posts
  • SKILL.md covers Prerequisites, Authentication, API Base URL and API Reference, plus 4 more sections
  • Calls curl and python; reaches getlate.dev; needs LATE_API_KEY

What it does

Late API is an agent skill from htekdev/vidpipe. Manage Late.co social media scheduling API — list, reschedule, bulk delete, and sync scheduled posts. Use this skill when asked to manage scheduled posts, clean up the Late queue, reschedule posts, inspect Late API state, or troubleshoot Late API issues.

Its SKILL.md is about 3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Backend & APIs. The repository describes itself as: CLI tool that auto-processes video recordings: transcribes, removes silence, generates captions, creates shorts, social posts, and more.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked to manage scheduled posts
  • Clean up the Late queue
  • Reschedule posts
  • Inspect Late API state

Example prompts

  • “/late-api”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in LATE_API_KEY

Workflow steps

9 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. List All Scheduled Posts
  2. Reschedule a Single Post
  3. Bulk Reschedule All Posts (Schedule Change)
  4. Bulk Delete Scheduled Posts
  5. Sync Local Queue with Late API
  6. Validate Late API Connection
  7. View Publishing Logs
  8. Inspect Connected Accounts
  9. Update Late Queue Slots (with auto-reshuffle)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 99a5378. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • curl
    • python

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • getlate.dev

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • LATE_API_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Late API loads about 3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 66 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,075 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~66
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,075 words (~2,995 tokens).

“Operational workflows for managing scheduled social media posts via the Late.co API (https://getlate.dev/api/v1). This skill helps you list, reschedule, bulk delete, and sync posts when the posting schedule changes or issues arise.”
